Hello,

I wanted to get some feedback on a set of 22" wheels I am looking to purchase for my 03 Mountaineer. Here is the link to the wheels, below is a picture of what my Mountaineer looks like. Your comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks

I think those wheels would look good on your SUV. kinda expensive. maybe you should buy some offroad tires and jack the truck up. just my opinion
 






Its a good idea to get the tires at the same place you get your wheels. They usually do not charge to mount and balance them, which will save you around $100. Also consider the weight of the each wheel when buying. You don't want them to be too heavy.

As for the wheel, I'm not digging the chrome color.
 






i realt dont care for them in chrome but then again im not a fan of huge rims

remember you will be increasing your rotational mass and should put a brake kit on with lager wheels
 






Not my style, but they would definately look badass on your mounty, especially with a darker tint on the windows! :thumbsup:

Not really. When I switched my bullit wheels from 17's to 20's, I actually got 4-5 lbs lighter on each wheel. :thumbsup: Plus, whatever mass weight you add on the wheels, you will lose with lower profile tires.

They'd look pretty good on your truck. But why do you want em ta pick up chicks. Lol if your as old as I am and your hairs fallin out like mine you have a big pot belly like I do then nothing is gona help ya LOL.
Otherwise.. Theyd look good on yer truck
 






Not my style... but they are very nice rims.
If you're into big wheels, thin rubber, I'd say go for it. :thumbsup:
 






like the wheels, way too big for me. IMO those would look good in 17's with some 255/75/17's
 






yours looking at a really ruff ride with those i have 20 inch rims with 265/50 and there a ruff ride. your gonna be down in 45 if not 40s. i wouldnt go with 22s stick with 20s and keep some of the ride.

all of the rims in here are nice. Ive seen xfactors on a 08 silver mustang.

I say go for it as long as they fit your car well.
 






20's or 22's look good on an Explorer.Those look good. :thumbsup:
I have seen some with 24's and one with 26's. Those looked ridiculous.:thumbdwn:

I plan on doing black 20's on mine with 33's and the 3" lift from Roadbully.
 






Thanks for all the comments
 






they are ok i dont like all the little fake rivits plus will be a pain to clean but they are nice are they black chrome also thats diffrent
 






are those 17'' mustang rims ???


i would love those rims on my truck !!!
 






Do 24s.

Just fit 295/35/24 tires on my new 24's. Pics up in a week. I love it. No wheel gap, safe protection for the rims, it's great.

26's also fit with 25 or 30 series tires. My boy just did it.
 






nice mounty u got there
