So is there any chance there is a ‘16 slingshot replica that matches the factory rim and just happens to be the perfect offset for these flares? I’d like to go as wide as possible for the rear but really like the stock rim design.
@Hunter might be able to help.

No there isn't. You would need to use a spacer to bring the wheels out further. I wanted to go this way originally when I installed mine but no options were available other than spacers so I went with custom wheels.

BC Forged RS41 wheels. 20x10.5 in the front and 20x11.5 in the rear. These pictures were taken before the BMR adjustable suspension was installed so in the rear picture you can see the camber is off on both rear tires but the right rear was the worst, it has now been adjusted and camber is within factory spec.

I forgot those pics were also taken before installing the ZL1 splash guards. I need to take some current pics with the splash guards installed and wheels have now been powder coated gloss black instead of matte black in the pics above.

I've posted this pic several times before but here's the difference between a stock 275/40/20 Pirelli All Season, 305/35/20 Continental ExtremeContact Sport, and 335/30/20 Michelin Pilot Super Sport. I run the 335/30/20 on the rear and a 295/35/20 on the front which isn't pictured here.

That looks awesome. So no issues with rubbing at all? Those are 315’s on the rear? You nailed what I’m going for.

Ya know it's funny. The difference between 305 to 315 is not that dramatic. But the diff between the 315 to 335 is huge. That thing is monsterous.

Thank you for the help I really appreciate it. If I go with those rims do I have to specify a offset when ordering to fit the 335’s?

I misspoke above, the Continental in the middle is a 305/35/20, not a 315/35/20. My fault, I will go fix the original post. My brain was thinking 315/35 because that's what we run on my wife's Hellcat Charger on the rear. These tires were 305/35's on the back of my Challenger Hellcat. The tire width is really noticeable about every 30mm in width.

Yes you will need a specific offset. Bill Phillips at Phillips Performance can tell you the offset or if you decide to go with Triumph wheels, they know the offset to work with these flares also.

Read @Blkout
All his information is spot on.
With flares I also have 20 x 11.5 (30/335) on rear and 20 x 10 on front, will need to dig up (or look at) size.
Biz @TRIUMPH
And Bill at Phillips Flares worked together to come up with the correct offset on wheels.
Before that I had 10.5 reps on rear with 3/4 inch passthru spacers on front and rear.

Ok, got them installed. It took a little Afro Engineering to make the ZL1 rock guards work. There was 0C772935-7588-4465-83D4-777E9C727BA4.jpeg 3FB2C280-59F7-4BBF-B938-EEAF37274F97.jpeg
some interference at top bolt and Lil Devils. Easy fix just removed a little material.

Yea, you have to do a little modification to make the ZL1 splash guards work but nothing crazy.

Looks great Paladin06! This is the way the “widebody” should have come from the factory. I really like how they don’t interfere with the classic lines of the challenger. Are those wheels the BC Forged RS41’s as well?
