Will 22's fit without suspension mods?

[David Griffith 2]

I was wondering if 22x9.5's would work with an offset. Does anyone have pics of this setup? I'd really like to see what the 22's look like without a drop.

Here's a link for the wheels I want. Check 'em out, lemme know what ya'll think..

yes. but the site doesn't give any wheel specs. so in this case it's a maybe. they'll fit, but probably with a fair amount of rubbing.

Thanks Spiff

I wanted these wheels a year or so ago and I decided to photoshop them on and they didn't look good. I got a 05 ST XLS. Tastes differ though.

 

[David Griffith 2]

have ya still got that photoshop layin around?

I have 22 x 9.5's on mine with spacers. Cant remember the exact offset though. My trac is dropped though but i have very minimal rub in only the tightest of turns

Lowered with a 1/2 drop but I'm going with a 2/3 this weekend. No rubbing at all with 265/35/22 tires. Most 22's fit fine with no drop.

i think i might lower mine how bad is 2/3 drop on rough roads i live in new orleans area and our roads suck or with the bad roads keep it like it is.

You havent drivin on FL roads... They built our roads with potholes included to keep drivers aware :angry:.

I have to laugh everytime someone in the south mentions the word pothole. When I say pothole I mean a hole in an actual road, not a dirt road.



Being from Western NY and now living in GA I have to state that you do not know what a pothole is until you have driven through one - and I mean all 4 tires were in it at once. Go to the link below and then click on the picture and see how that pothole had essentially spanned the entire lane at one point.



No need for speed bumps, the weather makes sure that no one can get rolling too fast without knocking your car out of alignment.



The South may have bigger insects, roaches, etc but the North wins when it comes to potholes.

Right, 'cause all we have in the South are dirt roads...

My friend lives on a dirt road :lol:. You may have bigger ones but the south probably has more of them. On my drive to and from work theres about 15 good sized potholes.. One actually knocked my tv out of the console. And I live 5 minutes from where I work.





Oh that one picture in the link looks like our roads but some go for half a mile at a time.

that link looks like all of new orleans when it is not under water:lol:

The worst potholes I ever saw were in Southeastern Turkey. Some of the rural roads were so bad that the pavement had completely broken up, leaving a mix of mud, dirt and chunks of pavement to drive on. In the cities, locals would mark the larger potholes by placing a large rock in the road in front of it. Also, during heavy rain storms the locals would sometimes remove the manhole covers to allow better drainage. Of course these didn't always get returned, which left a very bad hazard for the poor sap that didn't notice the big hole in the road.
