Just a heads up if you're looking into these widebody kits! No regrets on my end doing it, just know what you're getting into.
LOL you must hate your car at least the transmission, the rev is quite much.
That hood is sick though.
I like he stroker better but to each their own. Both are a quite too loud for me.
Cuttin into the fenders is a good option but man it’s too risky for me
Yeah suspension coil overs are probably the best options
Worst case scenario just re adhesive it or get another kit. You pay to play with mods like this i suppose. Iv notices it doesnt seem to be as much of an issue on Challengers at least from what I've read it seems most people have the issues on the Chargers for whatever reason.
That car sounds amazing. This is something that the current generation of EV pushers doesn't understand.
That thing sounds ridiculous! Awesome!
I put a widebody kit on my charger hellcat too.. At frist I tried 3m tape that came with the kit but it didn't hold properly after a couple pulls lol. Im currently using an adhesive and overall it looks good, just have to adjust the flare on the driver side fender like his. Going to switch to a bracket though, i don't want to cut the fenders.
I’m just gonna redo it and go oem cause mine is bad at this point
Which coil overs are you going with
Been seeing a lot of the wide body flares pop off if they aren't apart of the fender mold. Yikes. Great video bro! As always. Looking good.
I love v8s so much, it doesnt matter if youre de-badged, by your exhaust note i know if its a 5.7, 6.4, or a 6.2. 5.7 weirdly enough has a deeper tone than 6.4 or 6.2. It sounds great
R/T life can you do a vid on theft and how to deter. Using the kill switch and metal plate they install by the shifter.
Been looking at swapping my magnum front end for one of these somewhere down the road.
I have 22's on it so I may not now!
Man that car sounded really good!!!
Nice cars!
If you cut the fenders for clearance there would be no rubbing I’m sure it’s hitting the actual fender and causing the issue!
Awesome, great to hear. Lol
Just buy OEM widebody fenders.
That car sounds good BUT I don’t like all the popping, sounds kinda rice
Bro u the only channel that’s telling the real about our wide body kite. It’s my from right side
Good things comes to those who wait? Dodge is offering widebody kits with warranties. No one seems to be reviewing/talking about them though?
Does his car have that stupid cackle tune?
Same problem on my 2018 Daytona. No regrets love the kit. The look is totally bad ass. Exact same as yours with 305 35 r20s. I actually had to trim up the flares on the inside lip along with the flare themselves. Also the 2 sided foam tape doesn't hold well and I had to use some high quality epoxy based glue. Mine still lightly rubs on bumps. Some further trimming and gluing. Possibly needing to come up with some type of push in clip fastening system.
Just cut the cars fellas, and call it good. I did mine, I never have these issues.
Best part
You can drive it longer then 2 hours
And once she drinks that petro
5 minute top off and back to slashing tires or u can go wait for three hours to charge.

That is one nasty Charger. Love it!!!! Loud too. Guessing the cops rolled in and said tone it down LOL.
If you’re not cutting your fenders then get used to it
Had my fenders cut when I had my Chrome/Carbon WB installed, it’s 17 RT Scatpack Charger. Initially I had it lowered on H&R, it was extremely low to the point I hit a deep dip in the road & damaged my front & rear bumper. I went back OEM, riding on 285/40 & 315/35 Atturo 850 tires and never had any sort of rubbing, it’s been close to a year now. If I would’ve never cut the fenders I’d be up shyt creek
Low pros give you a harsher ride. Just run a tire with a bit of a stretch and ditch the fender liners. I've heard of people taking a heat gun to fender liners and molding it to clear tires. Another thing you can do is run a tad bit of camber. Something tolerable for those cars. If you don't have a set of those adjustable upper control arms by Specialty Products by now, get on it! If you run a decent set of suspension, you can adjust damper to prevent bottoming out.
I decided to skip the widebody kit because of issues like this and because there's no way I'm cutting into the fenders. It looks incredible, but I just don't want to mess with the drivability of the car. Vicrez sells a 2020 front/rear conversion kit for narrow body's now – basically the new model look without the fender flares. So I'm seriously thinking of going that route.
I have a 2022 challenger, RT/TA, looking to do a widebody kit, anybody in Texas, the Houston area know any good places to have it done?
