Wot da flock would you want with 26" rims, except for the "bling-bling" value?? Only heavyweight ballers, sports/entertainment figures can probably afford them! And then, to top THAT off, nobody's even touched on the TIRES for 'em!! DAYUM!! I bet you've gotta take out a small business loan just to LOOK at them... let alone buy them!!

But maybe, like ZondaFreak02 said, if they lowered the suspension a bit, it'd look a bit more symetrically tight!

To each their own, I guess...

the problem with it is that, yeah, they need to drop it alot, but if they do that, the turining ability becomes nill, not bad for show if dropped, but you'd have to bring it on a trailer, and that would not *bling* unless you bought more of 'em and put them on the trailer too... :smoker2:

The rims are hot as hell, but you need a different truck for them. The Landcruiser is alright, but you defintly need something bigger. Like a suburban denali, them rims would look tight on a suburban denali. Or a chromed out hummer, those dubs would be just right for a chromed out hummer. They will also look good on an excursion. You need a really big truck for these rims. I think they would also look good on any streched out suv limo.
