keep 24s or look for 22s?

[josueh95]

so my tires are getting pretty worn down so now i have to start looking for new tires but i was thinking about maybe getting some 22s gm wheels i was thinking the cadilac 22s i saw a tahoe the other day with them and i loved the look..what do you guys think? maybe even plastidip them to see how it looks i could also buy a set on craigslist and sell my rims to get some money back..or shud i just keep these and buy new tires? i also love the tbss 22s but i just cant afford to buy new set of rims nd wheels but the escalade wheels got my attention any recomendations?

also planning to drop it in the future so it wud close the gap alittle better

The boss rims are a perfect fit with with the Black and Tan theme. You'd have to make a few subtle changes with the escalade rims. On the other hand the 22"s are one of my favorite wheel sets. Just my opinion.

there are 24 Esky reps out there.

Tony can get you the 24" Esky replicas I think. I know he has them on his escalade.

referenced pic is spot on.....that is the way you should head IMO. 20's fit the NBS the best but 22's with a drop on a NBS would be the way to go. I say dump the 4's and grab a set of those and leave them chrome. I see Esky 22's on CL for 1000-1200....

24" reps look silly

You look silly

Reps don't even come close to what you have now.

i dnt want to go for a new set which is why im looking at the 22s escalade but i do like the look of my current ones but also the 22s..i just dont know if chrome would look good with my tahoes colors of black nd tan..id like to see some of the escalade 22s plastidipped ahhh decisions...

if i do get the 22s id have to do a good drop on it like the pic i posted what drop do you guys think that is?

 

[matt14]

I actually was looking at dumping my 22's for 24's in the 330's. Just know one on craigslist was getting back to me about them. Drop it with the 4's first and see how you like it.

 

[josueh95]

yeaa at the same time im thinking about plastidipping them again since last time i did them the next day we had a snow storm and it peeled a bit probabbly because it wasnt fully cured yet but i did like the look on it then with some new tires and a 2/3 drop

I'm undecided on this also. I have my Esky 22s on for winter wheels and I have my 24s but haven't decided on when I'm going to put them on or sell them. I will be doing a drop soon and Tony said I would need new tires for the 24s to make them thinner because of the rubbing. I say get the Esky rims and do the drop and get some money for your 24s.

I love the esky 22s but not sure if they'd go as good with the HD front. They don't match the tough look of the front end if that makes sense.

yess! this is my concern also since the 22s will probably also be not as wide i feel that the 24s have a tougher look to them with the deep lip and that the esky 22s might not flow with the hd front end but i wish i could try a set on and make a decision like that

How wide are your 24's?

Edit: Never mind I just heard about Google. Boss 24" 10" width, Esky 9" width.

 

[Pachanga02]

Np. I'll get some later when I get home.

 

[josueh95]

yeaa 24x10 nd my tires are 305/35/24 how does the plastipid whhels compare to with the machined lip?

[Pachanga02]

Pm me your number I could send you them through text.

24" reps look badass. and forget the 22's. i don't think they'll work with the look you have. plastidip the boss's again more of a motorsport look to it
