largest wheels and tires

Is anyone running 22" wheels on their lightning? What size tires? Any pictures?

What's the largest tire I can put on a 20" wheel?

In the info section there is even a size comparison calculator.

I dunno what size tires it had but I have personally seen 23x10 OZ Vela's on a Lightning, and they looked great....theres plenty of L's w/ 22's.

I know it's your truck and all but please, DO NOT RUN ANYTHING BIGGER THAN 20s ON YOUR TRUCK!!!!!!!! Myself and many others will agree that it looks ghetto. The only rim over 20s on a Lightning I have seen that look good are the OZ Velas that Blown 5pnt4 where talking about. The rims where black with a polished lip I believe. Big money but sweet looking on a black truck. Either way it's your money.

That's them. Those rims are sooooooooo sweet. Any chrome rim over 20s on a Lightning look ghetto in my opinion. Where can I get a price for those things??

The OZs are black. They look smaller than say a 23" chrome rim.
