I don't wanna say anything negative about your car, but I think until we get the "after" pics of your car, I won't be comfortable making that statement.

No hate brotha

Stretched Tires are "what's weak this week." Make sure you are rocking some twizzler stick curb feelers so you don't rash up that action. It'd suck when the fad fades to not be able to sell ill fitting wheels due to lip damage.

And for what it's worth, someone needs to dawn some "wide whites" whitewall tires. It's the next big thing since performance seems to be out.

prolly won't be any after pics...

I'm buried under projects from other cars, house rebuild, and helping buddies get their cars on the road....

But, a houseman body kit, 16x11's real racing wheels, rust free shell, 98 JDM B20B, GSR trany, 245/45 es100, full suspension, interior goodies, and options for a ton of other parts and wheels.....what pops out of the garage might be disturbing for everyone...if I get around to doing it...

right now I have a pinched nerve, and now swelling in one leg...I'm a little worried.

so my 16x11's with 245/45/16's es100's are retargly?!??!?!

They don't quite look right.

If your swollen leg is COLD (does not have to be painful) compared to the other one GET YOUR ASS TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM NOWWW!!!! This is not a joke.........that is a classic sign of a DVT blockage which can KILL YOU when it breaks-up and enters your lung's arteries!!!! We can argue about your car after you get checked-out at the ER..........

I SAY STOP BEING NARROW MINDED. OTHER PPL HAVE OTHER TASTE. THATS WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT.


BTW WITH THE WIDEBODY, LOOKS TIGHT TO ME

[DEIVIONCRX]

If youve got a 11" wheel theres no reason not to put a 275 or larger tire on it.

[ChrisF-dude]

Who is being narrow minded? He posted a picture wanting a response. It's his preference, but since it was posted to illicit a reponse, I gave my opinion. The wide body looks good. However, my opinion is the bead being so far over and stertching the side wall makes it unsafe, and looks goofy. I like wide or deep dish wheels, but with wide low pro tires. I am not slamming his car, but I still don't think it looks right.My $.02 is all.

[CarolinaCRX]

Right now I don't care about how the wheels or tires look.
I just hope he listened to my post and PM about getting checked-out in case of a DVT. Just so you folks will know and because it can save you or a loved one's life.............pinched nerves do NOT cause a limb to swell. Trauma, inflammation (infection), compartment syndrome, blocked vascular system or lymph system are what cause swelling of a limb. If a limb (arm or leg) ever gets swollen and feels cold GO TO THE ER because it could be a vascular blockage which may break-up and close-off blood supply to the lungs (pulmonary embolism). We cannot save you from a "PE" unless it is a mild case, and even then the patient feels like they are drowning even on high flow O2. What I am trying to say is get help or have something checked before it becomes too late.

[C8V6C]

Yeah bro, we aren't being narrow minded, we are just wondering why everyone thinks this is the best thing since sliced bread.

Of course there are a million things I could find "wrong" or at least things that I would do different on everyones ride and they could find things about mine.

I can respect it to a point, but this is one of those things that I will not be warming up to. Just was concerned to see if I was the only one since every thread on HT & NWP seems to be filled with wheels like these lol

[Lymitliss]

That's disgusting. What's the point of having the wheel stick out of the tire that much in the first pics?
