I mean come on. Big rims don't look good on everything. This fad needs to hurry and be done with.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Wow. Thats gay.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

I guess sometimes "bigger" isnt always better :barf:

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Change rims and it looks like you'd have a nice truck. Price is a little steep for me though.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

as to not offend anyone

i agree

it's "ghey"

but not completely, cool interior.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

:haha:

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

But wait... It does have 2 televisions. :aiiet:

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

The wheels alone are worth more than my Chevy and my 2 VW's.

It's probably $15K without the wheels. :haha:

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

big wheels are for big trucks. thats what i think.....

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

He took too much, too much...

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Yeah! Except Hummers. 30" Wheels are just, well, VERY EXPENSIVE!

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

That is terrible!!! Im supprised they dont have the name of a candy bar or soft drink painted on the side of their cars like some of the ones around here do!?!? There are a bunch of cars running around the city I work in (Mckinney Tx.) like Skittles, Snickers and Dr. Pepper. I guess they call them Donks. I call them stupid. Just my 2 pennies worth...

Re: Do they think it looks good.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

I just threw up in my mouth. I would have a romantic candle light dinner with my ex mother-in-law before I was seen driving that.

Re: Do they think it looks good.

Re: Do they think it looks good.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Yo Yo Yo look a my pimp ride straight out of the hood!!!!!!







melt the wheels, then it will be kind of ok!!!!!

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Those are too big and things are way out of proportion, but I like up to 20" wheels on a truck. I like a bigger wheel and a smaller tire and keep the over all diameter the same, just more wheel, less tire. Maybe a little bigger overall, but not much.

I don't think it is a fad, like spinners were. I think that bigger wheels are here to stay. 24" is "overdoing it", but a larger diameter wheel looks better than a 15" wheel and cars come from the factory with larger wheels on them now, so the days of the 15" wheels are over.

Before long 15" wheels will be like the little skinny skateboards that they had back in the 60's... obsolete.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

WRONG!!!! Or,at least that`s "my" opinion,just as we now know yours.We have all these sizes now.One hasn`t replaced the other,like skateboards did.:cool:

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

I looked it and thought with the right wheels it would be nice until I spotted the FREAKING LAMBO DOOR!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Seriously though I wounder what they did to the suspension to get it to sit up like that for the wheels to clear...

I saw a SpongeBob Caprice a couple months ago in Knoxville. My wife and I both looked at each other in that weird way like seeing if each of us saw it. When we realized we had, we both lost it and started laughing.

Hair, I do agree with you that larger wheels are the way things are heading and some vehicles do look good with up to 20" wheels if done right. I don't, however, agree with the comment about 15" wheels becoming obsolete.

IMO, 15" wheels will always be around and will always hold a timeless look. One thing I've noticed from my truck is it still gets as much attention and still gets trophies just like vehicles with larger wheels.

Another thing about 15" wheels is they will look good on ANY older vehicle(pre 1996) in any form. How many times have we seen where someone sticks a set of 20's on a stock or barely lowered vehicle and it looks bad because the proportions aren't right. You pretty much have to build a vehicle around larger wheels. 15" wheels with the right tires will look good on stock, slightly lowered, lowered, and slammed rides.

I know it's all about taste and personal preference. I myself really don't care for anything larger than 18" wheels. If we built all our rides the same way, it would be a boring hobby. Seeing people do different things and people "stepping out of the box" is what keeps things interesting. It's what starts new fads, it's what keeps new ideas and new inventions coming to keep the automotive hobby fun.

I do agree larger wheels are here to stay, but I do think there's enough old-schoolers out there to keep 15" wheels around for a LONG time.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Okay, okay...maybe the word "obosolete" was too much.

I know that 15" wheels may always be around, (like white wall tires, which are cool too), but I think they will, and have, taken a permenent backseat to the larger wheels.

Don't most all of the full-sized trucks made today come from the factory with larger than 15" wheels?... I may be wrong on this. I can't see them backing-up and going back to a smaller wheel again.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

That's what happens when they take your truck on "Pimp My Ride":lol:

Ostrich interior? I'm surprised it doesn't have a Louis Vuitton dash pad.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

I think anything over a 17" wheel is too large and I have done 18's on a 1970 muscle car a few years back and it was ok, looked like something out of a magazine but I wasn't really satisfied with it. I am just glad that everyone wants the big wheel look because it makes the small 15's be much cheaper. I was considering getting a set of 17's for my truck but the 15's are too cheap to pass up now days. Yesterday I just picked up a set of 15x10 Centerline Champ 500 Convo's w/tri-bar spinners for $200 and I bet I can go about anywhere and won't see anyone with the same wheels.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

:haha: Now that`s funny!

The current trend is certainly larger diameters on everything.Even the automakers reflect it in their designs.I`m sure this will be the norm until something else changes and I doubt that will be smaller.Or,I`ll have to eat my words when they go to urethane wheels on pivoting trucks:lol:

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Ditto

..and where would you be able to use TWO TV's in a regular cab truck?

IMO, the huge rims are a result of trying to make up for the owner's defficiencies (SP?) elsewhere, if you know what I mean... an inferiority complex. ( I took a couple of semesters of psycholgy down there at the junior college.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Big rims like this don't look good on anything... Except maybe a Caterpillar front end loader. It's all about proportion!

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

I think the rims alone are almost as big as the WHEELS AND TIRES on the yellow 55-57 4x4! Stu-Pid!

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

ouch i live just a few miles from there I think I am goin to go soo the horid example in person....

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Check out what my dad is rollin', yo! (They have tires on them now.) As far as being "different", how many trucks have you seen with the "dog dish" 80's caps? I am looking for a stock set of 71 poverty caps, but have not found a deal as good as the $20 I spent on this set of NEW caps!

I must be the only guy in the country "- sizing" not "+ sizing" wheels. Call me stupid, (OK,not really), but I have an '06 Cobalt SS (non supercharged) that had factory 17" x 6.5" wheels. When I rolled 30k miles, it was time for new tires (!). Stock size is 205/55-17. I usually deal with Discount Tire, but also checked several other stores. Due to this being an oddball size (17" rim, but NARROW as hell), they all only had three brands, costing from $160- $203 EACH!!! I replaced the stock 17" x 6.5" wheels with 16" x 7" wheels and 225 55/16 Pirellis tires. They are almost exactly the same height. The tire calculator shows that when the speedo reads 65 mph, I am actually only going 64.66 mph (!) I am not trying to second guess GM, but the car handles better with the slightly wider tires and DFINITELY rides better with 1/2" more rubber between me and the road with the 16" wheels. I was able to buy the 16" wheels and tires for almost the same $$ as what the 17 TIRES ALONE would have cost! I put the old 17's in the barn to save for if I ever sell the car.

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

That truck reminded me of this picture...

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

NAHH I JUST FOUND THE STOCK CAPS AND RIMS FOR MY BLAZER. iM GOIN BACK TO STOCK.. ALTHOUGH i WOULD LIKE TO FIND CLEANER CAPS

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

Lots of $$$ in that truck....and I'll bet he lives in an apartment

Re: Do they think it looks good.
 

I agree that 17s are as big as id go but im more of a prostreet man...oh well,at least it might pass someday....or not [god forbid lol]

Re: Do they think it looks good.
