What's Rice?

Not meant to start a flame war or anything, but just wanted to get your guys' opinions.
Well what do you think rice is? As far as I know, ricey basically means tacky, tasteless, cheesy etc. I mean someone puts a HUGE Type R sticker on his hood, and he's driving a stock LS, then most would consider that ricey. But to me, it's almost more the attitude the person has. Like, if the guy has an LS, and he has this huge Type R sticker, but his attitude is like, hey this is my LS and yeah I've got a huge type r sticker...then that's cool...I wouldn't call his car ricey...but if he's like yeah this is my integra and this sticker's so f***** cool and thinks his s*** don't stink, then I'd call it ricey.
I guess, I mean yeah there are certain things that are just plain ricey. I don't think Altezzas are ricey, unless the owner bought them actually thinking he was going to fool people into thinking he has an IS/Altezza. I dunno...I mean I know EVERYONE hates altezzas, but I don't really see them as being ricey. APC Altezzas-hey cool...APC floor mats with flames-ricey.
I guess this thread should be more about what would make you call someone's car ricey.
And if you haven't noticed, this is another one of my ramble threads
What about conversions? I'm doing the BMW conversion...I don't think that's ricey. I'm not trying to fool people into thinking my civic is a Bimmer. You know if someone came up to me and said, hey that's a nice BMW, or hey, what color is your BMW...I might chuckle, but then I'd let them know it's a converted civic. Now if someone actually did the conversion and was going to swear up and down that his civic was a BMW, I would consider that ricey. Or if someone went so far as to put the emblem on...I would consider that ricey. BMW headlights and grills-cool BMW emblem-ricey
Well I'll probably have more to ramble on about, but I'll leave it at this for right now. Feel free to post your thoughts on what's rice and what's not

everyone's had enough of rice threads if you want to argue about it go to one of the plentiful Rice topics somewhere else on the boards. They nearly are always locked though

The thread is about rice, right?
If you want to be insulted, and want to know what I deem F-in rice when it comes to car....I can do that too.....
But I don't want to discuss F-in rice nor insult you.

cool...weren't a dick about it either:smile:
I do like the white rims better, but I didn't dislike the chrome rims either...thought they looked better when the car was black...wouldn't call them rice though
too me, rice would be, 14" aftermarket rims on stock tires...but even then, if I saw that, I wouldn't hate on the person unless I was in a bad mood:biggrin:
