Default 22 Inch Chrome Rims

Got a friend who is going to give me a steal of a deal on some 22 inch chrome rims and tires.. just wondering if this would even fit on my 05 c6?

I have seen one on this forum with 22's....looks bad though. They are way too big for a C6.

Would probably fit, but would probably look stupid also. But if the deal is that good, buy them and sell for profit on eBay or Craigslist.

they are 22 inch BOSS chrome rims with tires that have about 70% tred remaining. he had them on a BMW 745 for about 2 months then sold the car. he just wants them out of his garage as he cant park his new car in there with them sitting there and told me i can take them for 650$ which is a awesome deal

I say buy 'em and peddle 'em over on the "Platinum Rollas" website.....(whatever site that may be) There are plenty of guys who pimp their ride with 22" dubs. I would be hard pressed if I ever seen a Corvette with 22s. But there will come a time.....

It would be good to be able to simulate that with a pic of your car and photoshop to see what it would look like before the purchase. Sounds kind of big to me; you know, like one of those Escalades with the huge chromes.

If theyre for a 745i, I doubt they will fit a c6. Buy them for another car if you have something similar to the bmw and really want them. Otherwise its a waste of money.

Also putting 22 inch rims on a c6 corvette will look ridiculous - like someone wearing clown shoes or like when a child tries to draw a car and everything looks out of proportion...

Do they come with a crown-vic painted to look like a package of skittles?
