Wire wheels would look stupid on an EK, let alone 22s - would look extra stupid. What are you trying to create? A 4x4 stance truck>?
If you want to put big wheels on, get some nice billets in about 17-18".
Just remember, with anything bigger than 15" or so, you sacrifice lowering potential, and a low car always looks better

There's a photo somewhere on here of an EK with wire wheels, and it looks quite classy.
Not sure about 22's though

When I lived in North Carolina I saw a lot of 80s Cadillacs and 60s - 70s Chevy Novas with these wheels. They were jacked up high like 4WDs and such cars were called "Southern Style". Very popular in the African American community.

Nice wheels..............but the car doesn't look right.
They are way too big.

i can understand width would be a factor, but how would diameter affect lowering potential (with 22's the wheel alone is probably bigger than standard wheel & tyre(AUST)Mod wrote:Just remember, with anything bigger than 15" or so, you sacrifice lowering potential, and a low car always looks better
) ? (as long as your tyre wheel combo maintains same rolling diameter)cheers, luke.
PS: i was thinking of this same style of wheel in 18's, my mate had some so we threw them on and they look like a really chrappy micro machine (proportions right out the window)
here's a photoshop of ek with approx 18-19"

This has to be a joke right. 22's???!!!!
The only style of car they truely suit are early to mid 60's Impala's...... and even then only when they are 13's true lo rider style.
I've seen them on an XY and they just don't look right and they lift the car so much that they look jacked up.
But your car your choice, but I can't see them fitting without major wheel tub rework and front guard clearance will be a big issue. 14's rub on a really low EK.
