Exactly. I don't understand how. When 25% of your tire treads don't touch the ground its "*cool". And don't get me started on removing your steering wheel while driving

This is true. The 911 owners I know replaced theirs almost immediately.

Let me use this thread as an opportunity to say that I like looking at some flushness, with "some" being the operative word--nothing overdone. I have difficulty seeing the aesthetics of having drastically different front and rear camber (a.k.a. broken axle look).

switchlanez · 06-25-2013, 06:34 AM

I want to like this because I drive a BRZ of the same color. And the look doesn't bother me... but having seen one friend after another experience hellafails while rolling around hellaflush, I felt their frustration. It's a gesture of ignorance towards the safety of others on public roads. No troll intended.

Would be nice if you could... tow it to photoshoots. For now I still say Kawashima Celica decimates all. Til after you put about fifteen grand in it... or more.

I like the rims, but something in me shudders when I see combos like this. get rid of those center caps! I gotta say that the tahoe rolling on cadillac rims messing with me last night looked much much sillier than those though. Something about the mismatched manufacturers just screams poser to me. kind of like seeing a 328 rebadged with m gear, or a civic ex rebadged to si, etc.

You just gave examples of "poser" as rebadging cars to higher models. ex. 3 series BMW to M3

Vic didnt rebadge anything...these are Porsche wheels on a Subaru. He would be poser, according to your examples, if he switched the center caps to Subaru....
