22" Rims on a 5.5 Gen?

Does anyone know if 22" Rims fit on a 2k2 or a 2k3? I was just wondering because a friend of mine swears up and down that it does. It must look ridiculious but was wondering if anyone actually has pictures of this if it does? Thanks

Nick

I believe this was discussed before and I think I saw a picture of a Max on 22s. It's probably not impossible but I don't really know how drivable it will be.

No they don't fit but ppl have made them fit by cutting up their fenders and bumpers. Its not a pretty sight. You don't want to see it and if you do you will say

If I saw a maxima on 22's, I'd walk up to him and simply laugh in his face. I wouldn't even have to say anything

Especially since 15's come stock on most gen maximas. Quick, I gotta replace mine with some ricey 19's because my car isn't a racecar

Anything over 18's = total overkill, pothole b*tch.

Seriously guys, I don't know why you'd even want to change wheels. The stock 2k2 17's are the best looking wheels for 3rd, 4th and 5th gens period. It's not like you're starting out with 4th gen GXE Honeycombs.

I think that the stock 17s look a tad too small for the size and shape of the car. 18's look great, and 19's give it the hotness look. We should look out for potholes anyway!
