If I see one, I promise to take some pics before I beat down the owner and rescue his car.

Now that I think about it, I have seen pics like that. There is a thread somewhere in the multimedia forum full of pics of crazy mods that you will probably find such pics.

I have seen wheels like that in like 20's, but it reminds me too much of the late 80's early 90's car scene.

LOL the only thing worse than a bad trend is reviving a bad trend

I think they are stocked in warehouses full of parachute pants, "pump up" shoes, and flat tops.

Believe it or not I have actually seen someone run wire rims on a 4th gen. It was kinda in the ghetto and the car was a blue v6 Camaro .... Probably about 17 inch wired rims .... I think it also had a spoiler on it that looked like it came off of a Supra haha.
