I hear you, but i like the looks of 22s with a little drop plus im not looking to drive this car like a maniac just cruise it. How harsh can the ride be, Im kinda used to driving a slammed M6 vette around town i highly doubt anything can be that bad. lol

Hmmm.. maybe your right have any pics of your whip. There are a few in the area that are on 22s that sit nice. I have a pic of one on my phone but cant post it (in a building with sucky signal). What kinda of 22s did you have were they a 3 piece wheel ?
