96vteccd5 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Well, since the rims that are in my sig below ended up getting some pitting from the wonderful salt roads here in MD I am torn between the options above. I like to keep a nice size profile tire in case I ever have to go off-road but I am not doing any heavy duty off roading. I am pretty sure that even if I looked at some 22"s my gas mileage will go to shit but wonder if it is a major difference from the 20s I have. FYI I do tow from time to time, I use my bed often, and of course the roads of DC or Baltimore have the issues. Thanks for your opinion.

f1ss Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 I like 20s personally, not a fan of big rims. I like the look of the SS with 20s on a 2/2 drop, and I also like 22s SS reps on the stock SS height. With what your describing I would stay with 20s so you can go off roading and tow. I know all too well about bad roads here in the northeast. I think personally think 20s are your best bet, still have clearance and wont have to worry about bending your rims as much as 22s. Just my opinion, good luck choosing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I know the 22 TBSS would look really really good, I just know with all the damn construction and how the roads will be for the next few years I think the 20's would be a better look. Thanks for the advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superredss Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I voted for 20s as well. Given that you use your truck as a truck, I think that 22s are gonna cause you more headache than good. Good luck with your choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARTYW Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 I have the same dilemna. I am dying for the TBSS replicas, but I just wish they came in 20's. I like the look of the 20's because they dont look "too" big, and I can also re-use my tires I already have. If they made the TBSS wheels in 20's I would jump all over that! Still, there are plenty of great 20" options out there. I will probably end up with SSS chrome replicas if I dont find any OE chromes when I have the funds. I currently have the factory 20" grays.
