24" SRT-10 truck wheels on a Gen II Viper?

24\" SRT-10 truck wheels on a Gen II Viper?

I was just wondering if the upcoming 305/35/24 wheel/tire combo will fit a GenII Viper. It would be great to fill our huge wheel wells, and the bolt pattern and setback might be the same between the upcoming truck and our cars.

What do you guys think?

You never know. I guess if we can have Dakota rotors on our current snakes, anything goes!!

Cheers,

a 305/35R24 would be a 32" tall tire! i dont think that that will fit on a viper (till you put a 5" lift kit on it!!!) the "Viper Z71 OffRoad" lololol

Seriously guys, I understand that it would be a tight fit but I've always thought that there was a big gap around the stock wheels, and the car is already low to the ground so dropping it down to reduce the gap would make speed bumps and driveways a scraping hazard.

I had looked at the 20" Startech wheels, but they are around $10k for wheels and tires, and the only other 20" wheels with 6-lug centers are truck wheels.

So when I saw the Ram SRT-10 with it's big wheels and tires it seemed to me that it might be possible to stuff the Viper wheel wells with the upcoming 24" wheels and possibly lower the car, ending up with normal ground clearance and a really aggressive look, but without spending a huge bundle of money.

If you took the word "truck" out of this idea and thought about how many show sports cars have 20"-22" wheels it seems more intriguing a possibility.
