What Was This Owner Thinking?

The title says it all. Who even makes these? Wow, this is simply distasteful!

Those actually don't look all that bad.

They remind me of Porsche rims of the 80's

 

[dave6666]

Are those stickers on the sills?

Awesum!!!








Actually, those look like what many of the non European descent people do, known around here as spinners.

I agree with Jeff

 

[RobZilla]

Haha I saw that one earlier today on ebay. The idea is there, but those are just too flash and scream, "Im from the ghetto!"

My vote

There is a big difference.

The bling bling rims from the 1st post are a design failure.
1. They do not improve performance and most likely decrease it due to increased unsprung weight.
2. They do not improve or enhance the appearance of the car.

The moons on the other hand were designed to improve performance(decrease drag) for speed runs. They achieve the design goal at the cost of aesthetics, therefore are worthy of some measure of respect.

And so I agree, the title says it all!

IMHO

Here's a scary thought...Someone actually had to think about what wheels to purchase & decided on those.

PLEASE tell me that the stickers are not the 'R racing" stickers from Autozone!!

Isn't that Charlie Brown III's car? Viper-dozen engineer who designed the GTS engine?

I met him at PennState - he had a black GTS with ghost flames (visible on the front fender) and those moon wheels. I don't remember it having the front bumper aero, but that was also almost 10 years ago.

The only thing that helped those wheels is that in the one pic the Lambo kinda takes your eyes away from it! But just for a second.

I was thinking "Type R", but it appears that you may be correct. And that is sooo wrong.

Since I saw this post, I have been wondering what car those wheels could possibly work on?
The only car that comes to mind would be a Lambo Revention and only if they were black....

[vipernate]

Not something I would ever do

 

[SSSSE YA]

Bling Bling, the worst part is some body paid a lot of money for those **** wheels...

 

[SSSSE YA]

One more thought, do they spin ????????? ...

Yes, that is Charlie's car. He goes by MoonViper for obvious reasons.

Is he a member here? I can't find MoonViper in the members directory. Does he still work for Chrysler?
