Nice looking shoes, but it might be a LOT of work and stress driving them on a daily basis!

I would have to disagree. I've been rocking the 22s on my 6 for about 6+ months now, no problems what so ever even with people in the back. I've hit some potholes (not that huge) road debris etc. and so far so good. knock on wood. They actually ride ALOT better than the stock 19s... (its the RFT's that make the ride harsh)

Are 22s good from a performance point of view... probably not. Can you use them for daily driving... hell ya

my 2cents
