redtomatoman Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I have some pictures of my 2011 with 255/50/19 Continental DWS Extreme Contact tires installed in my redtomatoman gallery. Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobitz68 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Nice DJ. I haven't upgraded yet, but plan on doing so in the near future... I will be doing more than tires though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecrazyfoo4u Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Just look around in this tire section. There's lots of reports of what fits and doesn't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biglu12 Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Thanks redtomatoman, Thanks lobitz68 are you gonna go to 20 or 22 or something or maybe lifting or lowering it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobitz68 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Thanks redtomatoman, Thanks lobitz68 are you gonna go to 20 or 22 or something or maybe lifting or lowering it? At least 20"... still contemplating 22". I had asked for people's personal experiences in another threas, but most of the replies were opinions about how it would look etc. Very little actual feedback from people who have made the switch. It is also unclear to me if the HHR lowering kit fits the AWD models... If so, I would be open to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've yet to look under our AWD and FWD Journey's (yes, two Journey household) and visually compare for differences. I'd love to put on a set of 20x9 GC SRT wheels, polished, with lowering springs. SIgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIgh. Haha! Do it... Should be able to get replicates of the wheels, or use a spacer/adapter to change the bolt pattern. I recall a post where someone had the lowering springs on an AWD, but have been unable to locate it to try and communicate with the poster. I haven't searched the internet very hard to find out, but they are definitely listed as FWD models by the manufacturer. EDIT: Or... buy them for the AWD and if they don't fit, throw 'em on the other DJ!! Edited January 16, 2015 by Lobitz68 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see after all the work I need to put into my Special this year. Owner of said DJ would *not* be thrilled with that plan lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
