I am currently running on the stock Continental tires that came with my '06 Dodge Charger R/T.  I have done a few mods: K&N CAI, Flowmaster 40's without the resonators and Superchips Flashpaq pre-programmed performance tune.  I am planning now on replacing the worthless factory tires as they have gone bald very quickly.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I am going to stay with the factory 18 in rims.

You should try the factory Michelins!  I am at 22,000 miles and still going, and have LEAD FOOT.  The tires are quiet, and perform well, wet and dry.  I am not even considering any other tires when replacement comes in 5 or 6,000 miles.  The Michelins came standard on my Daytona.

Ditto -- way better than the Conti's

Michellin Pilot HX MXM4  255/55/18.  I wonder if anything larger will fit?

Opps -- 235's are stock.  I saw someone that had 255's -- who knows how they fit.  Some people are okay with rims/tires that look cool but do not let you drive into a parking lot.  So, no rubbing is key for me.

I am curious about the widest tire that can fit on the 18" rim and still not have issues....

would you suggest going up from my P225/60/R18 to say, P245/55/R18?
