DODGE CHARGER & CHALLENGER WIDEBODY FITMENT
The Widebody Charger and Challenger (Scat Pack WB, Hellcat WB, Redeye, Jailbreak, Super Stock, and Demon) represent the pinnacle of American muscle. The factory widebody fender flares add 3.5 inches of total width, enabling truly massive wheel and tire combinations that exploit the HEMI's colossal power output — up to 840 hp in the Demon. All use a 5x115 bolt pattern with a 71.5mm center bore — unique to modern Mopar. Do NOT confuse with 5x114.3 (Japanese) or 5x120 (BMW).
Quick Reference
Bolt Pattern: 5x115 | Center Bore: 71.5mm | Hub Type: Conical Seat | Lug Torque: 135 Nm (100 ft-lb)
Critical: 5x115 is unique to modern Dodge/Mopar — NOT the same as 5x114.3 or 5x120. Always confirm bolt pattern before ordering.
20" Square — Street & Drag Standard
The widebody fender flares accommodate up to 12-inch-wide wheels without modification. A square setup with massive 315+ tires on all four corners transforms the car's straight-line traction and creates the most aggressive stance possible.
01
20" Flush Square
Maximum contact patch with massive tires on all four corners.
- Recommended Size: 20x11 ET-2 all around
- Street Tires: 315/35R20 Square
- Performance Tires: 325/30R20 Square
Why this setup: Negative offsets are standard for the widebody platform — ET-5 to ET+5 is the functional range. The 315mm tire on all four corners transforms the Hellcat's 717+ hp into usable traction. On a 4,400+ lb car with enormous torque, wider rubber is the single most effective performance modification. The square configuration enables tire rotation — essential when the HEMI's torque chews through rear tires at an alarming rate. Forged construction is recommended for load capacity at the Demon/Super Stock's launch forces.
20" Staggered — Drag Configuration
For dedicated drag racing, the traditional skinnies-up-front, meats-in-back configuration minimizes front rolling resistance for maximum straight-line speed.
02
20" Drag Stagger
Skinnies up front, meats in the back — traditional drag configuration.
- Recommended Front: 20x9.5 ET15
- Recommended Rear: 20x11 ET-2
- Drag Tires: 275/40R20 Front, 315/35R20 Rear
- Drag Radial: 275/40R20 Front, Nitto NT555 RII 315/35R20 Rear
Why this setup: Narrower front tires reduce weight and rolling resistance for straight-line acceleration. The Demon and Super Stock are purpose-built drag cars — they benefit most from this configuration. The narrower 275mm front allows the car to change direction more easily in the staging lanes. For road course or canyon use, the square setup provides better balanced handling.
