Agree they will be OK, but sacrificing decreased ride quality for some perceived cosmetic improvement makes little sense to me.The 22-inch wheels should be OK as long as you pick the correct tire width and aspect ratio so the speedometer reading isn't off. The tire's circumference should be as near as possible to the one on the 20-inch wheel.
LOL Looks like a Hot Wheels car.Might as well go with 26" wheels and muck it up real good.
+1 It never made sense to me, either. To each, their own!... sacrificing decreased ride quality for some perceived cosmetic improvement makes little sense to me.

Not necessarily. Think about this: Acadia's factory wheel options range from 17- to 20-inch. A 235/45R22 would have enough cushion on the road. It would also be close enough to the factory 235/55R20 size's diameter to be nearly error-free on the speedometer (a 0.1 inch difference). Doubtful it would adversely affect handling or suspension integrity. Things may change only if a much wider tire is desired. Then, one would have to consider a change in wheel width, too.At 22", and maintaining the overall tire OD, you're gonna have rubber bands left. ...
It's an opinion thing, what exactly defines a rubber band tire. IMO, a 4.16" sidewall (235/45/22) on the Acadia is a rubber band. Maybe it works on other SUV's (Range Rover?).Not necessarily.

OK. You've heard it all from the peanut gallery. Now it's your turn. 🤣 Watcha gonna do?New here, HELLO......Anyone ever ran 22" wheels on there Acadia 2019 Body Style? I like my Denali 20" wheels, but I want to go to a little larger tire and i think with 22" it would look better. Similar to this pic.
I'm thinking the OP didn't exactly get the opinions he was hoping for and may not return.OK. You've heard it all from the peanut gallery. Now it's your turn. 🤣 Watcha gonna do?
Too bad I was the only positive note in the whole discussion. The XT5 has 20s and I think it rides and handles wonderfully. One wheel size larger likely won't make much of a difference from the 20s on their Acadia as long as they choose tires and inflation pressures reasonably.I'm thinking the OP didn't exactly get the opinions he was hoping for and may not return.
(ice gets thinner day by dayJust one of the many , , , ,
Ice gets thinner? The OP or JT?(ice gets thinner day by day)

If the OP, not much one can do. People come and go.
If JT, unless I misunderstood, he was talking about the OP being one of many who post a question and never return (in response to divotdug saying so).
I am puzzled as well. And, yes, , , just commented that it is one of many one post wonders.(ice gets thinner day by day)

Not to mention the extra strain put on the braking and suspension systems due to the heavier rolling mass of the larger wheels.
