i hope this guy is just joking with us because he sees us making fun of the car all the time.
If you arent joking...... it does not look cool to have those big ass rims on cars, you will get laughed at by EVERYONE that passes you, those rims only look good on SUVs, so go sell your alero and buy an SUV, cause you will be giving a bad name to people who drive aleros.

well let him do what he thinks looks good, in the end who cares what other people think as long as you like it. Just please take recommendations from us and do it the safest way possible so you dont plow another car because your stopping distance is doubled and your engine and basicly everything else in the car is gonna be stressed.

yes i agree who cares what people think, but when you are talking about something rediculous like this, then you have to care. i dont understand why people like the looks of those big rims on cars?

Note, he hasn't replied to anything yet....
Sorry dude.... It's just not a good look anyway you look at it... IF you are going that big, make it look worse and put some of those HUGE 33" mud tires on it. |
