No, its a photo that was actually taken down the street from my work over a year ago... back when that size of rim was yet to hit the market. Back then it seemed crazy. Now 30" rims... BAD idea for performance! Especially with lo-pros that extreme... you'll be cracking off the lip of the wheel just driving on a nice paved road?!?!

Those are the thinnest tyres I have ever bloody seen!


There is a BMW X5 in Sydney with 24" rims with 315 wide tyres and the owner is constantly smokin them up.

Lol i have that same truck in a picture but a different view of it from the other side and it looks like it was at an auto show but i say those rims on an escalade would be better, but even better is 26" wire wheels but thats just my own thing, i love wire rims, but how big are shaqs rims, anyone know if they are 26" or 28" i think they are 28s but i dunno, the ones on the hummer i do believe

True.. to each his own, I guess:bandit: I just know that I love the way my new Suburban kicked azz left & right (when it actually ran - see my other posts). I love doing mass-burnouts and seeing peep's jaws just drop... can't do that when you've got $15,000 spent on your rims...
