replacement michelin diamaris tyres will cost me $700 AU each (315/35/20) for the rears and $670 AU each (275/40/20) fronts. those price are from bob jane tmarts. so my american friends, looks like things are cheaper (again) in your country

$1AU = $0.79US

So 50K in the US, roughly $64,000AU

Things could be worse ... a friend of mine in Ireland said that the 4.8is starts at ~130K Euros without any options = 171K US. Adding some 'must have' options pushes the sticker to 145K Euro = 191K US

Oh and to anwswer your question - IMO the 22's are too much bling for a SA(U)V, but to each their own

19's or 20's is as big as I'd go. 22's look (in my daughter's word) "ghetto" on an X.
