    Re: Nice rims! should i get me some??

    dang! you can special order something as crazy as that? That is ridiculous. I can't imagine why anyone would buy those except to be ridiculous, but that is still really extensive.. I bet that things top speed is increased but a whole bunch, unless the hundreds of lbs of extra wiegh slow it's top speed too..i guess that's probably the case. oh well. It's stupid.

        I think it would be extremely unstable at high speeds

          lol that is obviously photoshopped because u can see the ground at the top of the rim where there should be car and the front rims are only about 6inchs wide

            Looks like a penny farthing.

              It's photoshopped. A representative for Lexani once stated at a SEMA show that a rim that is over 27 inches would bend/warp under the pressure of any small S.U.V. or any heavier car and unless you had a nice stack of spacer blocks (those things that the people you see with old chevy's on 22's have to make the car stand like 3 feet off the ground) it would be impossible to make a U-turn.

                  Clearly photoshopped, but if it were real you would have to change the brake rotors every time you stoped somewhere. They would fade and warp pretty quick.

                        i don't know guys... i saw a truck with big enough rims for me to sat in... it was at a car show and they drove the truck around. But i can't imagine how much it would cost, or what you could do with that kind of money.

                        speaking of rims... have you guys seen the pimpstars?

                          That reminds me of the hummer at the end of Cars.
