22.5" rims, dominator adaptors, Vegas people, i'm in town

Well, I'm here in Vegas, and will be here a few more days, but I couldn't think of any members I know off the top of my head, so anyone over here wanna go drinkin', pm me
I'm not in my truck though, I'm in some **** boxtruck. Anyhow, the point of this thread was asking if anyone is running 22.5" semirims/tires and www.chromewheel.com adaptors? On the way back to Texas, I'm gonna stop in Houston to go to their store and pick up at least the adaptors. Also go and give MDW some hell

Anyhow, someone in Vegas wants to hook up and raise some hell, gimme a pm. 2 days ago I went out on the strip and and my stomach wasn't too happy with me the next day. It mentioned something about 30-some apple-schnapps/vodka shots from Fat Tuesday in 2 hours and a few mixed drinks... but I'm willing to do it again

Wow-- I can't adequately express how ridiculous those 22.5s look! Not mention the unsprung weight, brutal ride quality, damage to hubs/bearings, etc.

Think if them as a rolling declaration of your poor judgment

It sucks. Bernie @ Chromewheel is a great guy and was very helpful and honest about the set up. For my application it was a poor choice. I went with a Kore Engineering suspension. The truck just cant pull well with the diameter of the tires and I am not about to regear the truck for cosmetic purposes. If you use your truck for stylin around town then it is a good thing, but for actual working I think it was a waste of $5k!

Truck looks great with the 22.5s. I was thinking of maybe 19.5s anyone know if the ride quality is better than 16s.
