If you go with 22's you have to go forged if you like speed, otherwise they can get to be way to heavy. Personally, I like forged 20's and short tires.

Dude get the 22's. I had some chrome cast 20" wheels before I got my centerlines. I never weighed them but for a while I had the 20's and 22's in my garage. The centerlines were actually easier to pick up than the 20's. I didn't notice any huge difference when I put the 22's on though, they may have made me just a little bit quicker. The way I look at it is now I've got some awesome looking wheels and I didn't lose anything by going up a size.

And like it was said earlier, you could always keep your stock wheels for the track.

You can't lose with 22's. Don't forget, 2004SSS ran 11.94 on his 22's.

you can still go fast on 22's and also look better than the guy with 17's. They won't slow you down drastically. Go with 22's
