Can't think of any better way to make a harsh riding 4x4 even more so. You trying to shake someones bra off!

I didnt know all that much about 22's until after i bought them and then googled them, and there they were . The horror stories!

Theres a late model Range Rover with black 22"s on up here. Looks OK and he reckons he gets 30,000km plus from them. Not for me though sorry.

Not sure if you have bought any but I have spotted a couple of cheap sets of 22" wheels specifically for Range Rovers on here. Worth checking out if thats the sickness you are inflicted with.

My 4 axle log trailer, built by Kraft is on 22", ride,s and tow,s well.
Maybe Trogedon has 22"s on one of his bicycles. Where they belong.

I roll 29's on my new MTB, & I mean ROLL - over bloody every root & washout, amazing compared to the standard 26"
Also, 22" wheels on a rangie isnt a big ask, the car can handle em easy - but the type of roads - well. Consider in LA for example the roads are nearly perfect - no signs of potholes or goat tracks like SH1 for instance. Would be careful on brand too - some of those cheap spun alloy wheels are bloody easy to smash

No, but it'd be a hell of a lot more reliable.

Ahahahaha! I think i may have pmled But once youve owned one its hard to own anything else!

Thanks for that info, will get more powerful headlights too i think as mine would never spot potholes at night! And on the long and tortuous journey from hamilton to auckland with them fitted . O dear

Only because I think any bigger looks stupid and you'd look like a poser.

Bigger also cause more problems, as rim or tyre damage is very easy to get , and top gear proved their car was slower on 22s than 20s
