February's Challenger of the Month Photo Competition Is Now Open For Entries!
Introduction and question.
Hello,
I'm looking at buying a 2010 Challenger SRT-8 that's brand new on a dealer's lot. Basically it's about $10,000 off MSRP with 50 miles on it. The story, according to the sales manager, is that the owner brought it in for himself and didn't drive it and has been hemming a hawing about selling it.
Now my questions...are the forged alloys the same size regardless of whether they are shod with all-seasons or a 3-season tires? It's on the all-seasons but if I were to order a new SRT-8 I would have specced the performance tire as this is a 3rd car.
I'm also considering a 2011 SRT-8 given the improvements but this deal is hard to ignore and I very much like the way the 2010 drives anyway.
Thanks.

Sorry...what I meant was whether the wheels are the same regardless of ordering the all-seasons or F1s as the F1s are slightly wide in the rear.
And it's $43,888...I'm in Canada;-)
Brand new, never titled, warranty hasn't started yet.
At least on the 09s, the wheels are same size all around regardless of All Season or 3 Season. The rear F1s are just a wider tire.
Unless you just have to have the latest and most powerful, it would be hard to pass up $10,000 off with new warranty.
I drove the 392 and the 6.1s at the Track Experience last week and I could tell the difference but it wasn't a stunning difference.
Then when I rode the hot laps with the pro driver in the 6.1, it was obvious I have a lot of improvement room before I can fully utilize the 6.1 I have now.:disgust:
