275/40R20 — what fits & what to buy

Factory square on the narrow-body Hellcat, and the go-to rear for staggering a non-widebody Charger or Challenger.

FIG. 02— what 275/40R20 actually means
wheel · 20″ 275 mm section width 40% of width = 110 mm sidewall ∅ 28.7″ overall
Overall diameter28.7″Sidewall110 mmRevs/mile ≈704

275 = tread width in millimetres · 40 = sidewall height as a percentage of that width · R20 = radial construction on a 20-inch wheel. Two sizes with the same overall diameter are speedometer-compatible — that is the whole game in staggering.

What runs this size

Charger/Challenger SRT Hellcat 2015–2019 (factory, square), and the rear half of the 245/45R20 + 275/40R20 stagger on 20x10–10.5 wheels. Also common on staggered German setups — this size gets around.

Pairing this size front-to-rear? Run it through the stagger calculator before you order.

The picks

Max grip Michelin Pilot Sport 4S

If the fronts are 4S, match the family out back — balanced breakaway matters more on staggered cars, not less.

Street/strip Nitto NT555 G2 (NT555R rears for strip days)

The family owners standardize on: driveable to the track, hooks at the track.

Budget General G-MAX RS

Wide, sticky enough, cheap enough to roast.

Always confirm against the tire placard on your driver-side door jamb and your actual wheel widths before ordering. Fitments here cover common factory and community setups — years and packages vary.

Good to know

Will a 275 fit my stock rear wheel? On the factory 9–9.5 inch Hellcat wheel, yes — that is its home. Pinched onto an 8-inch rim: no.

Wheel width window: 9–11 inches, happiest on 9.5–10. Upgrading a Hellcat? The usual move is a rear 305/35R20 on an 11-inch wheel — widebody clearance required.
