How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
Chrysler 300C SRT8 Touring OE Wheel Specs
The 2006 Chrysler 300C SRT8 Touring (Wagon) uses a 5x115 bolt pattern with a 71.5mm center bore. Factory wheels are 20x9J at ET24.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with everyday fuel efficiency
- A widely used size in this segment, so tire and wheel availability stays strong
- Keeps unsprung weight low for stable, predictable handling
- Maintains clearance for the factory brake calipers and suspension components
Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, 20x10J ET18 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Chrysler 300C SRT8 Touring.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
20x10.5J ET15 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Decision Guide
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 20x9J ET24 → ~5.94″ backspacing
- Flush: 20x10J ET18 → ~6.21″ backspacing
- Max: 20x10.5J ET15 → ~6.34″ backspacing
A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Chrysler spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Chrysler 300C SRT8 Touring? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
