From my past research.... 22's barely fit as is, so I would think that you would have to stay with the stock width.

If your turning radius means anything to you, I'd stick with a 8.5

8.5 no bigger on the front if you go bigger you wont turn at all and you will have a ss that can only do straght lines

just curious what rims come in the size 22x8???

im pretty sure if you offset them right and fanagal the wheel wells you could run 9 or 9.5 no problem.

at the stock offset the highest you could go is 8.5.

this is more of a question to be asked to the guy your buying the rims off of.
