Question Auto Show- Fugly rimz spotted!!!

Well, at least it looks like he can rotate his tires. Opinions?

wheels look flush up front and almost flush at the rear... leading to my conclusion that the wheels are staggered to fill those huge rear fenders of our cars therefore i dont think he'll be able to rotate the tires... if you really wanted to be analytical but nonetheless inmo the wheels aren't that bad, maybe a little better offset.

Almost positive they are not staggered. Both rims are exactly same front and rear as well as tire sizes. Thanks for the input though. cheers.

i kinda like it, has that CLK-GTR look to it, like a DTM car. Definitely a departure from the usual volks with 3 inch lip.

Looks like a gladiator cart. :P I really dont understand peoples obssession for ridiculously large diameter wheels. People around here have old school cars that look like the classic low rider style of the mid 90s (cool) but they have em on HUGE 30" wheels. That's not a typo... The rims make the car like 3 ft of the ground. It's the dumbest @$&^ I have ever seen in my life. The moral of the story is, sidewall is sexy. I miss the lowriders with 14inchers that practically scraped the floor.

Looks unique. If it weren't chrome looking, I'd think it was cool. I wouldn't put it on my car, but it's cool nonetheless.
