    Ride is a bit harsher and you can feel the bumps and humps, but really not bad at all.

    I think they look great..

    One question though.........how do you keep your car so clean......especially since it's black? Unbelievable.

    We have a set of Genuine 22 machined silver with Black Stormers we love the look of these on our Buckingham Blue 2008 L320. We have the 19's going on now for our trip to Darwin with our Camper.

    Yeah, I intend to keep the 20's for towing the van and the 22's for looks. Not that I don't like the 20's..........but I really like the 22's.
    Enjoy the Darwin trip mate.
    Photos of your car would be great.

    Fitted the 22's today. Love them but as I said I loved the 20's as well. One thing I've noticed is the Pirellis feel lighter than the Coopers and if it's possible for the car to turn in and handle better, it seems to do that but I guess the Coopers are a compromise tyre and the Pirellis are bitumen only.

    No rubbing mate but in my earlier days I would say if the tyres weren't rubbing I needed to fit wider ones and lower the car a bit more.

    These Coopers might get close to rubbing I think. I have them on my 20" rims but they are the same size as originals.
    These are 305 X 40's. as opposed to 285 X 35's.

    Cooper 3054022 114S Zeon LTZ | Tyres | Tempe Tyres

    According to Ron's calculator they may be out of the question.
    Diameter 29.9 v. 31.6
    Width 11.2 v. 12
    Sidewall 3.9 v. 4.8
    Circumference 93.7 v. 99.2
