At speed it looks like tire chains. Snapped in Irvine this morning.

Very out of place on this Burb and maybe on anything for that matter.

I'm kinda wondering how they mounted the tires without running into those deals?

I don't like the looks of it, but on the flipside I guess there's only so much shit you can do with rims before you have to start doing things different.. LOL

They mount from the back.

TSW had a 22" wheel that looked like a 24" because there was a 1" lip that covered the sidewall.

I thought if you loose air in a tire those things are toast or you stop damn quick.

They appear to bolt into the wheel which was designed for them. Everything kind of interlocked.

Ok from the back...that makes sense.

Still a big WTF to the driver. He was in a hurry and I was in my Jeep. My jeep is missing the hurry up gear so there was no catching him.

Sometimes it amazes me what people will spend their cash on.


The word ugly is all that springs to mind.

I think that eating random pubic hairs off a public restroom floor would actually be more appealing to me than that wheel is. I'm also kinda curious what happens if a tire blows.

Goes to show, if you make them (no matter how ugly) someone will buy them.

Totally Gay, the next time you see them try and let the guy know that Hub Cap Annie & Wheel will repair those P.O.S. each time he runs into curbs, potholes etc., etc.

Those are ugly in my opinion. You are lucky you didnt drop your cell phone while trying to take that picture.

Those would look nice on the ol' georgie boy. :thumbsup

Who's? Yours or mine? :D:D

I think they look a little three legged pimp. :D

Next year make miniature pine wood derby wheels and knock the competition off the track speed racer style. :thumbsup

20 minutes ago, I just saw that exact vehicle in Garbage Grove. Why use tools to edge the lawn when you can drive the perimeter. Makes more time for tall boys and siestas.

Roman chariots come to mind. Maybe he should sharpen the tips a little more to be more effective :hmm:D
