being the mechanic at a tyre shop, im wondering how they mount them up... whether theyre some special 3 piece rim maybe they bolt the rim around the tyre...
or the rim comes with tyre moulded to it...
i dont think they could have made an uglier rim...
surprised theyre not 100 spoke wire rims, but theyd weigh more than the car... lol

From the looks of them they have a fillet weld around the bottom of the spokes

Those tires arnt that thin, lokk at the car in the back ground, the profile is the same.

Everyone is real quick to that this is an gly mod, when their own cars maybe boring stokers or have questionable mods.....

personally its not my thing, but, its like seeing a Monster truck street style..., and i appritiate the work gone into the job.


I wish morte people were less lame, with there "retarted" and "ridiculous" quotes.

About as ridiculous as a Blower or a bulge on a XR6 :

so you've seen it before, probably not even on this forum if you cant find the link (searching isn't hard) whoop de do.
i stand by my "who cares" statement, as i and others hadn't seen it before,
yes it hit a nerve, people screaming repost without posting the link to the previous posting is one of the most annoying things on a forum

link it up or don't bother posting......

Good luck to that thing actually having any power to move...if memory serves me correct...the bigger the wheel, the more power the vehicle loses
