22's or 20's
hello im new to the group heres a pic of 03 LS, i had a question i have some 20inch choppers on tire size 225/35/20 i wanted to upgrade to some 22's wit a size tire of 245/30/22 and i was wondering if anyone knew if that size tire would fit on a monte carlo and not rub while on there?

Hi Clintin, & Welcome to the Monte Carlo Family.
[:-]WoW,That's a Wild Chicago Ride [:-]
Would love to see more pic's of your ride Have you done any suspension mod's ?
How does it ride with the 20inch Choppers ?
I've seen 22's on a Monte, but I'm not sure what adjustments had
to be made...I will research your question.
Do you drive your Monte in the Snow ?
Look forward to your future posts + more pic's : )
What type of sound system do you have ?
Any mod's to the engine ? etc. ?

GO 22'S. THEY WON'T TAKE AWAY FROM THE CAR. THEY'LL LOOK BETTER THAN FACTORY AND THEY WILL FILL THE WHEEL WELL UP. GUARANTEED YOU WILL LIKE THE 22'S BETTER
YOU DON'T WANT TO GET STUNTED ON WHEN SOMEONE IN A MONTE PULLS UP IN A MONTE LIKE YOURS ON BIGGER RIMS, THAT IS NOT A GOOD FEELING.
BUT SERIOUSLY THE 22'S ARE BETTER. MAYBE 20'S 4 OR 5 YEARS AGO

You need to modify the suspention as was posted above and the handling will come back.
The problem is the 22's just weigh too damn much. It is harder for the engine to rotate the tires and therefore are always slower than a similar car with stock rims or smaller rims.
