I have 22" HREs on my 07. It definaltey does compromise the ride quality a bit as you need a lower profile tyre to accomodate the larger wheel. The lack of sidewall means you will feel the bumps more. Also, with a 22" wheel you have a wider wheel and that makes the car tramline more on poor road surfaces. Certainly looks better on 22" but your wife or girlfriend wont be as enthusastic !

Update
I have posted the finished product. 22's with 30 series tires & I installed lowering links by Ghostlinks. Tires had a minor effect on the ride. The lowering had a more dramatic effect but the links are fully adjustable so you can set them wherever you are comfortable.

USA Rims
Purchased the rims from USA Rim in California. You can buy direct or they do sell on EBay as well. These are a knock off of the factory rim for the newer models offered in 20's or 21's. Looks good at a fraction of the cost. I have the factory 20's that I still run during the winter months.....these the rest of the year.

thanks
Thanks for the speedy reply. I actually have a similar site bookedmarked but they didnt have the 22s. Truck looks awesome. I prefer a bit more rubber height so I would use 285/35-22. Gives more sidewall to fill the wheel well.
