About This Chrysler 300 S 2013 Build
We love featuring real builds from real owners. This Chrysler 300 S 2013 sits on a set of 22×9 / 22×9-inch STR 607 wheels, and the result speaks for itself.
The owner chose STR for a reason. This brand delivers serious quality and a design language that turns heads at every car meet. We see hundreds of Chrysler 300 S builds come through WheelFront every month, but this one stands out. The combination of the exterior with the STR 607 creates a look that balances aggression with elegance.
Fitment Breakdown: STR 607 on the Chrysler 300 S 2013
I walked around this 2013 Chrysler 300 S at the show last weekend and the stance immediately grabbed me. The owner chose the STR 607 wheels in a 22x9 setup at all four corners. That massive diameter completely transforms the profile of the LX platform.
We see a lot of guys struggle with offsets on these cars, but the +15 offset here hits the mark. It pushes the face of the wheel right out to the edge of the fender. You get that aggressive, flush look without needing a massive spacer setup.
The STR 607 features a sharp, multi-spoke design that hides the stock calipers well enough. We checked the clearance, and you have just enough room to avoid any contact with the brake hardware. It is a tight fit, but it works perfectly with the hub bore.
This car runs air suspension, which is the only way to pull off a 22-inch wheel properly. When the air dumps, the fenders sit right over the tire shoulders. You have to be careful with your bag settings to avoid ripping up those fender liners.
The barrel lip depth on a 9-inch wide wheel is not massive, but the spokes have enough concave shape to keep things interesting. You do not get that deep-dish look, but you gain a clean, modern aesthetic. It feels proportional to the long body of the 300.
Watch out for rubbing on the front inner liner during sharp turns when the car is at ride height. We noticed a few marks on the plastic where the tire catches during a full lock. A little trimming of the liner solves this issue for good.
The Chrysler 300 has a ton of wheel well space, so 22s fill that void better than anything else. You really need to commit to the drop if you go this big. Anything higher than a near-tuck look makes 22s look like wagon wheels.
What We Recommend for Chrysler 300 S 2013 Owners
If you want to run 22s on your 300, start with a 9-inch width like this build. It keeps the steering feel sharp and avoids the heavy tramlining you get with wider rubber. Stick to a 265/30/22 tire profile for a clean look.
For offsets, keep that +15 number in your head. Anything higher than +20 will make the wheels look sunken and weak against the big Chrysler fenders. If you go lower than +10, you are asking for poke that ruins your paint.
We always suggest a square setup on the 300 platform for better tire rotation options. Staggered widths on these cars rarely look right unless you go extremely wide in the back. Keep it simple and keep it functional for daily driving.
Do not skip on the hub-centric rings if your wheels are not bored specifically for the Chrysler hub. A high-speed vibration is the quickest way to kill your enthusiasm for a new wheel setup. Trust me, you will regret ignoring this tiny detail.
If you stay on stock suspension, avoid 22s entirely. They look like a donkey cart without a drop. Save your money for a quality air ride kit or at least a stiff set of coilovers before you buy the wheels.
Style and Build Analysis
The red finish on these STR 607s is a bold choice that actually works on this chassis. Most guys go for silver or black, but the bright red pops against the factory paint. It gives the 300 a custom, high-end show car vibe that turns heads.
I love how the spokes carry the eye toward the center cap. The design feels light and fast, which contrasts nicely with the heavy, blocky styling of the Chrysler body. It stops the car from looking like a boat.
The way the light hits those red spokes creates a sense of movement even when the car is parked. You can tell the owner put real thought into the contrast between the wheel color and the body. It screams personality in a sea of boring chrome rims.
We see a lot of "stanced" cars that look like rolling wrecks, but this one looks intentional. The proportions are balanced. The red wheels do not overpower the car; they accentuate the aggressive lines of the S-trim.
Compared to other 300s we feature, this one stands out because it takes a risk. Most people play it safe with monochromatic themes. This build proves that a loud wheel color can look classy if your fitment is spot on.
Why We Love This Build
This car is exactly why we love the car scene. Seeing those candy red STR 607s tuck perfectly under the fenders makes my heart race. The way the paint catches the sun while the car sits on the pavement is pure art. You do not just see this car; you feel it.
It captures that perfect balance of luxury and street attitude. It looks like a high-end executive sedan that decided to go to the track and show off. The whole build screams confidence, and that is what makes it special.
Stop playing it safe and get the wheels that make you look back every time you park. This build is all the inspiration you need. Just go for it.

Before You Buy: Fitment Checklist
We talk to Chrysler 300 S owners every day. These are the questions we hear most before they pull the trigger on new wheels.
Will 22×9 / 22×9-inch wheels fit my Chrysler 300 S? Yes, but fitment depends on width, offset, and tire size working together. A wrong offset means rubbing. A wrong tire size means poor handling. Always verify all three.
Do I need to modify my fenders? That depends on your offset and suspension. A conservative offset with stock ride height usually fits without modification. Go aggressive and you may need to roll or pull your fenders.
Can I daily-drive this setup? Absolutely. Thousands of Chrysler 300 S owners run 22×9 / 22×9-inch wheels every day. The key is choosing the right tire with enough sidewall to absorb road imperfections.
