I honestly was very disappointed with the ride quality with the 20"/RFTs in the 6. I guess that's the nature of the beast. Every once in a while when I hit an uneven surface I have a minor spinal realignment!

Not feeling the wheels -- car looks great, but the wheels are a bit much. However, as long as you are happy, who cares what we think.

I have 19s on the Gran Coupe (sport package but with 19s for some reason). My convertible has 20s. I've had bad luck with 20s both on this convertible and my 2010 5501 Gran Turismo. I've lost 2 wheels/tires to pot holes in each of those cars. The roads in west L.A. are brutal these days.

So I stick with stock and pray.

Do your 22s rub at all?

take those off immediately. They make the car seem cheap. They're nice rims, just not on a car.

The title is a little misleading, I thought it said killin it with the wheels, I realized after seeing the wheels that they are in fact killing the car! J/K, if the OP loves them then that's all that matters, sort of.

21's in HRE's, Advan1's , Brixton or BC Forged would set this off. I like the wheels but they belong on a 300 or Dodge Charger or something.
