Looking for for a member that lives near Sacramento CA with the 2021 wheels see pic. I bought a set of replica wheels and want to compare them with the stock set. I feel the replicas are not as concaved.

Pic of wheel on car is the OEM wheel. Pic of wheel not mounted is replica.
Also the replicas i bought are the exact same specs as the OEM. 20x11 -2.5 offset. Only problem is i think the OEM ones are apx 1 inch deeper concave then these factory reproduction fr66 replicas.

I happen to have a pic from that same basic angle from the '21 I had. I think you are correct, the stock wheel looks more concave.

Yeah i ordered a set of the replicas but now I think i want to send them back. They said i would lose my $150.00 deposit.

@TailHappy

Hey can you by any chance plz take more detailed pics of your wheels? All around the car. I need to decide if i want to send these replicas back before i have them mounted and lose the money. As of now im only losing the 150 deposit.

I'd be more concerned with the weight. Usually replica wheels are far heavier.

 

[motorheadmike]

The replicas don't even remotely compare because the offset is for the narrow body cars.

These replicas are the exact same specs. 20x11 -2.5 offset. And are apx 25lb per wheel. Lighter then stock.

This is not true with these. 20x11 with a -2.5 offset, same as stock.

I personally like them, I don't think you can tell any difference.
These are by far my favorite Hellcat wheels.

You bought a set of the 20x11 fr66? Can you post some pics? There are some differences. The center is not as deep as the stock same with all the spokes.

 

[Mattm400]

No, I didn't buy any, I have the factory ones in my car.

Oh you have the OEM ones. Yeah i bought a set of the replicas and they dont seem as nice as the oem ones.

 

[Mattm400]

Have you taken measurements of both? I can measure mine if it will help. Center to outside edge??

 

[ChillxPoint]

Ok let me check that.

 

[ChillxPoint]

So from center to edge is 11 inches. But what im concerned with is that center cap bump is higher on the replica then your OEM one. I think because of this the OEM spokes and center is apx 1 inch deeper which gives it that more concaved look. Im almost 100 percent sure the OEM is 1 inch deeper then this fr66 replica.

 

[ChillxPoint]

Ok here are two pics. One is the black replica wheel and the other is the OEM goldish color wheel , same wheel as yours except off a 50th anniversary widebody challenger.
Check out the difference in the lug nuts. See how the lug nuts on the replicas are deeper in compared to the OEM wheel. Thats where that 1 inch difference is. I think i should just pay the 150 deposit instead of keeping the replicas.

 

[Slowpoke387]

I think you’re right. The centercap housing part is def higher/taller on the reps. Look at how far in the lugnuts sit compared to the OEM. Even if the wheels are the same specs offset-wise, that taller hump takes away from the concaved look that you (and I) really like. Shame because I almost ordered a set. Thanks for being the test guy, good feedback going forward.

 

[BrakeFade]

The replica wheels aren’t as concave. Dodge could sue the shit out of replica wheel manufacturers if they copied them 100%. As long as the wheel has some variation, they’re untouchable.

 

[sleeper_redeye]

Is there an issue with just ordering and OEM Replacement set from dodge??

 

[sleeper_redeye]

OEM is always top notch. Hard to find good aftermarket parts, sometimes you’ll luck out but usually it’s not the best. Not to mention the from - factory fit and finish is simply the best
