22" RGB5 wheels
Hi
Another noob question
I am thinking of going from my 20" spyders(275-45R20) to Champion Motorsports 22"RGB5(285-35R22),which I believe would look great on my blacked out pepper
I am a bit concerned about how the ride quality would be affected
When by myself I do enjoy spirited driving,so I can accept a harsher ride
However,when I will have passengers aboard,I can't expect them to feel the same way
I will also be driving cross country,during which I am sure I will encounter less than perfect roads,so I wonder how the 22s will handle it compared to the 20s
I post this cause I've never changed the wheels on any of my cars,so I have zero experience in this department
Any advice is much appreciated

The only issues I have with my 22" are the road wining streak noise HWY and have to be more careful when approaching pot wholes. Other than that I love it! The proportion of the truck looks even better with the 22's. Since I have the Tubi systems the noise is forgot. I'm thinking of increased my tire sizes to 315/20/22. But that might be pushing it. I wanted to have that powerful stance from the rear. Any thought on that anyone?

I could not agree more
I love how these wheels give my CT an added dimension,more presence and enhance its powerful look
Bad-*** in an elegantly sporty way
I love the ride more and more every day
Firmer,more precise,crisp and stable
All of the above which are most welcome during spirited driving
Last but not least,I love how my CT now looks more like a sedan than an SUV(that would make a nice title for a thread)

Thanks
They do give my CT a more massive appearence with a hint of "go fast"
It actually sits almost an inch higher,and with the extended wheel arches(painted)I am adding,it will look even lower
I love the sporty,but also refined, look with the wheels
Their firmness is helpful with the extra boost I am getting due to my GIAC tune
