Correct, but there's a difference between saying "I disagree" and making the type of comment you did.

I definitely agree! Worst looking wheels ever

And there's a different between saying "I don't like oem wheels" and calling them "worst ever". The latter is obviously an exaggeration, the purpose of which one can figure out for themselves. I did.

I'm the only one who loves 84's poking? lawl

I think of them as a time and place kind of wheel. Unfortunately, the case in Houston has the time and place as anytime any car. These on an old land boat are swell.

There are definitely wheels I hate more than those including blades, choppers and most other wheels that only come in 22+" and find themselves on b-body caprice's.

To me they look more at home on an ElDorado than the OEM wheels do on an FR-S. lol

These are Original Cadillac wire wheels from an Eldorado. This was my 1984 Fleetwood Brougham de'Elegance.

"look at the oil my cadillac spills." lol

Those wheels are fine and look great on the right vehicle. On a FR-S? No. But if you stuck some Volk wheels on that Caddy it would look just as bad. You want to see some horrible wheels just go to your local Pep Boys, or any tire shop really. It's amazing how horrible some wheels are these days.

My vote for worst rim choice on a vehicle. Hangover part II car.

Learn something new everyday, i had no idea about "swangas" but on the site i saw selling them it says FWD only which i thought was kinda odd. Most cars you would put these on are RWD i would think.

mickey177 · 10-08-2012, 02:53 PM

Yeah I have seen these on everything. Dodge Interpid, Dodge Caliber and a lot of other American cars. Nothing advertised to the world that you are the local street corner drug dealer than these wheels.

The good thing about pokers is that people respect your poker space both on the road and in parking spots. However I would never put them on my vehicles since they are so hideous.
