For the guys runnin 22's - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I can get good deals on 22's with tires. But my question is, what problems will I run into running them? I have a flip kit on rear of truck and I'm droppin the front as far as i can with drop springs and spindles. Will it be better to just run 20's or can I run the 22's with very little modifications?

they put truckrims machined to 22" on dually trucks and there lowered too usually there 35 series tires .
the tiresercumference (dunno how to write that but hey ) itselve isnt mush bigger as a offroad tire on a 15 inch rim the thing you have to check is if the backspacing on the rim itself is going to work
