plj 59 Member 212 Member For: 19y 1d Gender: Male Location: brisbane Posted 09/07/06 10:16 AM Share Posted 09/07/06 10:16 AM I have the option of putting either 20's or 22's on the back of the ute. just unsure of the pros and cons of doing this. what are your thoughts?pros of 22's: with 4.11 diff gears it will bring the gearing back close to normal for the street but allow for the benefits at the track.unsprung weight: 22's are damn heavy, but look pretty trick.here are a pic of the two wheels on the back at standard height Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26712-20s-or-22s/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me they look out of proportion and I wonder if you begin to feel every tiny bump in the road.If I was given a free set of wheels right now Id have 18s.

Superoo Member 340 Member For: 22y 6m 27d Gender: Male Posted 09/07/06 12:19 PM Share Posted 09/07/06 12:19 PM Not that I'm going to ever have to worry about it but have you checked what tyres are available in a 22? I'd love to see the cost of a decent tyre at that size.I dare say the handling difference between 20's and 22's would be negligible.
