The roads in Cali?? HAHAHAHAHA. Its embarrassing the roads in Cali. Even on Wilshire Blvd, in the middle of BH, rim KILLERS everywhere.

The wheels are Monarchs, they look big as hell in the pics but dont look too bad in person. I wish they were black but they cant all be winners!

Not as nice as the HRE's but a pretty decent temp wheel. Look like 22's though.

DUBS were all the rage in the 1800's. They called them "Wagon Wheels" back then.

But yes. The car looks like crud (IMHO) with those wagon wheels under it.

Them guys are cool. I came in and they had a dude jump on it and swap out the wheels. Literally 10 minutes later I was running a Camaro on Robertson. You gotta come down my way sometime and do the Lake show!
