if you run 22'' you will have a tire about 1/2" thick....that sucks....i have 20" on mine and they fit nice. i also have more room too....coupe.

on the sedan it might be done but i don't think i would suggest it. it's your style so all i am going to say is think about fender modifications, suspension issues, i'm guessing the effect on the engine and gas is not much of an issue so yes, it can be done. is it worth the G? i'm gonna say no. i think 20 would be the largest i would go. maybe not even that.

I don't think they would without super low profile tires. It was a pain in the *** getting 19's with the fender's rolled, both front and the back.

I'm really not even sure what to say about your car. They do fit better than I thought, but your G has lost all sportiness. Looks kinda pimpin instead.

first of all, its not my car. the question was asked do they fit. yes they do. secondly, i have always been amazed at how some people are so caught up in how other people spend their money, to the point that they actually think people care if THEY are "feelin" it or not.

CYO,

You have no room to talk

Muffin boi,

It's just our opinion. You're on an online forum. People are going to have differing opinions.

I don't care how much money the person spent on it. I wonder why they went with oversized rims and why they don't care about performance or fuel economy.

my point exactly. opinions were not asked for. a technical question was. and comments should be positive, or constructive, not negative. to tear someones idea/project down, just because you dont like it is very juvenile.

Agreed!

But, if you were referring to SBD with that statement and it wasn't just a general one, I don't think he really flamed you or ripped into you??!!

Welcome to NICO btw!!

80+% of forum talk is bull**** and/or opinions. That is the nature of forums.

So on that note I shall add my opinion. I like my rims Light and wide. Could careless if they are above 17".

thanks everyone for all the replies and comments whether good or not.

I ended up buying a set valentino 20" classy looking rims for my car. Your right with all the pot holes and clearence issues 22" rims is just not the the answer. I live in Vancouver, BC and with all the pot holes we have its better to have these. They ride perfect on 255/35/20zr toyos and sit well after throwing teins coilovers in.

BRO WHAT DO YOU EXPECT? C'MON! ITS A FORUM EVERYBODY IS GONNA SAY WHATEVER THE HELL THEY WANT TO. SOME PEOPLE IN HERE ARE PRO'S AND OTHERS ARE NOVICES AND SOME JUST LIKE TO TINKER AROUND A LITTLE BIT WITH THEIR CARS. YOU'RE GONNA GET ALL KIND OF ANSWERS SO THE BEST THING THAT YOU CAN DO IS TAKE IT FOR WHAT ITS WORTH AND GET ON WITH YOUR PROJECT. IF YOU FEEL STRONG ABOUT SOMETHING, THEN SCREW EVERYONE AND DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO CAUSE NO ONE IN HERE CAN STOP YOU ANYWAYS. I HAVE A FEW THINGS DONE TO MY CAR THAT NOT EVERYONE IN HERE WOULD THINK IS WISE BUT I DID IT ANYWAYS CAUSE ITS MY CAR AND LUCKILY I HAVE NOT HAD ONE PROBLEM SINCE. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BUILD.

LONG LIVE THE G
