Now if only there were some tires...
It's really great to see these guys figured out that the 300C exists, and that there are some wheels for it (or, I guess, there will be some wheels for it in a month or two).
Now if only there were some tires to put on them. I've been looking for a 20 that's a nice width and close to the same outside diameter for a while and haven't found much. TireRack lists 245/40R20 as the size for the 300C, but those are almost an inch smaller OD than OEM. I've seen those on a 300C, and they do not look good (the only thing worse than too much sidewall is too much wheel well, IMO).
I'd really love to see some 245/45R20 or 265/40R20 like on the concept 300C, but I'm not sure if the tire guys are going to respond as fast as the wheel guys.
The only size that seems to be out there now in 20 are 275/40R20 (almost the exact OD for the 300C). But I'm not sure those are going to work on an 8.5" rim.
Anyway, 22's aren't gonna work for me. Looking forward to seeing what people do for 20's. I think I'll wait until I see a tire/wheel combo that somebody has and likes, and that looks good. I'm kind of a chicken that way.
