Need help with 2000 Expedition!!!

[DrunkenWizard 10+ year member]

I need to get some wheels on my ride. I've got 16" rims with huge tires right now and it's costing me $300 every time I need a new tire. What do you guys think would be best. I'm thinking 22's would be good. Can't really afford 24's. Just want your opinions. What style, color, ect. Also where is a good place to buy them?? Online or actual store. Thanks in advance. Oh yeah, the vehicle is white and it's lifted. It used to be a ranger vehicle.

Getting 22"s will most definitely NOT solve you tire cost issues. You'll have to spend MORE on each tire, simply due to the type of sidewall construction those tires need.

Like the previous post stated, getting bigger tires will not solve your issues. I have 22'' kmc jacks n five on my 01 durango and I work an hour away from my home. I caught a flat tire and had to get a flatbed to drive it an hour to cleveland, then I had to custom order my 22'' tire and that cost me 300 plus 67 to get it put on. I love my rims though they are just a hassle to keep up with sometimes. Im a perfectionist so Im always waxing and checking for spots. IMO I would go to a local shop rather than an online site just incase. Pictures dont really do justice you need to see the rim in person rather than online. Everyones preference is different but I love chrome rims in a 5 bar style. My rims with tires and mounting and balancing cost me 2500. Hopefully you find what you like and when you do send some pics.

You can get a set of tires for 600 without even looking hard for stock 17s. I imagine 16s would be cheaper.

22's look tiny on expeditions
