Hey I was looking at getting some 22" Rims for the Challenger and was wondering if I had to lower the car. Will it raise the car up to much just throwing some 22's on it?

all depends on the tire size bother! if your runnin the factory 18's i run a staggerd 22 on my charger with 9" in the front and 10's out back and the tires i run are 295/30 out back and 265/35 in the front and they have almost the same exact diameter as my 18's did within a percent or so, just a wee bit wider!!!

As Patrict said, it depends on the profile of the tire. One thing about going with a bigger tire is it will fill up the wheel well giving it a lowered look. A good tire shop should be able to help you out and work with ya.

I installed 22 on mine, and no lift or lower. In fact I am going to put mine up for sale if interested ? Attachments:

I did notice my challenger raised up a little bit. The overall tire height between my 22 set up an the stock 20 set up was a 1/4" difference.

I also noticed mine raised a bit. I don't know all the specs, but I had to get spacers so they wouldn't rub when I back out. I will be selling my wheels pretty soon also. I got some new ones, but they need tires. I'm going with 20s instead.

Id just use the rims to look good around town and then take them off to race.
