Looks kinda small for 22s. Nice ride but the rims....IMO they look awful.
But as long as you like them to you!

Thanks but they are 22s and ill post a different pick so you can see. And by the way you're the first person I heard saying they are awful. Most people are trying to locate where I got them from.

Wow, I dont know what to say but it is your car and as long as you love it then more power to you. But honestly, the first thing pop into my little head is those things actually spin.

Sorry, not feeling the wheels. They overpower the rest of the car vs. enhancing it.

But as others have said, it's your baby. Enjoy.

That's what makes this country great, everyone can have their own opinion and are free to express themselves however they see fit.

That being said, I personally do not care for that style wheel but if it puts a smile on the OP's face every time he get's behind the wheel, then they were worth every penny paid in my book.

Carry on...

Thanks for posting this picture, I've been debating 22s and u just made my mind up. I thought 22s would look perfect as 20s look kinda small IMO, but I was wrong! Sorry I'm not feeling it. OEM style 19s with a drop looks illest.

As long as you like it that's all that matters! Keep up the good work.

Like others said, not to my taste but neither is okra

I think a good drop with some spacers and wider tires in the back would make it look much better...

For my taste, looks cartoonish. But, If you love it, drive on!
