I have a chance to buy some 17" Weld RTS wheels, which were on a 2014 Mustang GT, for my 2009 SRT-8 Challeneger. Will they work?

I looked at a bolt pattern website, it didn't list a 2009 challenger but it did list a 2009 Charger. And it didn't list a 2014 Mustang but it did list a 2011 Mustang so these results may be wrong but this is what it said:


2009 Dodge Charger
Bolt Pattern (in):
Bolt Pattern (mm):
Offset Range (mm):

14x1.5



2011 Ford Mustang

Bolt Pattern (mm):
Offset Range (mm):
Front Center Bore (mm):

Why go from a stronger, better looking 20" wheel to a smaller 17"?????

A 17" Weld RTS is a good looking wheel, and if he's going for the look of a drag wheel he won't be able to do that with 20" wheels.

I don't think that site is right. Mopar still uses 4.5 bolt circle (114.3mm), right?

Bolt patterns may line up, but if its an SRT-8, the Mustang wheel may not clear the brakes.

Agree, but there will be a lot of snickering when people walk by a Challenger and see Mustang wheels on it. Just hope he's ready to deal with that.

This tells me that you have no clue what a Weld RTS wheel is.

I used some older mustang wheels on my car-'68 Barracuda, the backspacing caused me to get some custom studded wheel adapters for the rear. The front I need to cut the center register on the rotors, just a few thou. The center caps stuck out past the face of the wheel, I've worked out a solution, I'll post some pics later, but it is a compromise and I'm not sure it will apply to the Weld wheel. BTW, I really like those Weld RTS wheels up The best bet is to mount them up before you buy or carefully measure YOUR car, these are mass produced and tolerances can and will cause problems. twocents

No, they won't fit. Bolt pattern isn't correct, back spacing is wrong and they are too small to fit over the brakes.

Oops! Missed the fact these were aftermarket parts.
