Smile rim and wheel size suggestions for CGT?

I am wondering what everyone thinks about 22s for a CGT? I have read about the problems with rough rides and potentially bent rims. Anyone have a good experience with 22s on a CGT?

Got any suggestions about rim that look great on the CGT? Too many possibilities for me to make up my mind ;-)

thnx

Love my 22"s. The ride is fine drive 96 miles round trip to work 3 days a week with it. No bent rims, great look and the ride is still smooth.

I do want to say tho that the ride was smoother with the original 20"s but nothing that would make me go back to the 20"s.

I have the HRE 944R Wheels. Brushed with the chrome lip. It looks awesome especially with the black color of the car.

Here are a few pics.....










Hope this helps!!!

That looks AWESOME! Lowering and OEM lower chrome grilles really accent the wheels well.

what tires did you pair with the wheels? Pirelli Pzero Nero? or do they typically come with some standard tires? (i have seen a lot of sites offer sets)
