Follow these steps carefully
Work on a cold Charger — parked 3+ hours or driven under a mile. Read the door-jamb placard for front/rear pressures, press a quality gauge squarely onto each stem, and record all four. Note any tire much lower than the rest; investigate a slow leak.
Never use the sidewall maximum — it's a load limit, not the operating pressure. Refit all four caps snugly, and eyeball tread and sidewalls for nails, cuts, bulges, or uneven wear a rotation won't fix.
Read every sidewall first — Scat Pack and SRT Chargers often run wider rears (like 245 front / 275 rear) that can't rotate front-to-back. On a staggered setup, rotate side-to-side only, and only if the tires are non-directional.
The 245-front/275-rear stagger on Scat Packs is where DIY rotations go wrong — those rears will never go on the front. I read the sidewalls before the jack goes under, not after the car's already in the air.
Level ground, chock the wheels staying down, loosen lug nuts a quarter turn before lifting. Jack at proper points onto rated stands — never under a jack alone. Recheck after ~50 miles.
The Charger's TPMS relearns automatically — inflate all four to the door-jamb pressure, then drive above 15 mph for 10–20 minutes; the system memorizes each sensor in its new position and the light goes out. If it stays on, recheck each pressure cold.
Compact spare: inflate to the sidewall-molded pressure and confirm the jack and lug wrench are present and functional. Mobility kit: confirm the sealant is sealed and in date and the inflator powers up. Never exceed the compact spare's speed and distance limits.
A sealant bottle with a date on it is a use-it-before date, not a suggestion — expired sealant won't foam when you need it. I check the date every rotation and replace the kit before it's stale.
Drive 10–15 minutes at neighborhood and highway speeds; note steering pull, vibration, or tire noise. Confirm the TPMS light is off. Next morning, recheck all four pressures cold and correct any drift. Log the date and mileage, and repeat at the owner's-manual interval.
Test your repair before closing everything up. If something doesn't work right, double-check your steps.
