I am thinking about buying some 22 x 9.5 Foose Spank Rims within the next few weeks, and wondered what kind of tires would be best?? I was thinking about the Dunlop SP 9000s, 285/30/22. Has anyone had this tire in this series? Would it be too thin (not as wide as stock), or would the ride be worse or better beacues it is not the 295 that I am used to? I understand that the ride will not be as good with this size rim, especially since the overall height of the wheel and tire is almost the same as stock, but is this tire going to make it worse?

Also, any other ideas on rims you like? So far I just like the KMC Boffa, and most of all the Foose Spank 5. The wheels must be @ least 22"!

Bill (HDMLINIUM) Had the 22in Bofas with the 285/30/22, ran 12.0's with them and said it rode pretty good. I was going with the 285/30/22 as well. I have heard PERELLI is making a 295/35 or 40/22 but I have not seen it or talked to my tires guy about it....

 

I did see that Pirelli is making that tire. I saw it on a few different web pages, but when I asked about it at Discount Tire, they did not know what I was talking about. Discount Tire recomended that I spend $400 a piece on the Dunlop's, and I found the Pirellis for $325 a piece.

 

I know the Dunlop SP 2000's work pretty well. I am not sure which way I would go but I am going to try to get info on the Pirellis and compare them...
