Let's see, 22's hmmmmmmm....
New brakes
lifted suspension
heavy duty control arms
4t65 tranny swap
tub out rear wheel wells
smaller turning radius
All that money and will look stupid as hell, the only real benfit to it is you won't have to rasie the front end to do an oil change

That dude did it  Any car you have to lift up for rims just seems wrong.

To each their own, but rims that large on this style body hurts my eyes. 22's on a nice SUV, sure. Even on a Chrysler 300. But it just does not have nice proportions on a mid size sedan.
