  1. I have jeep srt viper replica rims on my 2010 , same bolt pattern . 5 x 5 or 5 x 127 metric . they are 20 x 9 inch and had no problems . Another guy on here lawdog has the jeep srt rims on his, should check with him . Most places will tell you that a rim wider than 7 inch will not fit , 9 inch fit fine 10 will need a spacer .

  2. We did a road trip to Columbus Ohio over this past weekend , around 1400 km round trip and averaged 9.2 L / 100km or 25.5 mpg . 3.5 L engine . Two adults and child with back full of luggage , A/C on and did 120 to 130 kph most of the way . I think that is pretty good , what do you guys think .

  3. 9 inch wide rim is about all you can do any more and you will have rubbing . bolt pattern is 5 x 5 standard or 5 x 127 metric . A 245 / 45 tire on a 20 inch rim works . I think the offset is + 43 but not to sure of that .

  4. I have been able to get mine down to 6.9L / 100KM . Hypermiling , letting off before a hill and coasting . It will coast for a long time without the speed dropping too much . Smooth easy accelerating .

  5. I read in a popular mechanics magazine how to set your side mirrors , lean to your left and touch your head on door post and set mirror so you just see back corner of car then lean to right as far as you can without lifting off the seat and set mirror so you just see the back corner also . You will be amazed how it will eliminate your blind spot. As the car behind you starts to go out of view in your rear view mirror it starts coming into view in your side mirror . It takes a little to get use to but I do it all the time when driving on multilane highways .

  6. I got them from Factory Reproduction wheels in California , bolt pattern for Journey is 5 x 127 or 5 x 5 the offset I think was +40 same as a Jeep Grand Cherokee . The 300 is a 5 x 115 . Most wheel company will tell you that 7.5 inch is as wide as you can fit on Journey mine are 9 inch wide with no problems , You will have the bigger brakes on your Journey but should wheels should fit the same .
