Hi guys. Sorry for being so stupid, but is this a front or rear-wheel-drive? I thought the Charger was a rear-wheel-drive. Either way, it is normal for just one wheel to spin. If you could hold it, the other one would start to spin.

Can't be a cv joint cuz neither wheel would turn, unless they are used on a rear axle with the Sure-Grip differential. Even then I don't think the other wheel would do much.
