Re: 20 & 22 inch wheels
Man I normally don't like staggered wheels but some if these trucks just hit the nail on the head. I'm impressed they all seem to pull it off.

Re: 20 & 22 inch wheels
That's because many of those posted are slammed over the stagger. These trucks look just fine with a staggered combo when they are pounded.

I AGREE ABOUT THE STANCE ISSUE! THEY LOOK GREAT LAID OUT ON A 20/22 COMBO!HERE IS A PIC OF JASON'S LMC TRUCK ON 22'S FRONT AND BACK. IT ISNT ON AIR AND LOOKS GOOD WITH A NON STAGGARED LOOK, WITH ITS REGULAR 20'S OR THE 22'S! I CANT GET THE PIC TO WORK! BUT HERE IS THE LINK! |

Re: 20 & 22 inch wheels
I understand what y'all are saying about the staggered look if it's not slammed but I still think I might do it... I love it. I was planning on doing it on my Impala but couldn't bite the bullet on yanking out the ABS. I won't be able to get as low as these since I don't wanna cut up the back of my Blazer this much just yet... but I have a question for y'all. Sorry if this is a thread-jack but if I did run 22's all the way around like the last shot, are there any clearance issues with the a/c stuff on the passenger side? TIA

Re: 20 & 22 inch wheels
Damn... lol... I kinda wanted to pull the 22's off my car and put 'em on my Blazer. Guess I'll scratch that off the list. Can't lose my a/c... not that it works, but it will! Thanks for the response. Guess I'll have a goofy looking non-slammed stagger thing going on.

Re: 20 & 22 inch wheels
It really depends on how low you want to go, but yeah it's hard to keep the factory evaporator box with 29-30" tall tires.
Cheese- What size tires are on the LMC truck in that pic? Looks like 265/35/22's all around.

Re: 20 & 22 inch wheels
The bonspeeds were only on there for heatwave! I has 20's on it for every day travels.
The 22's had rubbing issues on the front factory inner fenders. If they were modified it would ride fine! Rides great on the 20 inch billet specialties. |
