285/35/18 ExtremeContact DW
All I have to say these tires are one of the best tires I have ever purchased. While running 285/35/18 completely transformed my car. Night and day difference from my standard set up. The tires are beefy stick pretty well- I'll take a few photos this weekend.

@ WBE55 - Are you running stock rims? If so, you will be very happy shedding of those heavy stock rims. You can actually feel the difference once you go with aftermarket rims. Dedicated summer tires FTW 
*how did you like that SRT8?
@sick430 - Agree awesome tires and the tread should rated higher then my old v12. The heads up display is hard wired into my fuse box along with my K40. It's a great mod as it's pretty dead on while cruising. However if you punch it takes a second or two to catch up as it's using the same GPS technology as Tomtom and Garmin. (same chip) I love it I never have to look down)

Yeah I really like the stock rims, I need to get the fronts re conditioned on the 99 they look terrible, I loved the SRT 8 , but not as daily driver. I did a few things to it , changed the exhaust to a B&B customer tune, drilled rotors ,etc. i believe the newer ones would be better as a daily driver with the independent rear end. I've got a few pics I'll post when I get a chance if your interested.
my neighbor has a new SRT in black. He did a few mods to it and it looks mean as hell. I've always been impressed with the looks of the SRT. Was the drive that stiff not having independent rear end? *re: reconditioning they run pretty cheap now around $100-$150
