Default Pics staggered wheel setups.

I currently have 22's but the suck for performance. I'm leaning towards selling them and going with a 18X11-12, 18X9.5 on the front. I just want to get an idea of what would look good, and what style wheel. I can run a drag radial with 18's that the reason for that size.

Thanks, Mike

please tell me those 22's are not on the Z28 in your sig

I have 22's on my truck and they aren't to bad. it's those rear tires that are killing my performance, lol. I fixing that tomorrow.

Rear tires now = 305/40/22
rear tires friday = 265/35/22

this time I'm going with a softer tire.

A 40 is going to look tooo!!! tall. Compard to a 35 series. I would try a 285/35 or a 315/30

I would recommend a 265/40/22 rather than the 35.

as long as you have 22s you will always loose power and gas mileage no matter what size tire. thats one of the reasons i got rid of my 20s.
