I am a little suprised that there was not even one complaint. The decision between getting 20s or 22s is killing me. I am just affraid I would get 22s and regret it because the roads where i live are full of pot holes. How cautious does everyone drive to avoid damaging their wheels?

I have 20"'s and would never consider 22's cause I want to maintain maximum Performance, Ride Quality, and don't like to worry about road imprefections/damage. Your priorities will likely be different.
Below is a list of priorities you might want to consider, and give a rating, say from 1-10, with 10 being most important.

Performance
Bigger/heavier rims will reduce quickness

Ride quality
Bigger rims will have a rougher ride

Driving compromise
Pot holes

Suspension wear
Heavier rims overwork brakes/shocks etc

Cost
22's may or may/not cost more than 20's

Bling Factor
Do you like the looks of 22's better than 20's?

I have the Forge-Tec FT15 22's on my Limited... I think the look is great and they are forged so they are very strong and are not nearly as heavy as the cast wheels. You will have to be concerned with potholes with a 35 series tire and they will ride considerably harder than the 65 series stock tires but the ride on most surfaces is fine. But man the look of the 22's... nothing like it. I guess there is a bit more practicality to the 20's and if you like the look then get them. If you are like most who really want the 22's then get them and just deal with the care you will have to take to enjoy them.
Would you rather your wife or girlfriend strut around for your enjoyment in spike heels or jogging shoes. Me... I'd opt for the heels and just tell her to watch how she walks....

Not to hijack, but you got pics? I have the FT15's in 20"s. Did you weigh the tire/rim combo? My 20's weighed 57lbs.
