srt8 wk's

[John]

I'd love to pick up a set of the SRT wheels for my Overland. Much better looks than the bling it came with.

Personally, I don't think WK SRT8 wheels would look good on your Overland. Are they still the same bolt pattern?

Post a pic of one and prove me wrong on the looks.

Gotta bump this. Found myself looking at another Srt8 grand, wk1.

Actually went to see it. I know you guys hate them but I’m torn on wasting my money on one.

I don’t hate them, they’re just useless and get horrendous mpg.

I dig the aesthetics, for what they tried to accomplish. Enjoyed throttling a new one.

I drove my dad's for a week while doing and axle swap on my XJ.

I hated the 20" wheels and low profile tires for daily driving.

Thing was of course awful in the snow. Managed to get stuck in 2" in a flat parking lot.

It was, however, very nice to be able to just punch it and hang on, and see everything disappear in your rearview. Very easy to get yourself separated from traffic or a bad situation with a road rager.

All in all, I was glad to have my XJ back when it was all over.

A dealer let me stomp on it, yep theyre quick. Was funny to move like that in THAT platform.

I'd never consider one since from what I gather, that entire generation of vehicle is shit.

WKs aren’t that bad, but if I was buying an SRT of that generation I would have got a Magnum, 300 or Charger since the SUV version can’t SUV and you get much better MPG and performance.

I pretty much always rule out any sedan. & I value the wagon for the typical SUV look in this case

 

[John]

Cool story bro. Not really sue what you meant though. So you’d prefer a SRT Magnum?

 

[Bart Giamatti]

Vs a sedan, yes.

I'd take the grand Cherokee over the magnum though. Just for stupid fun, it's more rare I guess, and I guess at this point I'm used to SUV seating.

 

[John]

SRT Magnum is way more rare. You rarely see them. The sedans and wagon are considerably faster and better handling.

 

[Bart Giamatti]

I figured the grand Cherokee would be rarest.
