I am going to go with Nitto 305 on the back but am looking into using replica wheels 20x10.5 bronze ... ( brass monkey )
( I know they will fit the stock wheels ). I DO NOT drag race my car on the strip . I do like doing pulls on the high way and once in a wile light to light . I am basically looking to get more grip when I am already moving .
1, who makes the best replica wheels ?
2, dose anyone make forged replica wheels ?
3, do I have to worry if I do not use a forged wheel ?
4 , has anyone found any drew back to using a 20x10 replica wheels?
5, do I need to worry about my stock drive shaft ?

I just put Factory Reproduction replicas on my rears with 20x10.5, 305/35/. No drawback as of yet for me. I changed my drive shaft for peace of mind but most say the stock shaft is breaking at the track. Mine has lowering springs to reduce the wheel gap and the color match seems identical with the bronze/Brass Monkey.

Beautiful cat. what is the offset on your 10.5's? mine is 25mm and with lowering springs (Eibach) I need spacers to not rub the (fwd) inner wheel well.

Thanks!!

I ordered from Performance Plus Tire, Factory Reproduction wheels. Mine are 25mm as well. Did you do a 4 wheel alignment? My installer did say they rubbed slightly but after alignment it was fine and no rub.

Be careful of eBay wheels, but these look legit for what you want them for. 30 day return but you pay shipping unfortunately.

I wanted bronze wheels when I bought my Green Go 2017 Challenger. But the Brass Monkeys were not 5 spoke, so I passed.
But there was a recent group buy on this site, and I got the bronze color in a 5 spoke. 11" rears and 10.5" fronts.
315/35 NT05's for the rear, and hopefully 305/35 555R's on the front. Should have these installed late this month.
