Ughhhh. Another chariot from Ben Hur. At least when you run over a dime you'll be able to tell if it's heads or tails...

Not my cup of tea. I like sidewall. You're treading into clown car territory, IMO.

I knew some people would oppose. When I had 20's on my 06 I got a little shyt about it. But oh well. It's money and it's my stang. Maybe inshould have went with some 18 inch bullets or Rtr's. Maybe some Foose huh? My stockers were 19's I'm not about to drop 2 g's to get 20's.

I'd say "LOWER THAT BTCH!", but the front almost already looks lowered? You need more meat on the back.

I wonder how 3.00 gears would feel?

At least he didn't donk that thing out. Otherwise, he would be putting food ads on his car and putting a truck lift kit on it.

I've seen that around here, but I still don't understand what they are trying to achieve by the candy/cereal logos...

It's really stupid if you ask me. All the Donk guys always HAVE to go for a food theme.

For that candy donkmobile, Reese's called, They want their logo back because that ugly thing has dropped Reese's candy sales worldwide!

They look good though.
I don't know what happened to Texas, but it seems the entire state is being lit up with speed bumps. That is one reason why I never lowered my car, those damn things are everywhere and even normal driving would cause you to scrape like crazy.

20in rims scare me enough when going over speed bumps. I would be too damn afraid that I would F*** up 22in rims if I had them.
