Thank you soo much- I am looking to get either a set of 18in Charger Rt wheels for it or a set of 20In Challenger  Srt8 wheels for it- Just needed to see if the bolt patterns would work- The 2006 Charger Rt wheel is 5x115 or 5X4.52, the Challanger srt8 wheel is 5x115 or 5X4.52 and the Cuda is 5x4.5 or 5x114.3- So would that fit? Has anyone done this yet or know if it could be done?

I know that the neon people like to take the small bolt pattern mopar (5 on 4") wheels and put them on the neons (5 on 100mm) and they seem to work, but that is a different combination of bolt patterns than these. I think the main concern is going to be spacing and the offset from the wheels. The charger 18's might work (doubt it though) but I am almost certain the challenger 20's won't work. I think that either wheel will look funny on a classic e-body though, but that is just a personal taste kind of deal.

You are doomed. NO way in heck the modern day wheels fit on an old Mopar. Not enough back spacing.   :grinno:

It was just a thought, since I could have gotten 4 18in Charger Rt wheels and 4 brand new firestone firehawk gt tires for $250 bucks, I will just got with an aftermarket mag style wheel.
