Default GS 430 on 22'' Staggered setup

Wel I see alot of you guys here on CL with 20'' staggered but not many 22'' staggered so i went with something a little different.

My wheel setup is Klass forged wheels chrome
245/30/22 front 2 inch lip and 255/30/22 rear 2 3/4 inch lip
rolled my front fenders myself and there is no rubbing issue in the front or rear. Drop on NF210 springs.

I dont know the offset of the wheels but they sit flush.

What do you guys think is it too big or just fine? cuz i have a set of 20'' inch staggered Chrome HRE 540 8.5/10 as a second set spare that I can throw on there also.

enjoy the pics and let me kno what you guys think?

THANKS JIMMY

First off the car looks hot and so are the wheels. Your right a lot of guys on here dont run 22's cause they would prefer a drop and by there opinion think the 22's are to big for the car. Looks great to me! Im so glad you posted some pics of 22's with a drop b/c my summer mod is going to be 21's or 22's (three piece) and you just made the decision easy for me. How is the ride? Any rubbing anywhere? Job well done in my opinion man.

Nice, but then again it is a tad big for the car. Reminds me of those chevy boys on 24+

i think those are a good size.

but man those things must be a jolt to ride on. and those rubbers won't last more than a few thousand miles.

It was rubbing in the front very slightly but after i rolled the fenders it do not rub at all anymore.

the ride is a little bit stiffer but still very smooth.
