Anyone else dislike those cheap looking knock off wheels that are trying to replicate old school wheels? Typically found in tiny 15 inch sizes and skinny in width. Makes the any car look like terrible.

Sorry I did not see them but apparently I'm not the only one that has a strong distaste toward these wheels.

It's not old school.
-cheap looking knock off of a old school wheel
-Skinny
-Bad offsets
-Small Diameter
Another bad trend are those cheap asses with those ugly generic barrels that are 15 inchs in size and low in offset just to say they are low offset. :ugh:

yeah well custom offset stealies are pretty damn light and pretty damn cheap, I would rather see those with good fitment then shitty drag/tenzo/sportmax/xxr whatever, but honestly, if that is all someone can afford and they are happy with them, then I can not dog them for that. And I wont, and bitching about it worthless. And if you don't like these, then stay the fuck outta fresno.

RB30 I understand exactly what ur talking about and I agree with u, however I see no need to make a thread about it, I don't think its gonna make it to page two before it gets locked, but while its open, 15 inch wheels on S-Chassis IMO = dumb and ugly especially if they're fake, if they are real and they fit and the car is fucking dumped, eh i'll walk with u on it but i'm not gonna do it, pretty much anything other than 17s or 18s that fit, I really don't like on S-Chassis' but thats my opinion and i'm sure no one gives a fuck, key reason as to why this thread will be locked shortly haha

OEM steelies that have been widened are some what cool, however aftermarket steelies are heavy as fuck and will forever be awful and dumb

as said a billion times before. its really up to how the owner wants it to look. maybe they dont have the megabucks to buy good rims or maybe they do but prefer cheap rims (rare but hey some people are loaded and still drive around cheap cars).
i personally wouldnt want to rock old school knockoffs. they just dont have the flair if you know what i mean.

Why don't you just go around and put a lock on every wheel you don't like and leave a friendly note on the window that says "Look buddy I don't like your wheels it's so ugly I am forcing an immediate lock down on your ride until these get changed out, I will be patrolling this area a lot and I have 10,000 locks at home and I'm ready to use them."

I rather stick with OEM and save up to something worth while then use some junkyard special to try to fit in "the in crowd."

Why did you buy a 240 if not to be with "the in crowd"?......sorry but your useless ranting does nobody any good. Not everyone has the money nor tastes that you have. A majority of the people on this forum are working on a budget and if the products they buy is all they afford then who are you to judge them?

RB30, this isn't you're personal blog.
Your opinions don't warrant their own Thread, nor are attacks on our members about their cars welcomed.
In closing, pull your head out of your ass before you attempt to make any more Threads.
