domino877, sell your car and buy an escalade. Tacky wheels and escalades go hand in hand. Actually any American SUV would work just fine.

22 inch wheels not only would ride like ****, but you would bend them so quickly it would be funny.

I've been seeing a lot of older Lexus SC400s with the giant wheels and lift kits. I keep waiting for 20 clowns to come piling out. It's like several years back when the big thing was to have super wide wheels that were like 14s, with the tire about 2 sizes too narrow for it. Looked completely idiotic but for some reason there was a group of people that thought it was the coolest thing ever. Same people with the clown mobiles today, I guess. Oh, and to keep on topic, ditto on the others that ask that you please not do this to an otherwise classy car.

LOL @ this thread. I'm even thinking the 19's that came with our car are a bit much and will probably step down to 18's once these tires wear out.

Oh have to agree.. I was looking around and think 18"s would be the absolute biggest I would put on... 17"s look better to me, but then its harder to find good tires in that size.

They won't fit without cutting up control arms and re-welding them shorter, depending on the offset. Like they do on the stupid chevy's, they cut the hell off of everythying then put on an S-10 wheel spindles to lift it. It will also throw off your speedometer by 10 mph. Completely stupid in my opinion.

LOL

Wasn't it Chris Rock that said black people will put rims on anything?!? I think he even named a toaster!!!
