Default 22" Rims Last Friday

What do you guys think? I wanted to keep it conservative...

Yeah that's my dad's A4 3.0. We also share a 1500 for our business and an '03 SRT-4 silver but he drove it that day.
And then I have a Limited '96 Jeep Grand Cherokee.


Here's more pics by the way slza805.

Thanks Amanda for the compliment. I was actually worried that it might look too gaudy...
I was originally opting for 22" painted silver or regular alloy. There was just something about that 20" stock rims of the X5 4.8is that kept on making my head turn. But I was unsure and everyone was like, "Get chromes" so there...

Very nice... my wife was wondering if we should get the 2K5 Dangos next summer and go with some 20's but sh?t 22's look even better.

Keep me posted if there are any more mods to your Durango. Right now Im in the mode for the Full Size Ram 1500 Hemi 4x4 with maybe 33-35's tires. Just looking around for that truck unless I see a steal on a new Durango like yours.

Badstratrt> Yeah its still not conservative, but compared to others this was one of the more simple type ones. But you still gotta "bling" even a little bit right? hehe

I also put in those door step guards. Those chrome ones. They come in all four front and rear doors.

I haven't done any changes in the engine or exhaust yet... still doing some research. I think Durangos are still too new to mess with the engine.

It came with Nitto 404 285/45R22's. I didn't want to go too low.

slza805> One of the general managers in the dodge dealership here insisted that i put 20's because he said low pro's in 22's look funky specially because of the unevenness of the gap in the wheelwell at the rear and front.
The dealership had a couple of durangos with 20"rims that they were trying to push. I didn't like the 20's because they still looked small. So i went with 22's and got the thickest possible tire i can get without looking too thick. Good thing they worked out.
