Default 22 inch wheels on a Camaro?

Has anybody here put 22's on their Camaro? if you have I would love to see some pics...........I just saw an 07 Mustang with 22's on it and it looked spectacular!....I'm in the process of customizing my 95 Z28 from paint to wheels and I'm definitely going with bigger wheels

There's a reason why they're on a 'stang...it's dumb. Bigger isn't always better.

Craby, what's an opine? Whatever it is, that's mine too.
Step away from the 22's!

Agreed. 22 inch rims on a car is really excessive. 18 would be plenty big and much more tasteful.

The car came with 16s for a reason. Stick with 'em.

22s are just wrong :/

hold and state as one's opinion : [with direct speech ] “The man is a genius,” he opined | [with clause ] the critic opined that the most exciting musical moment occurred when the orchestra struck up the national anthem.

K, but now you're using it in the past tense. That threw me when you first used the root word in the present tense which isn't used all too often, as opposed to using "opinion". I'm just opining here!

theres a reason people aren't posting pics of camaros with 22" wheels...because it didn't make sense with the body style of the time

the newer mustangs have different wheel wells to make it look better and they look like they fit better. just like when chip foose builds a car, the big wheels he uses look better because he molds the wheel wells to look better with that size wheel.

however, i think 18" are as big as i'd go as well on a car...i like a little tire with my wheel
