Fu<king Pure Sex!!! I absolutely love the wheels and stance, you've always done it big with all your wheel setups it seems and this one is no different.

What's it ride like? It doesn't look like you have half an inch of clearance on the edge of the wheel wells.

Thanks SSkid and Snake_Skinner, I preciate it man!!!

Gunslinger09: It rides really well. I have to stiffen the rear coiovers a little bit just so on those huge bumps it doesnt rub, but besides that, no issues, even with the minimal clearance i have!

itsslow98: Thanks. I wouldnt change my stock 20" wheels for another set of 20"s. Aftermarket 20s dont fill up the fenders right, and they just look smaller than the stock ones. but thats just my opinion. These 22"s really fill in the gap just right to me! just my .02

I havent really gotten on it much, but when i did i didnt notice any difference as far as traction. It may be because the tires on my stock wheels were almost bald. The rears are 265/30/22 (yea i know, thats a little narrow) lol.

I added a few pics to the OP. I just got a feature with Awesome Sauce lifestyle.

I've never understood why people (usually ricers) like to get tires that are too small for the wheel. Looks completely retarded to me. Car looks absolutely amazing otherwise.
