I need more pics to form a conclusion, but here's a suggestion - now that you've embraced chrome and silver by purchasing silver wheels, please peel the tint off the chrome on your door handles and side markers, and the rear reflectors. It will give it a more cohesive look.

22" is too large, frankly, but the style of the wheel itself is ok.

And what upstate650 said if the opinions are coming out

Thanks for the comments & critique.
It is always very interesting to me to hear some unbiased opinions.
I suppose it’s very easy to be blinkered with your own car.

I’ll pop some more pictures up later.

Ta,
Dodge.

Same here on the size, I think 22s are too large, but the design is nice. Does look great.

I think 22" wheels LOOK good on a car this big (although not with rubber band tires), but I'm pretty sure I would never want to DRIVE my car with 22's on it.

Thanks all.

Just wondering, why are they too big?

its strictly arbitrary and personal opinion, but you gotta draw the line somewhere. personally, 20" is too small, 22" is too large, and 21" is just right

I bought them ununsed, from a friend.
No marking on them or anything but I’ll try and find out for you.

Cheers.

Why do you think they are way too big? & What do you mean about the M badge? (Drives me nuts when people stick M badges on their cars).

22's are just too big imo, how could you even enjoy the driving experience with such huge wheels?

And I've never seen a GC with an M badge under the side grills.

Ahh i see. Fair play.. although I don’t fully understand what is meant by not being able to enjoy the driving experience, Have you had a bad experience with 22s?

M was fitted at factory by BMW.
Not sure why but I have seen it on quite a few GCs.

Bringing up an old thread here, but what tyre sizes you running? I'm thinking about up sizing to 21's. I know they will fit as running a larger tyre size on my 20's.

Looks great, but damn, seeing yours in white with the black trim really makes me wish I held out for white instead of settling for black sapphire metallic.
