Gonna buy some rims. Opinions please...
#1
So I decided that come March/April I'm going to pick up some rims for my new Explorer. I've found quite a few that I would love to get. My only question is should I get 20's Or 22's? I like the look of a lot of rim on a little rubber. However I don't want it to be so little rubber that it looks goofy.
I guess a set of 20's or 22's could look awesome depending on the size tire you get and style of it etc... I've never bought a pair of aftermarket rims though so I am kind of in the dark on the subject.
I do however want them to be chrome. I've never had chrome rims and I am quite a fan of the look! I'm willing to spend around $2000.00 U.S.

I went to Tirerack.com and checked out '02 Explorers, I forget which year yours is.
They only had five 20" rims for it, none larger.
*edit* Couldn't save them images from Tirerack, it just shows the stock ones when saving. Smart guys...*edit*
Sorry, couldn't save and post that second pic [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img] ...check out Tirerack.

20's are probably as big as I would go I think. Mine is a 2002.
EDIT: I see that they only have 5 as you mentioned. But, that doesn't necessarily mean I couldn't go bigger does it? If you check out Sounddomain there are tons of people running 22's on their Explorer's.
