...they put 22" rims on a 2010 Camaro. I was pretty happy to see my first 2010 Camaro up close and personal until I realized the dumbass that owns it put some hideous 22" chrome wheels on it. It looks like a flattened monster truck. I am TDY to Fort Jackson, SC, and wow, there are some ghettoed out rides here. But that's the worst one I've seen. Almost shed a tear...

The one 2010 Camaro I drove had the stock 19/20" I believe, and they were large ... can't imagine 22"s on that car ...

That's just sick! I remember before I pcs'd here I went to a car show in Fayetteville NC and someone had a Green '98 Camaro with 20"s on it and of course he had his two 12" subs in the back with like 2 amps and some other crap....sounded horrible! I almost threw up when I seen it.

They truly have no shame here. I don't know why I should be surprised, it is the south. I saw a peach (YES PEACH!!!) Dodge Charger with chrome 20's on it today. You just want to slap these people for ruining these cars.

LOL sorry man, it wasn't supposed to be. But I have to been to all corners of the country, and when it comes to cars, I've seen more ruined here than anywhere else. Otherwise, I'd have to say Columbia is a pretty nice place. No offense meant man!

I was only kidding, I'm from Texas not South Carolina. I went there all the time when I was stationed @ Pope, so I've seen the stuff you're talking about.

But how did it look otherwise....if they are 22 inch wheels sporting a 225-255 profile, then get that train off the streets!!! ahahahahaha!! But if they were a 305 then i'd have to see it for myself. I do not like the "Jeep" look on cars but some cars can hold it while not loking too goofy. Chargers do not look too bad with 285-305 22's on it...but it depends on the pattern too. I work with a guy that has a Maroon Charger with 22 and it looks sharp but to each his own.

What tire size is that anyway? /25? Must be a bumpy ride, not much air to catch anything ...

It wasn't the size so much as the fact that they were ghettoed-out chrome. The pattern looked hideous on the car, and would actually have looked bad on any car. The rest of the car looked damn good, I loved the blue color. But the wheels looked like they belonged on a hooptie with hydraulics and 16 switches..or however that goes

Let me guess, the price for the tires is inversely proportionate to the amount of rubber ...
