I went to the dub show in chicago this past weekend and came across something that blew my mind.Now i''m a fan of the big rims on cars look but I didn''t think it was possible a dodge charger on 28''s with no lift and thin tires.I spoke with the owner of the car and he told me yes he drives it and can make full turns and says he can do donuts in it but he all said he doesn''t drive it as much because of the city streets.But I think it looks good make me wonder if I could get them on my MC and i''m already lifted.

Those really dont look good at all. Its just way over the top. It looks like he cut the wheel wells bigger, but Im not sure. I like the paint on it though, looks good on that car.

Your car & all. So you can do with it as you please.

But this is getting rediculous.

I had to check a picture of a factory Charger, but yeah, the front wheel well is cut a little bit.

I don''t like the 20"+ rims on cars. Just my preference though.
I prefer the wheels to be somewhat proportional to the car.

With the condition of the roads around here, and in/around Detroit area, those 28''s would be the best dam rims that got bent to rat crap after two days.

RJ, what is getting ridiculous? Matt''s comment about it being over the top? Or the rim sizes? If it was Matt''s comment he didn''t attack solow for liking/wanting the rims, he just said his opinion which everyone is entitled to in a forum. I''m sure it wasn''t meant to start an argument, which it didn''t.

Relax man. I think he was talking about the rim sizes getting too big.

RJ also mentions in the sentence before that, "Your car & all. So you can do with it as you please."

I don''''t think RJ was attacking Matt personally.

On a different note...

I think it''''s only a matter of time before someone finds a way to mount wagon wheels from a horse & carriage, onto their car.

Okay...that''s what I thought. That''s the bad thing about forums, I wasn''t saying that in an escalated, angry way, I was just curious because of the last "rims" discussion. I didn''t think RJ would do that, he doesn''t seem like that kind of person. I do agree though...28" rims....I believe that''s the same size that semi trucks have on them isn''t it?

Just commenting on the size of rims used.

I''ve posted before, why not just use tractor wheels on your car? And I''m used Wagon wheels as a sugestion before, too.
