I upgraded my S model from the stock 245/50/R20, to 265/40/R22. Wow, what a difference. And, no rubbing from what I see so far. Below is before and after.........

Did it change the ride quality at all? And what about MPG?

The ride quality is the same to me, I can only notice a very slight, and i mean SLIGHT, difference. I havent driven enough yet to notice any MPG, but I believe it will be minimal since the diameter is basically the same as the stock rims (stock rims 29.6 vs 30.3 with the 22”s).

Sweet. Thanks for the response. I’m definitely thinking about going 22’s. Shouldn’t be hard to sell the 20’s.

What’s the dimensions of the new rims? 22x9 or 22x10?

Hi, i am planning to run the same setup as you have, have you noticed any rubbing so far?

Where did you order the rims from? They look great.

Nice wheels!What are the off sets? And do you have a pic from the side profile to see how flush it is?

I would be curious how much your speedometer is off now.

Did you install TPMS sensors ? Or run regular rubber valve stems ??
