So what EXACTLY is your wheel/tire setup? How wide of wheels and with what offset do you use to get 305s under a Challenger? You said you had Nitto555 tires but never gave the specs on your rims. ;)

Here we go with a 2009 SRT8 with the KW V2.
We did the install of the KW suspension and the Hotchkis swaybars yesterday. 2 guys - 4 hours. The install is easy going.

The drop on the front is max on the rear I could bring it down another half inch.
But I'll lift it up again as with this drop it's not possible to get into any underground garage.

Take care - as you can see the car sit down another inch after driving it some miles.
