Watched a movie last nite and almost choked on the Buffalo Wing

is that, those 20's has spinners on them... :B
Both to die for those who loved low riders and dangle balls :R

while spinners didn't... :S

18" vs 20" Wheels
A few have 'tried' to discuss technical aspects..with little effect. Weight rating
of the wheels does get a bit more notice...they do get the higher
cost of these larger dia tires
The affect of greater rotating mass and the resultant effects are lost to most

Am waiting for someone to mention 'chromed alloy' and then wonder if they know
the maintenance they require. More so for the tire tech who might not care or
know HOW2 on an chromed alloy wheel...
