I posted 2 pics +22 vs. +12 so you can see the difference,

The +22 isnt as aggressive looking the lip size difference on the +22 vs. +12 is probably around 1.5-2 inches smaller (estimate)... The +12 on the front in my opinion looks a lot better... They have a more concave look as well which i like.

The only thing with +12 is rubbing etc. So you must roll fenders and possibly have to either run more camber or raise the car up or run a slightly skinnier tire... There are way more slight variables with having the +12 that may make your setup not so practical to just throw on and go! I also have a Wilwood brake setup for the front and the rim spokes are like .5 inch from the caliper I was nervous it was going to hit!

Hope that helps.
