Even though I intended on installing my 22s sometime this year, it comes earlier than I thought. Those summer only tires are too sketchy while still winter here in MI. My 22s have All Season tires, so I put them on. They are 38mm offset, had to use a 5.5mm spacer up front to clear the Brembos. Those Calipers are MONSTER.

Drove across the street last night to snap a pic. I'll post a better daylight pic soon.

I like them on the SS as much as I did on the G8, just not sure if I wanna run them anymore. They may go up for sale like everything else I took off the G8.

I don't think it fits...but that's just me.

 

[Natedeezy]

Not for me.

Just be careful of pot holes!

Only on the internet did anyone not like them on the G8, Cannot even stop to get gas without getting compliments on the car. The wheels are usually the reason people even notice the car (The SS and the G8) and young/Old/male/female etc all compliment the car with the wheels on it. During the winter months and driving my G8 on stock wheels, Not one single person even notices the car or compliments it.

Must be a "Pictures don't do it justice" type thing. Or that for some reason people think only a certain "Stlye or Look" belongs on a performance sedan.

I ran an 11.88 during perfect weather on my "Drag Pack" in the G8 which was my best pass followed by an 11.90

we went to the track to play with a buddies CTS-V on an 86degree day, DA was horrible and it was Hott and Humid. Even so, on the 22s I ran a 12.4 and beat the CTS-V several times we ran a grudge race.

Squatting off the line!

Looks better in the Daylight.

Will get a few pics up later in the daylight. Like I said, on the forums is the only place I get the Neg feedback, so oh well. Can't please everybody. Makes me happy, so that's all that matters.

If it's attention you are after, those wheels will certainly grab it!

I think they look better on the SS than they did on the G8.

 

[LiquidR3D]

I like them, the compliments just adds to my daily smile counter.

 

[Loflyt]

^^^ Yep definitely look better on the SS than the G8. Really interesting looking at everyone's different tastes.

Diff strokes for diff folks not my cup of tea but it is your car.

As long as you like it - that's the main thing.

But IMO they look laughable on both cars. I don't think everyone that is "complimenting" you is being genuine. My guess is they are just trying to see your reaction and laughing once they are out of earshot.

PS - nice to see you keeping that racing crap off the streets. Be safe first.

Looks great! I'll stick with my factory 19 inchers. Takin my family around, can't sacrifice the tire..... looks great though!

 

[mchart]

IMO looks horrid and I can't imagine them weighing less then the stock wheels. It's pointless changing out wheels if you aren't loosing weight.

 

[Mad Max]

tasteful 20's that look very much like the stock wheels or compliment the car are about as far as i would go on a four door like the SS.

IMO the wheel wells on the SS need more fill. I would tint the windows within the legal limits and do the Holden conversion with the SSV badge. For me, that's it.

 

[envyz06]

ehhh?

 

[bonecrrusher]

Nice donk/bubble!

 

[LiquidR3D]

You guys crack me up! The car was not even lifted, oh well. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has em and they usually stink.

 

[STRTWYZ]

22's fill the wells nicely. I was thinking 21's with a nice shouldered tire would be nice with lowered springs or coil overs. I'm torn.

 

[z51vett]

Don't mind bigger wheels but those look what's the word gosh in other words that design sucks.

That's the second time you said his stuff sucks, how the h3ll are you a Moderator, I'll roll you old man.

 

[mchart]

Does it weigh less then stock?

If you can't answer yes to this question then you've failed.
