2015 Chrysler 300 Wheel Interchange

2015 Chrysler 300 Wheel Fitment Guide

Known OEM Fitment For 2015 Chrysler 300

The following OEM specifications are known for at least one factory configuration of the 2015 Chrysler 300. Trims and packages can differ. If a value on your vehicle does not match, use the on-page calculator to compare against your door-jamb tire label, owner’s manual, and OEM service information.

Notes:

• Some OEM data for the 2015 300 shows different wheel diameters and tire sizes by trim. The values above may represent more than one trim or package. Always match what is on your door-jamb sticker and confirm with OEM sources.
• Backspacing changes with wheel width and offset. If your width or offset differs, calculate backspacing with the on-page tool.

How To Use The Wheel Interchange Calculator

The calculator helps you compare donor wheels to your 2015 Chrysler 300 and test custom sizes safely.

• Step 1: In Wheels from donor vehicle, enter the wheel and tire specs from the wheels you want to install. If you are buying new, enter the catalog specs.
• Step 2: In Installed on your vehicle, select 2015 Chrysler 300 and verify your OEM size from your door-jamb sticker or owner’s manual. If your trim differs from the known specs above, use your exact OEM numbers.
• Step 3: Use Custom wheel size to adjust rim diameter, width, and offset. The calculator will update backspacing and track how inner and outer clearances change.
• Step 4: Use Custom tire size to change section width and aspect ratio. When you change rim diameter, the tool updates overall tire diameter for an apples-to-apples comparison.
• Step 5: Review results for inner clearance to strut and brake components, outer poke relative to the fender, and overall tire diameter difference.
• Step 6: Aim to keep overall tire diameter within about 3 percent of OEM and verify brake caliper and suspension clearance with a physical test fit before driving.

Fitment Checklist Before You Buy

• Bolt pattern must match 5x115. Do not force-fit other patterns.
• Center bore is 71.6 mm. For aftermarket wheels with a larger bore, use hub-centric rings sized to 71.6 mm at the hub. Do not use wheels with a smaller bore than the hub.
• Thread size is M14 x 1.5. Use correct-seat lug nuts that match the wheel design, typically conical seat for most aftermarket wheels.
• Offset and backspacing must maintain safe inner clearance from struts, control arms, and brake lines and avoid outer fender contact. Use the calculator to compare inner and outer position changes.
• Brake clearance: Visually confirm spoke-to-caliper and barrel-to-caliper clearance with a test fit, especially with larger diameter or low-offset wheels.
• Tire diameter: Keep total tire diameter close to OEM. Try to stay within roughly 3 percent to help maintain speedometer accuracy and ABS behavior.
• Load rating: Wheels and tires must meet or exceed the axle load and vehicle GVWR specs.
• TPMS: Plan to transfer your TPMS sensors or purchase compatible sensors for your VIN. Relearn may be required after installation.
• Stud engagement: Ensure sufficient thread engagement on M14 studs if using thicker wheel pads or any spacer. At least the diameter of the stud in full nut engagement is a common guideline.
• Alignment: After significant changes in wheel width or offset, get a four-wheel alignment and verify no rubbing at full lock and full compression.

Plus Sizing And Common Upgrades

The 2015 Chrysler 300 was offered with multiple factory wheel and tire packages. Because sizes vary by trim, always start from your door-jamb sticker size as the OEM baseline in the calculator.

• Plus-one strategy: Increase the wheel diameter by 1 inch and reduce tire sidewall height so the overall diameter stays similar. Example process: if your sticker shows a 17-inch tire, evaluate an 18-inch option in the calculator and adjust aspect ratio to keep total diameter close.
• Plus-two strategy: Similar approach when moving up 2 inches in wheel diameter. Carefully check inner clearance and fender poke in the calculator and then confirm with a physical test fit.
• Wider wheels and tires: Use the calculator to watch inner clearance to the strut and outer poke to the fender. Maintain a safe scrub radius and avoid rubbing at full steering lock and over bumps.
• Staggered setups: If considering staggered widths, keep overall diameters matched front to rear on AWD variants and verify rotation limitations.

Important: Do not assume a single upgrade size fits all trims. Police, AWD, and appearance packages may differ. Verify against your specific OEM specs.

Installation Tips

• Test fit each wheel without a tire first when possible. Spin to verify caliper and suspension clearance.
• Clean hub faces and wheel mounting pads. Light corrosion can prevent true seating and cause vibration.
• If using hub-centric rings, seat them fully on the 71.6 mm hub and ensure the wheel sits flush.
• Use only dry, clean threads on wheel studs unless the OEM procedure specifies otherwise. Do not lubricate lug studs.
• Tighten lug nuts by hand in a star pattern, then torque to the factory specification for your trim. Verify the correct torque in the owner’s manual or OEM service data.
• After 50 to 100 miles, recheck torque on all lug nuts.
• Verify there is no rubbing at full steering lock, both directions, and under suspension compression before regular driving.

Tools And Helpful Supplies

• 1/2 inch drive torque wrench
• M14x1.5 conical seat lug nuts
• Hub-centric rings 71.6 mm
• Tire pressure gauge

FAQs

• What is the bolt pattern for the 2015 Chrysler 300?

  5x115.

• What center bore does it use?

  71.6 mm. If aftermarket wheels have a larger bore, use hub-centric rings to 71.6 mm. Do not use wheels with a smaller bore than the hub.

• Can I fit 5x114.3 wheels on a 5x115 Chrysler 300?

  Not recommended. The pattern does not match and can cause improper seating, stress on studs, and vibration. Use wheels that are truly 5x115.

• What is the thread size for lug nuts?

  M14 x 1.5. Match the seat type to the wheel design, usually conical for most aftermarket wheels.

• What offset should I use?

  A known OEM offset is ET 24 mm for one factory wheel. Other trims may differ. Use the calculator to compare inner and outer position versus your OEM setup and test fit to confirm clearance.

• My door sticker shows a different wheel or tire size than above. Which is correct?

  Follow your door-jamb sticker and owner’s manual. The 2015 300 had multiple OEM packages. Enter your exact OEM values into the calculator as the baseline.

• Do I need new TPMS sensors?

  You can typically reuse your existing sensors if the new wheels accept them. If buying new sensors, order parts specified for your VIN and perform the relearn procedure as required.

• Can I use spacers to make wheels fit?

  Only if necessary and with proper hardware. Spacers must be hub-centric, maintain adequate hub engagement, and provide full thread engagement on M14 studs. Professional inspection and test fitting are strongly advised.

• What tire diameter difference is acceptable?

  As a general guideline, keep overall diameter within about 3 percent of OEM to help maintain speedometer accuracy and driver assist systems. Verify with the calculator.
