I'd never considered 22's until I had a set on my new AB. They look the part and the ride is very good. They have new Scorpion Verde's and I can't fault them.

Paint the 20” Weston’s black and put some off-road tyres on them. Perfect for a bit of quarry fun |

The thought had crossed my mind when I had the Westie but won't be doing that with my new one (at least not yet!!)

I’ve seen L322 wheels on an L405 - I don’t know the details though

To me 22" do not look "bling", they look silly with not enough side-wall!

Zebedee, what size tyres did you end up going with on your 21’s? |

Mine came with 21s. Even putting 20s on with half an inch more sidewall made a massive difference to the handling and ride quality. Much better. Idk why people ride 22s because they look bling. You can’t see them while you’re driving and the car wasn’t engineered that way. You’re just adding massive unsprung weight (much more important dynamically than sprung weight) and you feel all the surface imperfections |

I had 22"s on my L322 (L405 wheels) which looked ever so slightly oversized and a bit "much" after I had had it a while, the car drove much nicer on the stock 20"s I replaced it with.

I got my L405 with 22" Turbines on (spec sheet says it was originally fitted with 20" Stormers in silver). Lovely on motorways and smooth roads but I found the ride harsh otherwise which is most of the time - I don't do a lot of motorway miles.
