As far as I know it can be done, but for show use only. The car willl have problems turning. Here is a pic with a 300 with 23's. Personally, I would pass, unless you want to have an undriveable ride.

You already have 22's. When is big enough...big enough?

Big mistake ! 22's fit within the wheel well perfectly. don't overfill your wheel well
like alot of people do. You see alot of those boxy looking Buicks in the hood with
24's and stuff and the wheel well will only fit an 18. The car sits as high as an
18 wheeler. Some people just don't have a clue, don't be one of em.

"BLINGING OUT OF CONTROL" is the reason why. Sorry about the pic quality had to take it quick with my cell phone.

Dirty South, you gotta be there to understand it. We work at a shop and do this day in and day out, but not make them look like that in the picture, tops we lift is about 2" beyond stock and that for 22s and 23s on the Bubbles, Boxes, Vic, Mercs, etc. Don't bother me, thats how I make my house payment, car payment, etc

There is no logical explination for doing that to your car other than you want to. There is no such thing as "too big" anymore. It is very similar to "too fast".

Does anyone really need a car with 1,001 BHP (Bugatti Veyron) ? No.
Is that an obscene amount of power and speed? Yes.
Is that complete over-kill? Yes indeed.

But you have to admit...it's pretty damn cool.
