Default 22inch wheels

Ok i plan on either buy 20 inch black wheels or 22's....i hear 22's look better with rockstars....so i want to see any pics for 22's even if they are not rockstars....but i can't seem to find any 22's on 4x2 vehicles....i want to see how much tread will be left so it wont look stupid without any tire...also my truck is a 2008 dodge ram 5.7 black...this is going to be a street truck so im not going to try and force giant tires in the wheel well for more tread..

I have a set of 22's on my truck. I am running a 305/45R22 tire and still have plenty of tire on the sidewalls and it rides great not rough and there is no road/tire noise

My 22s fit with a stock height because they were the same O.D. as my stock 20s.

My stock 20s were like 285?/60/20 whereas my 22s were 305/40/22

305/45r22 will definitely fit on a stock truck, they fit perfect with a 2/4 drop as well
You may be able to even squeeze a 285/50r22 with the correct offset wheel on a stock truck.
