Help w/ G55 wheels and tires

Hello All,

wanted to see if someone could help me with this wheel question-

I have an 05 G55.

I'm looking to go 22". For those of you that did it, did you go 22 x 10 or 22 x 9.5

Also, what tires were you running?

I was thinking 22 x 9.5" w/ 305/40/22. Is this correct?

Also, what offsets did you run?

Thanks

Hey how many miles do you have on it and how are you liking it? I am about to pick a low mileage 05.

Do not get this SUV if ride luxury is what you are looking for. It is very rough, but thats the character of the car. Great power, Great torque, just not very smooth suspension

10" is better as it's wider but 9.5" is fine.

Tires to run is 295/35-22 or 305/35-22 is ok
