[move][/move][Whats up to everyone. I have a 06 fusion which i really been going back and forth about putting 22's on it. I've seen a couple that looked pretty hot, ut others that i have seen look jacked up and crazy. So here is my question is it worth it to put 22's on it or stick to 20's and drop it. looking forward to you guys and gurls feedback

It's gotta be done right. Chubbzfusion has 22"s and it looks great. There's other member who have done it and it looks horrible. Kevjur has 20"s and it looks great, but then again other member have them and it's horrible. Either way it's not my style so take my opinion w/ a grain of salt.
id say go with 20 and drop it im personally not a fan of having huge wheels
22's are overkill. I say 20's if you really want to go that big.
my vote..20's(still a bit big for my licking unless they are for racing lol)..but drop it and put the 20's on!

just my $.02
I personally would never go bigger than 18. But that is from a performance standpoint.

I would agree with Louie. 20's are plenty big. Be sure to lower it.
I think 20" is pushing it already..

I don't think 22"'s on a Fusion should look good unless you do it just right. I don't think the Fusion's body lends itself to wheels of that size...
Go with 19's and a 245/40 tire. I have that setup and love it.

Anyone got a pic of a fusion w/22's? I saw a set of 22's on an edge yesterday in the showroom and they looked HUGE on that vehicle, can't even imagine what they look like on a fusion.

22s lowered. I say do it, its your car. Do what you want!
I have had 22s and 20s, I dont mind the ride, but my other car is a 66 bug, so anything is better than that.

It rides pretty good. The ride is a little stiffer because there's more rim than before but it's pretty smooth. I did notice that I lost about 2mpg's. I was at 26mpgs in the city and now I'm just under 24. It handles a little better around corners because of the wider tires.
The guy with the black Fusion. What tint do you have on the back door windows? My daughter got hers tinted 35% up front and 5% in back doors. Not legal in my state. We are going to take back. Is it legal in your state and have you been stopped?
It is not my car, one of my customers, but it is 20 all around.
