My new 22s!
After what can only be described as a ******* debacle with Centerline and UPS, I finally got my tires mounted and balanced and put the wheels on my truck. In short two of the wheels were damaged when I received them and all four were covered in swirls and light scratches. I can polish out the swirls/scratches but I had to send the two damaged wheels back to be repaired. There's a lot more to the story and I'll post it up soon. I plan to do a quick how-to when I polish my wheels out, I'll probably post the whole story then.
I love the wheels but don't think I'll do business with Centerline again.
*Disclaimer* I'm the worst photographer in the world so sorry for the craptacular pictures.
Wheels are 22x9" Polished Centerline Archers, tires are 285/35/22 Nitto 555r:

2005 Silverado - They are 18x9" BBS RWs with 255/55/18 Nitto 420s.
blue2003ls - Truck is only lowered 2" in the rear currently. I plan to go down another 2" front and rear.
One more thing: If there is a difference in acceleration or braking with the 22s vs the 18s I can't tell a difference.
Thanks guys!

Man that really looks great. My 2k is going to the paint shop soon for new paint. I was thinking of upgrading my 20" wheels. This post definately has helped me make up my mind.
