Made my 22" rim decision! (Part 2)

[Mordak]

trashguy, for these rims why do all websites recommend 305/45x22 tires then?

[DRTYF? (the imposter)]

yucky and fyi those ebay wheels are cast junk.

I have 22" rims, they don't mess up the ride at all... My tires are Falken Ziex's, they're nice, although I get some slippage in the rain. They are quieter than stock tires though. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

What tires do you have and what's the siz of them?

[trashguy]

you need a 325/50/22 to keep the stock diameter.
or in a mud tire a 35 12.50 22.

RAM - are those KMC Backseats? ANd what size? 22x10?

[RAM H2 RYDER]

I have Toyo open country A/T 325/50/22 and they are pretty close to stock height. I did loose some ride quality but I got used to it pretty fast.

trashguy, how do I get speedometer/odometer fixed?

what if i got the echelon rolexx 22", and 325/50/22 tires? Would speedometer/odometer be out of whack still?

it says stock tires are 315/70x17

mossinc, are the echelon rolexx good quality, or crap? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>


Here you can see how much the tire size will have your speedo/odo off. You can also compare different tire sizes.

I would definately not go for a smaller tire than 325/50-22 just because they will look small.

Mordak and Hummbob, you are clearly looking for some street looks. That's ok. Personally I like 22" but prefer the off road looks. Like the one below:

[Mordak]

Oh and since my speedometer will be off by 1.254% as shown at http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCal...?action=submit when going 60 MPH it will actually read 59.2 MPH, can the dealer adjust the odometer/speedometer to fix this? Would there be a cost or would warranty over it?

That truck above is just plain old nasty. The dealer accidentally put 33's on mine and the truck looked like ass. They kept it until the right ones came in. I wasn't driving that ugly thing around.

[Mordak]

KenP, I don't know anything about programmers at all...would they be easy for a 19 year old newbie to hookup and adjust them with?

How expensive are they? Maybe it would be best to just have dealer do it?

Oh and link to 1 if possible please, thanks man!

Bingo on the price with the smaller tires,plus its the size for the "bling bling look". I have these same wheels in the 20 inch size . There is not a noticable change in ride from stock size . I did have a few say the 22 will ride much rougher .

[HummBob]

I talked to a couple of guys locally who said that the 22's are fine, but anything larger will F*%K up the ride?

Any ideas on this anyone?

As for the looks, simply a personal opinion. I think 22's look SWEET
