    This guy put 22-inch wheels on his Challenger. I don't think that they complement the car's old school looks. Do you agree?

    Agreed, I hate it. Or maybe I am too old to get it?

    This looks stupid. This makes the car look like a ricer.
    I have thought about replacing the 20 inch wheels on my 23 Blacktop Edition with something smaller.

    I don’t think they look so bad. I wouldn’t trade my Alcoas for them, but I’ve seen much worse. Fronts look like they might have a clearance problem, though.

    I would think those fronts would definitely have a clearance problem.

    I did the research, and a 22 inch wheel works on the rear if you get a wide, tall rear tire to go with it. I made sure Michelin made just such a tire, in my research. It may require some inner fender well massaging, but it would provide a very nice look and more contact patch for the rear.

    The front looks too Ghetto Fabulous for my taste.

    Those wheels appear taller than 22's (24's and 26's have come available which is taking it too far for me). As one who's on 22's they're not easy to spot. 22 inch on our big cars has become quite popular. A few examples. -2.jpg 36919093285_8311146df9_b.jpg 22.jpg
