can I tuck 22s on my cutty?

[megaladon6]

there is no such thing as a yes or no "can i do this" question on a car. it can be done with mods. and don't expect people to point out the negatives when it comes to safety and reliability. plus we have our opinions and are going to share them.
BTW having stock brakes on a huge amount of rotating mass is a lot more dangerous than having the same brakes on their designed rotating mass at high speed. (it is stupid either way, but one is worse) at high speed you will have quite a bit of time to slow down before the brakes overheat. with a high rotating mass it just can't grab hard enough to accomplish anything. if the mass is 2x the distance from center, that's 2x the torque.
regardless, judging by his screen name, he wants looks and not performance (that is NOT an insult in any way) so yes you can fit those rims but it'll be expensive and cause braking problems (assuming stock brakes) and suspension and steering articulation/wear issues. be careful and have fun

My point was just say yes or no then move on, trust me all you guys talking about brakes and roation of mass and all that other stuff those guys could give a rats *ss about. When i had my shop i would try to explain that stuff to the owners of vehicles that i lifted and all they cared about was " So them twentfos gonna fit?" (white or black they all talk like that) Half the cars out here have no suspension travel what so ever so i think the brakes are the least of anyones worries. My friend has a shop on the other side of town and not even 12 hours after it left the shop one of his customers roll one over because he took a corner too fast. So basically save your self the time of typing and expain this stuff to someone who might actually take it to use. Like me :lol:

i'd rather waste my time and say it, than not say it and someone gets hurt. besides i can't tell who will listen and who won't.

Remind me to never let someone with dubs get behind me in traffic. :shock:

Seriously, though, how does someone with these giant wheels and no lift kit turn?

 

[megaladon6]

turn, pull forward, reverse turn back up, turn fwd, rev turn rev fwd back fwd back fwd back ok pull out of your driveway.

OK then simple answer is NO, the 20s don't even fit. That said it's a really goofy look. 17/18s are probably the largest usable size.

nope my 20's don't fit i guess

i dont know why people insist on pushing their views on others as if it's the only way to do things. he didnt ask if it would decrease braking, or slow him down or whether others on here would like the look of it or would do it themselves, he asked if they would fit. and yes 22's will fit, IF you do it properly. I guess chevy 350's won't fit into a buick regal then either right, i mean they don't come in the buick, and i don't want to do one in my car. I dont like ford trucks, but somehow they are the best selling truck in the nation, even though I dont like them. come on people, forums were created for people to help others and meet people that share common interests such as cars, not to belittle someone who doesnt want to complete their car the same way you do.

We dont take kindly to your kind around here....


Seriously though, I dont care for the wheels. But just answer honestly whether or not they will work and move on.

 

[85 Cutlass Brougham]

Yeah, but your car is done PROPERLY. It shows how much work is needed to make them work right. I am not intending that as an insult as I think your car shows a dedication to making it work well. Most people, however, do not put that kind of effort into making big wheels work.

Hi there, To anyone that tells you a certain size of wheels wont fit I want you to look at these pictures and/or show them that anything can be done.

They are 24s, Only thing I know about the tire size is that they are 405/xx/24

 

[westsidedonkin]

awesome lots of great feedback thanks everyone for sharing

gonna go lexani dial 22s with the fleur de lis and color insert

and to the guy asking about turning radius etc, i have 0 performance issues with my 20s far as i am concerned.. the turning radius is fine.. there are times when it wont make a u turn that my beemer would have but hey.. pay the cost to be the boss right
