Default CHALLENGER SRT-8 featuring D2FORGED VS7 Wheels

Hey guys we always share new cars that we work on with our Clublexus family first. We are well aware that alot of you own more than one vehicle.

This time around its a 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT-8 6spd Manual, recently completed by LAVISH HABITS in Providence, RI.

These guys are certified car nuts just like us, and this baby is quite a sight to behold. I was looking at this car all day in different settings, and I can't stop thinking about the TV show Knight Rider! This is especially true when its seen driving down the road!

Overall this Challenger has that sporty, aggressive, and powerful look.

Here are the Details:

Very nice! I like the time attack look. 22s look about right for those gigantic wheel wells. How much do those weigh?

This car is really cool. Its a little too big for my tastes, but for some reason I still like it. I think its the overall effect of it. With the black and then red accents, the exhaust, and the manual tranny.

It also rides VERY comfortably. I was impressed.

Yeah I hear you, but for most people that buy SRT's try to keep their performance and not just try to fit the biggest wheels possible and add an ungodly amounts of weight. Not to mention to me that rear wheel looks out of place, way too big
