I don't see anything. That FR-S looks bone stock.

EDIT: Nvm I was looking at the one in the far right.

I'm assuming it was parked in the woods hoping it WOULD NOT be visible to the public... FAIL.

Do those spin when the car is in motion?

Tcoat · 05-05-2015, 08:23 AM

They are just rims for crying out loud. Bizarre ones yes, but still just rims.

A. Wins the award for worst wheels I've seen on our platform thus far.

B. Anyone notice in the background far right there is another white twin?

I have noticed that the white ones tend to travel in packs. Never seem to see just one.

They're probably "lease to own" wheels from some place where "your job is your credit." Those places usually lease the tires too and charge the customers four times what they would pay for the same rubber at WalMart.

No worries. If you get behind on your payments, you can always go get a payday loan.

The one in the background belongs to a buddy of mine. It's actually pretty nice, sitting on coilovers and Ambit RS18 wheels. We had a laugh about it, since he made it onto Jalopnik, but for the wrong reasons.

But to each their own. It's ur car. Do what makes YOU happy.

But please kindly do it with Civic or Dodge Neon and leave our beautiful 86's alone.

You have to put that statement into perspective. One can do whatever they want to their car, but others can have whatever opinion they want of it.
