I decided to put some Hellcat wheels on my DD (Dodge Magnum SRT8)

The HC wheels look so much better than the Super Bee wheels. Nice choice! IMO it's a shame that the Magnum was phased out. It's actually a mean looking wagon. I know the tire manager at a local Costco and he has had his Magnum for a few years. He loves it. It's a car that attracts your attention. Like your's.

Thanks for the praise folks. I was out in the field today for work (ie did a decent amount of driving) and got a thumbs up and a honk (the good kind) so it would seem other's like the wheels too.

Yeah, this is my second SRT Magnum and overall I've been very pleased with them both. The first one was much cleaner and more powerful (H/C/I & Vortech) but as a result of those go fast goodies was also less reliable (and more costly). I specifically bought the black one because other than exhaust and a CAI the powertrain was bone stock and had been maintained mechanically. The 6.1 is a robust motor and if taken care of generally won't give you any issues.

The SRT variants of the Magnum are definitely a rare breed. The only other V8 wagons available in the States are the CTS-V wagon and AMG's C63(?) but both those cost a fortune. I still hope to buy a Vagon one day, and was very seriously considering it a couple of years ago, but decided to build a detached garage instead. The only negative to the Magnums, and any mid to late 2000's Chrysler product, is the interior. The build quality is just crappy. But for the money they're a great buy IMHO and I've enjoyed this one more than I expected.

Very nice, I've been searching on google for any magnum with the hellcat wheels only one other person had ever done it.

Yeah, when I was trying to decide whether to get them or not I did the same. The only one I saw was not an SRT and the wheels were black and hard to really see the design. None the less, I love the design of the wheel in general and I'm generally a fan of bronze wheels so decided to go for it. Glad I did.

I agree but you won't find me spending the money to do such.
