Title: 78 stepside 22's
Post by: AusChev on September 30, 2014, 06:32:31 am

hey guys,

I like the wheels I have on now 15x10 with 285's all round, however I'd like to try 22's for something different with a car show coming up, is this possible with a static drop ? if so which rim width, backspace/offset and tyre size would you recommend ?
This is an old photo sits approx 2 inches lower front and back

You would have to run 22x8.5-9's to fit so they tuck up in the fenders.  I'm running 20x8's on front with 20x10's on the back.  Plenty of wheel for these trucks.  It's got a little bit of a rough ride.  22's would be very rough.
