Pictures dont do it justice, car is a real head turner. I will be lowering it a bit more so the stance looks better. Just have to roll fenders a bit

Is this your daily driver? How are the wheels holding up?

The new tires and wheels combo must be a 20 lbs./wheel heavier than stock setup. I've been there before and I did not like the more frequent trip to the gas station - not to mention suspension wear and tear. I also lost the getup and go feeling due to the planted/unsprang weight on the wheels. Unless the new wheels are light weight, then 22" inch wheels should not anchor the car to the ground. 'Very nice looking wheels indeed!

3 piece wheels are very light.... But chances are if Im lowered on 22s with a bit aggressive set up chances are I can care less about get up and go. For me as long as I can go 120mph on my way to vegas and not feel it on my rubberband stretched tires! Which has been done, then Im ok. The beamer racers can rev and they fly by me all they want and get tickets for exceeding the speed limit. Im A ok with just enoying my BIG wheels and rubberband tires.
