Need new wheels...

[JDP]

...but I'm having a crisis: I cant decide between 20's or 22's. I've weighed the pro's and con's for each, but I'm still torn. I like the looks of the 22's, but I'll lose some power. I'm not sure if I'll lose much power going from 18's to 20's, but I'd imagine it wouldnt be as bad, and I like more power too. Right now my L is totally stock, and it needs some more *blang blang*and mods of course. Also, this topic has probably been brought up here many a time, so sorry if I'm beating a dead horse, but I need advice/help/ideas/pics/therapy. Thanks guys.

Hey
i dont know about the 22's. there really big but would probably look nice for show but i dont know how they would do on the dragstip. I was looking at some custom offset 20 inch american racing Torqe Thrust D's and i think they look real nice on the truck. just my opinion though

Hey Jason. Have you ever run 20s or 22s? I have. They handle and ride like crap. They look awesome if that's all you want. But they suck IMHO for performance and ride.

L.L.:thumbsup:

I must disagree on the 20's. Mine handle as well and ride as well as my F1's:coolman:

That's your opinion and you're welcome to it.

But I've run both and the 20s DO NOT ride or handle as well.
How can they? Very short stiff sidewalls= poor ride.

The swede is running some custom 22s on his L and they look good

I'm on 22's and I'll be the first to admit they ride like shit. Especially in the city w/ potholes, speedbumps, and pedestrians
As far as looks go, they can't be beat. However, I keep a couple sets of wheels for different uses. 22's w/ are for summer cruising, 20's for winter, and the stockers w/ Nitto's are for the track.

Im about to buy a set of 20's my self, and I personally just keep me a set of 15 inch full drag wheels for the track time. Thats why I love the L, just load the drags in the back and cruise to the track in style.

Thanks for the info guys. IOPNER, your truck looks sweet, nice wheels. I guess I'll go with 20's, they dont seem to detriment power or performance like 22's, but 22's look so damn good. :shrug:
