Re: Tire wheel combo

Is it a trailing arm rear suspension? If so have you converted it to a long track bar?

Are you planning on drag racing it? If then 22's are not going to be the best to hook up that kind of horsepower. You need taller side walls and some drag radials.

New cars can come with that kind of horsepower and low profile tires because they have sophisticated electronic driver aids not generally found on our Burbans .
