2011 Dodge Charger Wheel Fitment And Interchange Guide | wheelinterchange.com

Known OEM Fitment For 2011 Dodge Charger

The values below are confirmed examples for the 2011 Dodge Charger. Some specifications can vary by trim, package, or market. Do not assume unlisted sizes. Always confirm your exact trim using the on-page calculator, your owner manual, the driver door jamb tire placard, or an OEM parts catalog.

Important: Wheel and tire diameters must match. The table shows an 18 inch wheel example and also a 17 inch tire size that cannot mount on an 18 inch rim. This indicates multiple OEM combinations existed or that not all trims are represented here. Verify your trim specific sizes on your vehicle placard and with the calculator before purchasing.

How To Use The Wheel Interchange Calculator

• Open the calculator and set Installed on to 2011 Dodge Charger.
• Set Wheels from to the donor vehicle you want to compare. If you only have wheel specs, use the Custom wheel size fields.
• Enter rim diameter, rim width, and offset for the donor wheels. If you have a tire to evaluate, enter section width and aspect ratio too.
• Use Custom wheel size to try different offsets and widths. The tool shows inner clearance to the strut and outer position relative to the fender.
• Use Custom tire size to keep overall tire diameter close to your stock tire. When you change rim diameter, the calculator updates tire diameter in the comparison so you can maintain a similar rolling circumference.
• Aim for safe inner clearance, no outer poke past the fender, and an overall tire diameter close to stock. Then confirm physically on the car.

Fitment Checklist Before You Buy

• Bolt pattern must be exactly 5x115. Do not force-fit 5x114.3.
• Center bore is 71.6 mm. If aftermarket wheels have a larger bore, use hub-centric rings that adapt the wheel bore down to 71.6 mm.
• Lug thread is M14 x 1.5. Verify the correct seat type for your wheels. Do not mix conical, ball, or mag seats.
• Wheel size and offset must clear brakes and suspension. Use the calculator to compare inner clearance to the strut and outer position vs fender.
• Backspacing and offset change together. More positive offset pulls the wheel inward. Less positive pushes it outward.
• Tire overall diameter should remain close to stock to keep speedometer, ABS, and gearing behavior in range. Use the calculator to compare.
• Load rating of wheel and tire must meet or exceed OEM. Check the door placard for load index and match or exceed it.
• TPMS compatibility. If equipped, plan sensor transfer or new compatible sensors and relearn procedure per the owner manual.
• Stud engagement. Ensure at least the full diameter of the stud in thread engagement on each lug nut.
• Spacers or adapters only if truly necessary. Use hub-centric parts and address stud length and thread engagement. Recheck torque frequently.

Plus Sizing And Common Upgrades

Many owners explore plus sizing on the 2011 Charger, but exact compatible sizes vary by trim, brake package, and suspension. Use the calculator and verify on the car.

• Keep overall tire diameter close to stock. As a general target, try to stay within a small percentage change to maintain speedometer accuracy and avoid ABS or transmission shift issues.
• Wider wheels and tires may improve traction, but watch inner clearance to struts and outer clearance to fenders and liners. The calculator will show both.
• Staggered setups can affect rotation options and stability control calibration. If considering staggered widths, evaluate carefully and confirm with OEM guidance.
• If using aftermarket wheels with a larger center bore, add hub-centric rings sized to 71.6 mm at the hub.

If you are unsure which OEM size your trim used from the factory, check the door placard and the owner manual, then validate with the on-page calculator and an OEM parts catalog or dealer parts department.

Installation Tips

• Park on level ground, chock wheels, and use jack stands on proper lift points.
• Clean the hub face and the wheel mounting pad so they sit flush. Remove rust and debris with a wire brush.
• Dry fit one front and one rear wheel to check caliper and suspension clearance before mounting tires if possible.
• If using hub-centric rings, seat them fully on the wheel before mounting to the hub.
• Start lug nuts by hand and snug in a star pattern. Do not lubricate studs unless the service manual specifies.
• Torque to the factory specification using a calibrated torque wrench. If you do not know the spec, check the owner manual or service manual for your exact trim.
• Re-torque after 50 to 100 miles of driving.
• After installation, test at low speed and full steering lock left and right to check for rubbing.

FAQs

• What is the 2011 Dodge Charger bolt pattern?

  5x115. That is 5 studs on a 115 mm pitch circle diameter.

• Can I use 5x114.3 wheels on a 5x115 Charger?

  It is not recommended. The mismatch can cause stress on studs and poor centering. Use exact 5x115 wheels for safety.

• What center bore do I need and do I need rings?

  The vehicle hub bore is 71.6 mm. If your aftermarket wheel has a larger bore, use hub-centric rings that reduce the wheel bore to 71.6 mm. The outer ring size must match the specific wheel bore, so confirm with the wheel manufacturer.

• What lug nuts does it use?

  M14 x 1.5 thread. The seat type must match the wheel design. Verify whether your wheels require conical, ball, or mag seat hardware.

• What offset fits my Charger?

  One OEM example is ET 24 mm on a 7.5 inch wide, 18 inch wheel. Other trims may differ. Use the calculator to compare inner and outer clearances when changing width or offset, and then test fit.

• My OEM tire size does not match my wheel diameter. What gives?

  Different trims can have different wheel and tire sizes. The example data here includes both an 18 inch wheel and a 17 inch tire size that are not a matched pair. Always follow your door placard and owner manual for your trim, and confirm with the calculator.

• What torque should I use on the lug nuts?

  The correct torque can vary by trim and wheel type. Check your owner manual or service manual and use a torque wrench. Re-torque after 50 to 100 miles.

• Do I need to reprogram TPMS after swapping wheels?

  If your Charger is equipped with TPMS and you change sensors or their positions, a relearn may be required. Follow the owner manual procedure or use a compatible TPMS tool.

• How do offset and backspacing relate?

  Offset is the distance from wheel centerline to the mounting pad in millimeters. Backspacing is the distance from the mounting pad to the inner wheel lip in inches. Increasing positive offset increases backspacing and moves the wheel inward.
