So someone finally does something original and everyone bashes him? That's pretty stupid in my opinion. If people like him didn't want to be different than every Alero would look the same, a big spoiler and stock rims seems to be the trend. I think the 20's look pretty sweet, not to mention original.I have 18 inch spinners on my Alero and it isnt lowered or anything, maybe you guys could make fun of that too. All im sayin is, sure, he talks like hes straight thuggin, but give him a break, he likes it and thats all that matters. Not trying to start anything, just trying to cut the poor guy some slack.

^^OK but 18's are fine, but 20's are too big. I think what a lot of people are saying is that he could have spent the money on other things for his car instead of 3 sets of rims.
Plus the first set he put on was 16's so he most likely bought a 4 banger with the 15" stockers on it. Chrome is way too heavy for a 4 cyl motor. He will kill his tranny or maybe even his motor

wow, well I'll prolly get laughed out of the room if and when I install the air ride adjustable suspension and 20's I was planning on getting a while from now. I don't plan on having problems because I've already started maping out how far I'd have to move everything back and I plan on shaving the wheel wells and removing that door jam that's in the way. The guy is original and he has SOME good ideas, but his atitude and thinking that "more tv's show's off the bling" isn't too cool. If I were him and had money to blow on 20's and all those damn tv's...I'd re-do the interrior first, maybe sued or velvet...something truelly original to an Alero. and I was jokin' about the air ride... lol...but 20's aren't out of the picture...but I plan on going for a much cleaner look and tucking them into the wells.

I'm really having a hard time understanding how you newbies with two months or less on this site can deem something as being "original". Thinking that you're "Alero Know It Alls" only gets you in trouble early in the game.

I say more power to the guy if he likes what he's done. Personally, I wouldn't put 20's on my car, cause I think they look too big and out of place. That's just me.
But just because I say it looks too big doesn't mean I'm bashing the guy. I realize a few people were, because the guy did make a couple of stupid statements. Whoever said "everyone" was bashing him because he did something original, though, apparently didn't read the entire thread. Some people were bashing, but most people just gave their opinions. Like I just did.

^^Correct you are, Si. 18s up front, 20s in the rear, and this was back in '01, so my "original" point still stands.
