Met a guy the other day that had 22's on his 06 and he hated them.He said with the thin tires the rims were getting bent everytime he drove it and was going back to 20's.
And please don't put those ugly wheels on a Stang!

seriously.
I went to Tirerack.com and did a little searching and came up with this:

I think the 22's may be too tall and they might rub when you turn, but I don't know anything about that kind of stuff. My cousin put 23" wheels on his Chevy Blazer this weekend and he actually had to grind the fenders down, and they still rub horribly. He can't even turn a corner at full turn anymore.
I think the width (8.5) will be okay all around and will fit fine, but you may run into some rubbing and grinding problems in the future with the height (22) of that wheel.
Good luck to you either way!

so they will fit a 22 inch rim, no matter what width the rims are?
no. if the rim was a lot wider, a 245 width tire would not fit right. but 245 on an 8''' rim looks just right, so a 245 on an 8.5'' rim would make the sidewall lean in some, but not all 245's are the same width, so it does depend on the brand as well for actual tire width.
Not that noticable... i have 245's on my front 9in wide rims and they lean in a little, but ive never had anyone say they look strange, probably because they still have a slight outward budlge. but they would be better off with a 275.. on an 8.5inch tire i think 245 will look fine.

I could see that comment being sent off course by some of the people that don't read all the way through the thread. I'm just tired of the bi***fights, probably because I've been a part of the majority of them. But still, it's enough.
