This is just another rice trend. The different wheels in front and back seemed to originate from japanese drifters, who would swap out tires for street and track driving, opting to put a different compound/less worn out tire in the back. Oftentimes, the wheels they chose would be different and hence different spokes in front and back. As is tradition, posers who wished they were drifters soon started intentionally putting different wheels in front and back, and it became the new fad.

on that car... if the rear rims were on the front and the front were on the back it would look better...


it would be even better if her top end was on my low end and my low end was at her top end... haha

That's a very nice Z.

I like it.

Even if it is a poser, he did a really good job.
