Default Rolling with Hellcat Wheels?

Saw someone local was selling their "20” OEM Dodge Charger Forged Daytona Hellcat SRT Scat Pack Wheels" and am just curious if they would be an option for a C7 GS? With all of the "cracked wheel" issues, I assume that I would have read about someone doing it already if it was a viable option.

They are listed as 20x9.5” ET 18.5mm 5x115 so even if they are compatible, they wouldn't be staggered sizes like the original GS wheels.

That would depend on the offset. Why would you want to anyway??

Won’t fit. All C7 wheels use a 5 x 120.65mm bolt pattern.

I wouldn't necessarily want to, it's not something I had ever thought of but on the other hand, if you had a GS and *IF* they did fit, I imagine being able to pick up a brand new set of forged wheels locally for about $1500 (including new tires) might be appealing to someone that is tired of fixing/replacing cracked wheels that couldn't afford to drop $4,000 on forged wheels.

Your going to need adapter and they are dangerous to say the least. Walk away and buy something else

yeah sorry this is a terrible idea

here is a smokin deal on forged
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...debody-c7.html

another option is C6 Cup wheels, they were well made, no issues
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...up-wheels.html
watch the classifieds on here, good things come up
'flow-formed' or 'rotary forged' wheel sets are available around $1500 iirc and are quite good as well.
Good luck!

Just to clarify, I have no intention of doing this, I was just curious.

You are apparently a bad person for having even thought of the possibility.

I'm sure they were engineered to interchange... GM and Chrysler work so closely together.

Wise choice since they won't just bolt on.

Better aftermarket options than a Mopar OEM set-up.
