why do people put stupid big rims on nice cars. im putting 15 inch american racing outlaws on my 78.but any other 17 year old would put 20s or some gay crap on it.i hate this low profile tire crap on old cars era.does anyone else?

 

i guess to each his own...i love the 20's and bigger...20's are small to me know..17's and 15's are pueny...but i guess its just what your into..i guess it depends one what era you grew up in...i put 24's on a magnum...goergeous!!

 

i grew up in the 90s and i still dont like all that much. but whatever floats your boat.im just livin in the 80s i guess

 

im not really much of one for 20's i kinda thinks 18's are as big as i will go

 

Guess everyone is entilted to an opinion. My personal preference would not be dubs on an older car in most cases, but if it's done right they sometimes look good. T.I. the rap artist is a good example. His video for the song 24's has quite a few really good looking chevelle's and such on twinkies and bigger. My 75 is rollin deep on 15 inch weld racing wheels, but if I could afford a 06 SS monte for a daily driver (instead of my escort wagon ballin on some bling 16's!) it would definetly be rollin 20's!


Edit: These new things they are calling donk's is a whole nother story!

 

What is the true definition of a DUB?

I think larger rims look good on certain vehicles, and then on the other hand, some look really silly and over the top of what looks good.

I have 16's now but would like to see 17" and no bigger than 18" on my Monte. Just my personal preference.


Donk's???? What the heck is a Donk?

 

dub is just a make of rim, and now people are associating it with big a** wheels...dub makes up to a 30" wheel that fits on a hummer only...the h2, look mint!!

 

I agree, I think big rims on a big vehicle looks good, but I have to draw the line on big rims on our cars, I've seen pictures of 25" on a monte and it just looked like crap...

You'll know one when you see it. They are lifting up cars now (big boy lift kits) to fit 26's and bigger under cars. Look at your local newsstand for the mag called "donks". We already have a few of them in the area here. Guy with a 86 monte ss had 20's and it didn't look too bad. Now it's on 26 inch spinners with about 4 feet of ground clearance! I want to take it out wheeling!!!
