I am at the point of ordering rims and tires. Rims are the staggered vipers in comp grey with Nittos 420S. The question is...how is the ride difference between the 20 and 22's? Can anyone that has had either chime in, or better yet if you have had both let me know your opinion. Thanks for your time guys.

(note:this is just a ride question about the two sizes, I don't care if you have had other rims in these sizes your opinion still counts)

You will notice a slight difference. Of course everyone's opinion will be different but the difference that you get in overall appeal is well worth the 22's. Just use a 265/35/22

Thanks for the answer. 265/35/22 would be up front and 295/30/22 would be out back with the 22 and the 20's would have 245/45/20 in front and 285/40/20 in back. I guess I will have to "sleep" on it. Sleep being a relative term because I actually work third shift.

Must be buying from factory reproductions. I just put my 22" viper satin black rims on with nitto tires last week. There is zero rub and I really cant tell the difference on ride but I'll tell you I notice the different on the look. 22'" look amazing compared to my stock srt8 rims. I decided not to go with the staggered set up due to tire rotation and also the cost of tire replacement. personal option

hope this helps! FR makes a great rims!! I also suggest putting in the wheel sensors at FR because of the cost of swapping them out and also the time it takes. good luck. PM me if you have any other questions.

Wow absolutely beautiful car!!! I will have a bit more gap due to my car being a RT but that picture has sold me on the 22's, I can fix that gap issue later. I don't have to worry about the TPMS sensor as mine does not have it. Thanks for the info and pic. Very much appreciated!!!
