though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

Do not Ghettofy an Imppy. Do it to any car but a rare limited production musclecar.

The question is why would anybody want to put big guady rims on a performance oriented car? Maybe if you are going to a rim that is slightly taller and wider to get more of a contact patch and traction but after 17 inches you start getting to a point where the rims are heavy and the tires have sidewalls so short that they don't allow the tires to flex and grip properly. Not to mention it looks like ass.

So does that mean I should take the 22's off of my T/A now?

once again ill state, i do not plan on this. it was just a question out of curiosity, ive seen a few impalas on huge rims and was wondering if the wheel well was big enough...or did they have to cut it.
