The Dodge Charger is the only high-volume 4-door muscle car in the US. Tire selection must match the specific powertrain — a SXT tire recommendation is very different from a Scat Pack or Hellcat recommendation.
Common Dodge Charger tire sizes
LD Charger (2015-2023): 215/65R17 (SXT base), 235/55R19 or 245/45R20 (SXT AWD), 245/45R20 (GT, R/T, Scat Pack), 275/40R20 (Scat Pack option, pre-widebody SRT and Hellcat), 305/35R20 (Widebody models).
The Widebody package runs 305/35R20 at all four corners — a square setup, not staggered.
The 245/45R20 covers the R/T and standard Scat Pack — the most common performance upgrade size.
Best tires — SXT and R/T (235/55R19, 245/45R20)
Michelin CrossClimate2 in 245/45R20: the best year-round option for R/T owners. All-season capable, 3PMSF rated, strong wet grip. The R/T is a 370hp rear-wheel-drive car — all-weather confidence matters.
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+ in 245/45R20: excellent wet and dry performance for R/T owners who drive dynamically.
Michelin Pilot Sport 4S in 245/45R20: for R/T owners who prioritize dry grip and treat the car as a performance vehicle.

Frequently asked
Can a Dodge Charger Hellcat handle any tire brand?
The Hellcat's 707–797hp requires tires with the structural integrity and compound to handle that power. Budget and unknown-brand tires are not suitable for Hellcat-level power — the shear stress on launch will destroy inferior tires and create safety risks. Stick to premium brands with confirmed compound durability.
How much do Dodge Charger tires cost?
235/55R19: $120–165 per tire. 245/45R20: $140–200 per tire. 275/40R20: $160–260 per tire. 305/35R20 (Hellcat rear): $200–320 per tire.
How do I know when my Charger needs new tires?
On a rear-drive muscle car the rear tires usually wear first, especially if you enjoy the throttle, so check those closely with a penny. Watch for feathered or cupped edges, a new vibration, and grip that falls off in the wet. Summer performance tires also harden with age, so a set that's several years old can be due even with tread left.
Can I run all-season tires on a Charger year-round in Georgia?
On the milder trims, a good all-season or performance all-season is a sensible year-round choice for West Georgia and keeps you covered on cold mornings. The high-performance versions come on summer tires that lose grip badly below about 45 degrees, so if you drive one in winter, either swap to a capable all-season or keep it parked when it's cold. A local shop can help you match a set to how hard you actually drive.
