I agree with texasf355f1, that guy that claims to have bazo b26s in a 26" rim IS full of shit. those rims are so expensive.. no scratch that, the tires for those rims are so expensive that a little kid that would use that type of language could never afford them. They look cool but unless you plan on cruising by at a blistering 10mph, or trailering them on a show car, they are impractical. You can also forget about doing any highway travel with those rims. Personally, I think anyone that takes a $40,000 to 50 or $60,000 vehicle made specifically for ride quality on the road, and puts those rims on it is stupid. They completely destroy the comfort and luxury you'd expect in that type vehicle. So, to texasf355f1 I say . to ridin26ford i say and your 26" bazo 26s.

i'm sorry for that little rant about him but i can't stand people that put those size rims on a luxury suv or truck. 20"s are about as big as you could get and still have a sort of comfortable ride. Anything bigger would a waste of money. Once again I'm sorry in advance if my post offends anyone.

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.

i have rims 17's though

A while back I posted about a Denali I saw at the local mall that had 26's, here is the cardomain page for that car.

26s.... Bad ride, reduced power, no tires. Why bother getting them? The biggest I would ever put on a truck would be 22 inches. In my opinion, anything more is ridiculous. But hat's just me. i think the Land Cruiser is good for shows, but that's about it...

Dub Bellagio spinner 22" weighs about 100lbs with tire. Bazo B26 26" weighs little over 100lbs with tire. Spinners add a lot of weight to the wheel. But with simple 5 or 6 spoke 22" wheel ride isn't as bad as some of you might think. On some cars like X5, FX45, you can't even tell difference between stock and 22" chrome wheel. Just for your info.

My homie just got a 2004 Escallade and added some 26" Bazo rims. I think it looks pretty nice. I guess everyone has their own taste. The way I see it is if you can affard it then buy it. That's your into what you buy. Here's a pic I snapped the day he got them. And if you think it's a fake I got more pics.

The rims are nice, but they are too big for a land cruiser, you definitely need something bigger for them.
