They're still considered to be 30's.

If they fit, put them bitches on

I'm from L.A and I seen them on Sunset a few times. People in the industry have them. Mostly see 22' to 24' though

Same here! There is an awesome black Tahoe that hangs at Bob's Big Boy on the weekend - he has the 24" set - looks good. Some days I get the desire for a set of 22's on my Sub, but so far I haven't found any that are light-weight (+-28 lbs).

I realize nothing has been posted on this thread for like a month, but I thought I would still share this. The other day I was at the local mall, when I saw this white denali with some huge ass rims. Upon closer inspection, I come to find out they are 26's! HOLY S**T!!! They were the DUB Bellagio Spinners, and my friend and I just sat there for like 15 minutes spinning them! The tires were 305/30/26, and the tires must have been like an inch thick.

I was so awestruck by the size of the rims, that it took me till this morning to realize just how impractical they are. When the guy got in his car and left, you could tell the engine was really laboring to even get the car moving at all, because of the big ass wheels. The ride must have been crap too, because the tires were so thin, and im sure they rubbed too, because there was NO fender gap at all, and this thing hadnt been lowered or anything.

Anyway, just thought Id share my first experience with 26's before every one in town has them! (like that is ever gonna happen)

I really hope the owner of that Denali was there allowing you to spin his wheels. If he wasn't that's pretty disrespectful to the owner. I know if I caught some kids running their greasey hands over my rims I'd be ready to beat some ass and have half the mind to run em over.

We didnt actually sit there spinning them for that long, the whole 15 mins thing was just to get the point across of how in awe we were of the rims.

What the fuck

Do any of you dumb mother fuckers have rims? I think those are tight as fuck. They could be more unique rather than fuckin 5 spoke straights. But 26 is the only way to go. I got fuckin 26" Bazo B26's, and all 4 cost me almost 6 grand. Tires were 1000 a peice you dumb fuck whoever said 500. 500 are for 20's MAYBE if you get a good deal. That truck is a piece of shit though, I do agree with you on that. 26" take every bump, just like a normal rim and tire, you could buy shocks, if you have the money but you dont need it, but other than that, you roll like a fuckin millionaire for about 10g's. There is nothing bigger on the road, you are the fuckin king. Spinners for those would only cost about 3g's. I would know because I have some. Dont knock anything, that you wouldn't know about, if you dont know what you are talking about. Peace.

Dude who claims to have 26's is lying out his ass. Mainly b/c of his poor language.
