Not that heavy for a 22 inch wheel but compared to some of the rims i have felt they are.
They were around 3k for wheels and tires.....(285/35r22)

It'd look really nice if it was dropped some.. perhaps some airbags or something. the wheels are freakin awesome, but the low pro tires leave a nice gap. props tho, it looks clean

Looks good man. Throw some shackle's on the rear and then it would really look good.

Honestly...

The wheels are too small...looks like a 20, not a 22.
Fender gap is huge, but you said you have the lowering kit on order.

I'm not a fan of the wheels either. Generally speaking, I don't like black wheels. It looks decent in this case however.

Just my opinion, not flaming.

You need one of these:

IMO that's not enough sidewall for a SUV like that.

once you get rid of the wheel well gap, that truck will look badass.


glad someone else likes black wheels.........im so sick of seeing chrome everything.


im planning on getting some wheels just like that for my black 740il, but i need to go with a 19" for proper handling.

I like a little more rubber, but with the lowering kit it will look right on. Like the rims.

They look good, alittle wider spoke would have looked better though.

invest in some bigger brakes. Those bigger wheels will eat those rotors up.

Looks HOT though.

Looks really good! I lovt the black wheels. Needs to be lower IMO, but a huge improvement over the stock wheels!
