22's?

Because of some very "drop" unfriendly places I have to drive, I already drag now and then with my TS body kit. Since lowering is outta the question, can an aggressive set of 22's be tucked under our cars?

Was thinking more like this,

and yes I know it's a widebody. Just looking fill in the gap without losing my clearance. 20's with some cushion sounds like easiest route.

I think Solo is running 21's on the rears. Try to find some pictures of his car (it's athens blue) with his setup. If he can fit 21's on the rears, then you can probably go to 21's all around.
