When are wheels too big? 22's on a Z...

When are wheels too big? I found these pics on my350z... thought you might like to take a peak... 22's might be a bit too much of a good thing...

Actually, they don't look too bad JB. But yeah, the style is a little off.

^^ +1. A little too bling for me, but I like the way that the wheels fill up the wheel wells.

i dont think it looks that bad, yes the choice in style of wheels is all off, but with the right body kit i dont think it would look that bad.

22" on anything but 6 and 7-series and the like is an abomination. If the world was mine, people would need a license to mod.

Any car looks disproportional above 20" even at the Bentley/BMW level. Although the upsizing on all car rims over the past decade has led to this debacle in the first place. Even an Avalon can be optioned with 18" rims. If you want to stand out, where else can you go?
