I could never understand 20" wheels, chrome no less. Why do people do this? Not only does it look bad but it feels bad. I wish I can go back to lighter and way more comfortable 15" wheels but with the brakes I have I'm stuck with 17" wheels. I dont' realize how smooth 15" wheels are until I have to drive my pickup truck and you don't have to feel every pebble in the road.

I've actually found something worse around me but I'm afraid if I post it up, the guy will do something to my car if for some reason he reads this post.

The guy bought some flames at Pepboys and put them all around the car and than put some chrome 19's like the picture above.

I just don't understand why people would do something like this and make the car look so bad.

....Unfortunately, I don't think they will be comfortable to "change"...it's in their nature....plus, if you look at the "expression" of this person's car...this person is..too far...too deep......there's no turning back--there's nothing we can do.
