I don't think it was so much that 22's wouldn't fit as much as 22's are too big for the car itself.

Good work on getting them tucked, but a bit too much wheel IMO.

Thank you for pointing this out! I was about to do the same. It's amazing how many people didn't even read the thread long enough to know that he was just trying it for the hell of it.

All I have to say is:
WAWAWEEWAH!! like two shaved goat uders. please make hand relief.

Liar is a strong word......perhaps you meant they were wrong....or were they? First pot hole might prove them correct afteral. Good luck....cause I think your going to need it. Enjoy!!:

Everyone in this thread who hated on his car should really take the time to read through his entire first post, because, as was already stated, he's still running his old wheels, and just wanted to see how 22's would fit.

lol... you do realize that the thread title is a line from Young Buck's song, Shorty Wanna Ride, and that he wasn't actually saying people were "liars," right?
