2007 Dodge Magnum Wheel Interchange

2007 Dodge Magnum Wheel Fitment Guide

Known OEM Fitment For 2007 Dodge Magnum

The specifications below are verified for at least one 2007 Dodge Magnum configuration. Other trims may use different wheel and tire sizes. Do not assume uniform fitment across all trims. Always confirm your exact factory size from your driver door placard, the owner manual, or your VIN build sheet, then validate changes with the on-page calculator.

Note: The presence of both an 18 inch wheel specification and a 215/65R17 tire size indicates multiple OEM configurations for the 2007 Magnum. This is normal when a model year offers several trims or packages. Verify your vehicle’s stock size from the door placard and match it in the calculator before planning upgrades.

How To Use The Wheel Interchange Calculator

The calculator on wheelinterchange.com lets you compare a donor setup against your 2007 Dodge Magnum and test custom sizes.

• Set Installed on (your vehicle) to 2007 Dodge Magnum.
• Choose Wheels from (donor vehicle) if you are evaluating a take-off set. This populates the donor wheel and tire specs for comparison.
• Use Custom wheel size to change rim diameter, width, and offset. The tool will show inner clearance changes, outer poke, and backspacing differences.
• Use Custom tire size to adjust section width and aspect ratio. When you change rim diameter, the calculator updates overall tire diameter in the comparison so you can keep it close to stock.
• Aim to keep overall tire diameter within about 3 percent of your verified OEM diameter to help maintain speedometer, ABS, and transmission behavior.
• Review caliper and suspension clearance in the output. If you reduce inner clearance too much or push the wheel outward excessively, the tool will show it numerically so you can revise offset or width.
• Finalize by matching or safely adapting hub bore, bolt pattern, and lug hardware to your vehicle’s specs.

Fitment Checklist Before You Buy

• Bolt pattern: Your Magnum uses 5x115. Do not use 5x114.3 without an approved engineering solution.
• Center bore: 71.6 mm at the hub. For aftermarket wheels with a larger center bore, use hub-centric rings sized 71.6 mm inner to your wheel’s bore outer.
• Thread size: M14 x 1.5. Lug nut style and seat type depend on the wheel. Confirm conical, ball, or mag seat with the wheel manufacturer and match the correct lug hardware.
• Offset and width: The listed OEM example is 18x7.5 ET24. Other trims may differ. Use the calculator to model inner clearance to the strut and outer poke to the fender as you change width or offset. A wider wheel generally needs offset adjusted to keep inner clearance safe.
• Tire diameter: If you upsize wheel diameter, select a lower profile tire that keeps overall diameter near stock. Validate in the calculator.
• Brake clearance: Some vehicles have larger front calipers with performance packages. Test clearances or use manufacturer templates where available.
• Load rating: Wheels and tires must meet or exceed the vehicle’s axle and GAWR requirements. Check wheel and tire load indexes.
• TPMS: If equipped, plan to transfer, clone, or program compatible TPMS sensors for new wheels.
• Spare compatibility: Confirm that your spare and jack points remain usable if you change overall diameter significantly.

Plus Sizing And Common Upgrades

Plus sizing trades tire sidewall height for larger wheel diameter. The goal is to maintain or closely match the original tire’s overall diameter while improving appearance and potentially steering response.

• Start with your verified OEM size from the door placard. Enter it as the baseline in the calculator.
• Increase wheel diameter by 1 inch at a time and choose a lower profile tire that keeps overall diameter within about 3 percent of stock.
• As you increase wheel width, adjust offset so inner clearance to the strut and spring perch remains safe while outer poke stays within the fender. A change of 0.5 in wheel width shifts each sidewall by about 6.35 mm; the calculator will show the exact inner and outer changes in millimeters.
• Recheck brake caliper clearance on larger diameter wheels and different spoke designs. Design can affect spoke-to-caliper room even if diameter increases.
• Confirm that new tire load index meets or exceeds stock. Do not compromise load rating for aesthetics.

Installation Tips

• Test fit each wheel on the front and rear before mounting tires. Spin the hub to confirm caliper and suspension clearance.
• Clean the hub face and center pilot with a wire brush. Remove rust and debris so the wheel seats flush.
• Use hub-centric rings if the aftermarket wheel bore is larger than 71.6 mm. Seat rings fully in the wheel.
• Hand start all M14 x 1.5 lug nuts to prevent cross-threading. Do not lubricate wheel studs or cone seats unless the OEM procedure explicitly requires it.
• Snug lugs in a star pattern, lower the vehicle, then torque in a star pattern to the factory specification listed in your owner manual.
• Re-torque after 50 to 100 miles of driving.
• Set tire pressures to the door placard cold PSI. Reprogram or relearn TPMS as needed.
• Road test at low speed, listen for rubbing on turns and over bumps, then recheck clearances.

Tools And Helpful Supplies

• 1/2 inch drive torque wrench
• M14 x 1.5 lug nuts matched to your wheel seat
• Hub-centric rings 71.6 mm ID to wheel bore OD
• Quality tire pressure gauge

FAQs

• What is the bolt pattern for the 2007 Dodge Magnum?
  5x115.

• What lug nuts does it use?
  The thread size is M14 x 1.5. The required seat type and lug style depend on the wheel design. Verify conical, ball, or mag seat with your wheel manufacturer and match hardware accordingly.

• Will 5x114.3 wheels fit a 5x115 hub?
  This is not recommended. The pitch circle is different. Use the correct 5x115 pattern for proper stud loading and safety.

• Do I need hub-centric rings?
  The vehicle hub is 71.6 mm. If your aftermarket wheels have a larger center bore, use rings with 71.6 mm inner diameter and an outer diameter that matches the wheel bore so the wheel centers on the hub.

• What offset should I choose?
  An OEM example is ET24 on a 7.5 inch wide wheel. Other trims may differ. Use the calculator to model inner and outer clearance when changing width and offset, then choose an offset that preserves safe clearances on your car.

• Why does overall tire diameter change when I switch wheel diameter in the calculator?
  The tool recalculates tire diameter based on the size you enter so you can keep the new setup close to stock overall diameter for proper speedometer and ABS function.

• What is backspacing and how does it relate to offset?
  Backspacing is the distance from the wheel mounting face to the inner wheel lip. The listed backspacing is 4.69 in for the 18x7.5 ET24 example. Offset and width together determine backspacing. The calculator shows all three so you can track inner clearance.

• What torque should I use on the lug nuts?
  Use the torque specified in your owner manual or service information for the 2007 Dodge Magnum. Torque values vary by model and hardware. Always tighten in a star pattern on clean, dry threads unless OEM procedures specify otherwise.
