Wouldnt need wider flares or wider tires if they just made the thing AWD... :)
I could find a graphic designer that could probably redesign them in about 10 minutes, then mold or 3d print them. It isn't rocket science, so why make excuses? Gotta quit believing my lying eyes I guess...
This is more like a hot chick with a tattoo on her forehead. Why? Now that I've seen it, it's all I can see... Lol.
...Said no one in the history of the world, ever...LMAO. You should expect more for $100k.
Get a set of fenders.... Hellcat Air Dam....and rock the front runners...... Now, ya have a spare set of slicks... Problem solved....
Not a fan of the front flares....
Yeah, they could have made it a motorcycle too, and then it would be even faster. Everyone has opinions. I'm one of the tens of thousands of Challenger fans who hope they never change it too much, because it may then become "one of the crowd". The size and weight of it are part of the recipe that makes it preferable to many other cars. Roomy, comfortable, quiet, and better looking than the competition by miles, IMO. A great long-distance road car. Like many of the FCA/SRT products, it is really in a class of it's own, like the TrackHawk and SRT Durango. For instance, I didn't buy my Scat Pack to be the fastest or best handling, although it is the closest to a perfect car I've found for my current purposes. Yeah, the Mustang and Camaro were overall about on par performance-wise, but lacked big time in other areas that were important to me. I've owned dozens of performance cars, some foreign, and I like this one the best. It is the overall best performance car I've owned (close second goes to my 10 second C5). For $36K there was nothing new on the market that was close for me. To top it off, these top-dog Challengers (Hellcat/Demon) with all their weight, outdated chassis and "flawed recipe", are still the fastest of these types of cars. For many muscle car fans, they are the pinnacle. I can't wait to see what record breaking "flawed recipe" they cook up next! (BTW, with Alfa Romeo Quadrafoglio (or however you spell it), FCA has one of the best handling cars in the world so they could always build the car you are talking about with that platform!)
I guess most don’t worry about being safe and comfortable while going 10s
Buddy picked his up last night. Going to fill it with race gas and toss it on the dyno late next week. It’s a bad ass car for sure. Wheel flares in person are not to bad, but the front side reflectors need help. Lol.
I know they needed the flares to run the larger tire, but with the correct offset they could have made a wide tire work out back without the flares. I have a 11 inch rear wheel with a 305 and it sits dead flush.
I really thought the flares would have been “demon” only which would have been sweet but so much that. lol
Yeah guys have fit up to 315s pretty flush on back w/o flares. FCA wanted to be able to go 315 on frt though to get grip on the skid pad over 1g. I don't think anyone's gone beyond a 275 successfully on the front without spacers on a non flared car.
Yep!!!. 315 upfront without the flares would be a mess. I have a 285 in the front and that is about all she wrote.
What did you get on the rear of yours with stock wheels? I’m heading in the direction of staggered wheels on mine. This is what I’m leaning towards. 20x10.5 rear and 20x9 front. They don’t disrupt the flow of the car.

Never washed. Lol. Seller forgot about full blown water leak testing at factory.
Nice. 840!
getting ready to go off roading in that? not a fan of those wheels on that car.
i wish, just an internet photo, yeah Raj was trying to get some guys to bet on saying the 9.65 wasn't possible
They are awesome machines. Are you sure those are 325s? I thought they were doing 315s.
Saw this on the road today and grabbed a snap. Over by the old Viper plant on Outer Drive. No badge but has the wheels. The M-plate is what caught my eye.

I don't think I ever followed up to this. I gotta go to a drive event and and about a dozen passes at 131. I'm not a drag racer. I think I had about 4 "clean" passes and ran a 10.2 (would have corrected to high 9s), lifted the wheels. The Dodge guys were in the 9s during demos. It's gonna take most owners a while to get use to the launch sequence, but once they do 9.65 won't be an issue.
#40. Maximum Steel.
I'm seeing that as well with the TrackHawks. Jeep officially claims 0-60 in I want to say 3.6. Owners are getting anywhere from 3.1-3.4 pretty regularly as well as one 3.4 UPHILL LOL
I'm honestly really thinking about ordering a Demon now... I think I need that in my life LOL
Yeah our run-of-the-mill drivers were pulling 3.2 second 0-60s with the trackhawks. And what did they originally advertise for Scat Packs, the laughable 4.5 second 0-60? With stock tires people were getting 4.1 and high 3's were only sticky tires away. Heck, I can't drive and got 4.5 with my manual scat pack, and they are sloooww.
There are several of those LB+Performance Demons out there with the same paint scheme.
9.97 for one the other night
10.8, no LC and normal tune with the full size fronts.
