Looks like you cut a few too many coils off the rear Quote: Originally Posted by VLMuzza Quote: Originally Posted by NGAPLZ my mate is putting 22s on his vl and doesnt know his next course of action he has the wheels and tyres He bought 22s and now wants to know how to fit them? Not the smartest thing to do He WILL need coilovers in the front and extensive gaurd work. May get away with not having to shorten the diff, depending on the offset, tyre and how low the car is. It definately wont be a cheap and easy fitment HSVSS - original Walkinshaw with 22s Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

haha, I can see how 20x7.5 would be a nice fit, but 22x9 is a different story all together

GAS747 show's you can go 20's and still look awesome, IF you get the car sitting right. Anyone got pic's of 22INCH on their P.C's?

At a quick glance it looks like the fronts on 22INCH might be running a bit of camber..? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Jesus christ. With the 22's on it looks like an Aussie version of 'donk'. EDIT: Donk - A style of custom automobile popular in the United States. These cars sport gigantic custom wheels that are disproportionate to the vehicle size. Older, larger cars are commonly used in this practice.
