I know what you're trying to do because I have done it.I have 24 inch wheels on my cutlass and I can light them up just by tapping on the gas.

Other posts on here say the max you can go is a .500 lift with the stock springs.I have a cam in mines but it isn't that high but is noticeable.

With a good tune up you should be able to spin those 22's with no problem.Oldsmobiles have good low end torque.I have the videos to prove it.
