(this is not Photoshop)


Ummm... what do you all think?

I think they are UGLY and a waste of money!!!!!
:apuke: :apuke: :apuke: :apuke:

well if they were better looking id get em, if i had a truck and $10,000 to spend on rims.

They may work on some vehicles, but they aint workin' for that one.

Um... yech... WAAAAYYY to big. Damn ugly if ya ask me.:bloated:

not for racing, and not those rims, and not that car, but 26" rims? oh yea:D

They must be very heavy. I wonder if that SUV has enough torque to run them over... :D

Definitely bangin... just not practical...

I dont care what yall say! i am strait up diggin that! :cool:

Those ROCK...but they should lower the suspension a lil to make it look so not high up...other than that

how much did those babies cost?

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...:rolleyes:

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...:rolleyes: :smoker2:

Check out the Diablo in the background!

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.

those rims are pretty bling bling but you still gotta show some respect cause you know they were at least 10k. heres another pic of the truck that ive had on my site for a while

my boyfriend was putting a whole bunch of tv screens in this one drug dealers 02 excursion last week. he only had 24s but still, that truck kicked ass. when we were driving it back to the guys house we kept on getting rolled up on by thugs and we were all scared because we kept thinking we were going to get car jacked.

Lol, that thing looks crazy. I like how it looks when it is lowered.... it looks like one of those little drawing people put on t-shirts of civics and stuff where they have wey oversized rims and lots of negative camber.

I would drive it like that ;)

DAMN!!!

yep those tires last what... .2 weeks

yeah, what's the profile? Like 20?!?

If I remember right, it was like 25 (or was it 15?).

Needless to say, 26" rims haven't gained much popularity since I originally posted this poll...

what kind of rims are the ones that once you start rolling theres a second rim inside that keeps moving after you stop, it was on mtv cribs and they were like 10 grand

i have a catalog with those rims in it...or something like it...they are like 12 grand i think...ill have to find it though and check, but they are cool, from what i saw on cribs

I just have one thing to say, OMG!
Lol, I don't think that they'll fit on my car!

"what kind of rims are the ones that once you start rolling theres a second rim inside that keeps moving after you stop, it was on mtv cribs and they were like 10 grand"


I think they are called "moonwalkers".:sun:

THESE RIMS ARE THE SH!T, I SAY THE BIGGER THE BETTER, BETTER FOR FLOSSING, BIG RIMS IS A SIGN OF PRESTIGE, IT MAKES PEOPLE LOOK YOUR WAY, ISNT THAT THE POINT OF HAVING A NICE RIDE, BIG RIMS WOULD HELP, BUT YES UNDER A DIFFERENT RIDE FOR SURE, HUMMER WOULD BE SWEET



there are many different types of "moonwalking" rims, theres some at a site like davinwheels.com or something close to that but i know that other companies make them and call them spinners, but there is one site, with movies of these rims on a navigator, and mercedez wagon, pretty tight,

a hummer would crush those rims...

theyd never fit on a car..without making it looks like a 4 wd and like 20 inches off the ground..

who got the 26" rims?

Wasup man holla at ya boy!

the ones on there are called the Davin's.... they are pretty phat..ive seeen em in person. i know that they are for the high rollas....just picture cleanin em. you have to have a maid clean em up for you..haha

If you get 24" spinners it will run you about $20,000.

Now I remember why I avoid this particular forum like the plague...

Call me old fashioned, but I'll go for 17" 2 piece Fuchs any day of the week... 17x8 wheel, 14.5 lbs, with an anodized black finish...

(these are custom wheels, not factory)

I think those wheels look ridiculous, and that anyone who buys a wheel bigger than 18" is just wasting their money for a look. Sort of like putting stickers on you car :rolleyes:

oh shyt !!! :eek:

a black school bus


i think u got your idea from mah boy tho

Reminds me of The Grinch!

If you think those 26" rims are big, check this out ...

what the hell are those!!!!:bloated:

40"s!

WHOA

Show me a killer brake set-up with 20" rotor to justify the wheel size, and perhaps...

:jumpie:

Photoshopz!

Well, this thread was started a year ago... back then I thought 26" rims would never be made. I was wrong & they seem to be creepin' up in popularity in some crowds. The sad thing is... these rims DECREASE performance! They weigh so much that the engine has to struggle more to turn them.

Give me 17" forged alloy wheels anyday and I'll :smoker2: you!

LOOKS LIKE IT BELONGS ON RAILROAD TRACKS

So the first one's a Photoshop as well? Thought so! I know the one I had was. And yeah, wheels seem to be getting increasingly larger, espeically with the growing popularity of SUVs - mainly in the US. Adding wheels that aren't original size to any car (even if I put 17" on my car, it has 16") affects the speeometer, gearing and several other factors.

FIRST ONE ISN'T PHOTOSHOPPED...I THINK THAT WITH A SETUP LIKE THAT YOU'D HAVE TO GET SOMETHING LIKE A SUPERCHARGER

28 Inchers

30"s

30'!!!!!! Thats just crazy look at how the tires are extremely low profile. Any pics of them on a truck?

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?!?!

360Modena1117 30'!!!!!! Thats just crazy look at how the tires are extremely low profile. Any pics of them on a truck?

Don't have any pics, or can't find any at the moment, if I find some I'll post 'em.

The owner of that must know self defense to beat off the disgusted and insulted mob.

ugly damn ugly

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

Shaqs wheels on his H2 are 26's.

i dont anyone with those kind of rims cares about performance... i wouldn't

Are you sure they are still called tires they look like a few black rubber bands with the goodyear written on the side! :hehehe: :hehehe:

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...

NOOOOOO ... seriously that don't look good..

cause now you can't slam that ride.. look stupid

i'd say get some 20 - 22's and lower the ride more!

those really arent 30"s they are 24''s with a 6'' lip that woul be insane lexani al so has some that are 19" with a 3" inch lip that fit on cars that can have a 35 series or higher tire.
