Default 22" Rims ??

Possible on the 07/08 with the correct size low profile tire?

Or will alterations need to be addressed?

22 inch wheels belong in Navigators and Cadillacs...

Do humanity a favor and DO NOT PUT 22 inchWHEELS IN A STANG!

20 inch at most...

Searcha thread about the first mustang in chicago with 22 inch wheels, you'll see what I am talking bout....

Its possible, there is a guy floating around on MF who has done it. 22" rims is getting to be a bit much though. Look up member 555* He has 22's on the back.

Good luck

It is possible. You just need very low prfofile tires. We're running 25 series tires on the back of our show car and 30 up front. It is on a coilover setup though. It can look good if properly done.

Im all about 20s and run em on my stang but I, too, believe there is a limit and I just think 22s are a bit much for our stangs, UNLESS, you are just strictly going to show the car and not drive it much at all.

Not saying it wouldnt look different and a little on the kick-a** side but I just wouldnt do it. [sm=insomnia.gif]

Big rims make your car look like a ghetto rap star blingmobile.
22" rims do not belong on Mustangs and anyone who does that to their car should give up their membership in the Mustang owners club.....

I think that's a bit harsh... I think that's a stereotypical opinion and I think big rims attract attention and show off luxury. And yes I work alot, so to and from work and occasionally to and from our main "strip" is all I plan to do as far as driving.If I wanted opinions on whether or not I should actually get the rims I would have asked, I was just wondering if it were possible though people who gave their opinions in a non offensive sense I appreciate it.

Mustang lovers all have differences in preferences, no need to get nasty about someone who doesn't agree with you

But thnx to everyone else who answered/gave input.
