Hi All,

Hope everybody is getting ready for spring and rim time!! I am going to be buying wheels right away and just wanted peoples opinion on going with this wheel below and also 22" in general, and has anybody ever had any issues with rubbing in the front with the sizes 265/35/22??

I've seen plenty of 22's and I think they look great. I stuck with 20 only because of the roads.
Before you spend allot of time on these you might want to confirm they come in our size. Those showed are 6 lug

I like those!!
Those were a set I wanted to buy but they didn't make them in the offset I wanted for AWD.

Beautiful rims.
Weight is a BIG concern when going to 22" wheels.
A lot of people go with their fav rims without looking at the weight, and that is why you hear so much about 22" wheels taking away so much performance.
Lightweight 22" rims are costly, however. If your roads are smooth, and you aren't too concerned about performance, weight isn't too bad a deal.
Otherwise you might be justified to spend the extra $$ on 3-pc.

I have 265s in the front and no problems at all. You could probly go wider for the heck of it if you ever wanted to and rubbing wouldnt be a concern. I would stop at 285s though:)

new set of whells that are close to me and i wont have to pay for shipping. Only issue is that I do not know if these will actually fit on my Magnum. cost is $1800.

Set of 4 like new 22" Voodoo Omen 408 Chrome rims with Lexani 265/35R22 extra load low profile tires.Tires still have nubs. Rims and tires have been used less than 2000K. Rims are spotless. still Comes with locking lugnuts and matching socket.

Bolt Pattern:
5x114.3
12mmx1.5

These came off a Ford Escape so i was hoping if anybody could help me figure out if they will fit even though the bolt pattern is a bit different.
