    Haha no it's ok, i guess ill have them when i get a ws6 someday. Theres a few nice looking rims at tirerack but i wish there was more to choose from. Now i think when go and put aftermarket rims on my car im gonna go no bigger then 17's cause i heard the bigger they are they get heavyer and kill the perfromance.

    motor trend did a comparo a few years ago with a chevelle I think, and found the best performance was with 17's, 18's were much slower through the turns they said due to sidewall height

    Haha a jeep with 22's thats almsot as bad as a grand am. Well we all know that jeep is all for show cause i bet those rims would last long at all doing real trail riding, that would fold in half lol.
