Where did the spinners go?

Yeah I know I'm like a decade behind but, uh, what happened to the spinners scene?

The original Davin wheels were pretty cool the first time I saw them, but...my first thought was, "cool, they copied that old lead sled trick".

Oh, thanks for the clarification. The OP is speaking to hub caps, that go round and round when the car isn't moving.

I thought maybe he was talking about Brodie knobs ...... which would also go round and round when the car wasn't moving ......

I reckon I got some catchen up to do .....

There is a Chrysler 300 club in town here and rest assured that spinners are alive and well with that crowd!

Wow I try to be open minded but that looks like shit and it's not even done well. Those hacked fenders are going to give him a puncture. Sucks he probably paid good money to have that done too.

That pink 300 aint bad though haha

I feel like that is way more forgivable than 35" spinners on a classic Cadillac fleetwood.
