Hey guys, just visiting from 3GS forum next door and I wanted to share some pictures of a friend's car. He just put on the 22" Antera 341 in Black and we oversized the tire a little to fill in the wheel well.

 

Here's a Side Shot

 

And here is one more of the front angle...

 

looks nice.. he should tint the front windows... its nice .

 

I'm really not a big fan of black wheels with the chrome lip or w/e, but that really looks awesome! The GX really pulls it off well.

 

lookin' sweet....i luv the look of painted wheels (any color) which compliments the body of any vehicle as long as its tastefully done.....good job!! btw, do u know what tire sizing ur friend is running to fill in the wheel wells?? pixs of mine coming soon!!

 

while oversizing does fill the wheel wells on 22's n is usually makes the car more comfortable as well but it does throw off ur nav n more importantly speedometer n the odometer. nav can be reconfiguered but speedometer can't be. so while u think ur doing speedlimit.. u mite actually get a ticket.. plus wrong travel estimates as well.

 

The wheels are 22's and we oversized the tires a little bit to fill in the wheel well. Some minor fender mods were required and the plastic inner fender needed a little tweaking as well. Tires were 285/45-22 vs. stock 265/65-17. The tires filled in the tire well about 0.8" more to "eliminate lowering".

 

Tire Comparison

That's sweet.. where'd you get that chart? I was pretty close..

My estimate... 0.8" x 2 = 1.6"
Actual difference from chart = 1.53"

Looks good! I guess all the meat on the tires make the wheels look as if they were 20"s

 

yea, at first i thought they were 20's too, because of so much rubber

 

I love the look of powdercoat on a black ride...
