Y is it up for anyone to judge about taking class away from his car? he paid for it and he drives it. I think plenty of things that some people do to cars is cheezy but they do it. Why? because it their cars and their taste.

Yes it seems the discussion of 22s can politically divide the board into the "luv it" and "hate it" groups.
It's interesting to compare threads and to compare various boards.

I think this thread was brought back to compare it to more current ones on 22s.

I like the idea of 22's not those but like the 22's. i think that some of the forum members really need to think about what they say before they say it no one have the right to stereo type.

Mark my words...Bring this thread back to life another year from now and everyone will be commenting on how 20's look soo tiny and 22's will be in. I mean, I remember when I thought 18's were HUGE and I was rockin' the 13's, ok I think they were 14's or 15's.

BTW, I saw these 22's in person and they look better in person than in the pics. No offense to your picture taking ability wheelzplus.

Personally my brotha, I think it looks good! I just dont know how you squeezed them in there!!! I've got 21's and I'm still trying to figure out how to get them on and not rub on the front shock absorbers; I think they have a 18mm offset. It almost seems like my Michelins are too bulky (PS2 255/30-21) I changed to Bilstein PSS10 coliovers to see if that would do it, now the side wall is rubbing
