22's on a 3rd gen
i am seriously considering skipping 20's and trying to go for 22's on my 92 max. im seeing maxes of different generations in photo galleries on the net. what are these people doing to get their cars lifted up.performance is not an issue because its not a racing car. its just for my own custom identity. if someone mentioned that the 95-99 struts will let it sit higher, is it true. so far I have seen the nitto 255/30zr22 so the main thing is the lift.

good luck is all i have to say and you will have to jack your car up so high to fit 22s because i dont think your wheel well is big enought from side to side to hold 22s. you will have to do some fender bending and cutting. i had 255/35/20s tires on my dubs, and it wasnt even close to tucking. unless you can get tires that are closer to 235/25/22 then you may have a chance, but they dont make that.. but plan on jacking your car up a good 4-6 inches, i had my back jacked up 2-3 inches. you will never get 255s to tuck on your car unless you roll the finders way out. just go buy some 235or225/35/20s and put them on a 7.5 inch dub and drop it like 2 inches, you will look huge on a 3rd gen.

The reason all those ghettomobiles look lifted with their 24's is because they are, they use truck lift kits or put blocks between the spring and the axle in the rear to lift the car so those monster wheels will fit. If that's really what you want buy a Caprice, you can't do it with a Maxima or any other unibody car.
