These were not hubcaps, they were actual wheels ! Somebody spent good money to put these on their car. Why?

You know what? I'm alright with this. I would never do this to my car, but it is amusing to see on a beigey Windstar.

Put them on a VW bug "jeans" and I'd say they'd be perfect...

Not a fan of the combination of car color and those wheels, but they did it because those wheels are FUCKING AWESOME.

They'd be better on a Miata. Or maybe a VW Cabrio or a Fiat 500.

Because marriage does dumb things to good people.

if they have a teenage son might keep him from driving it.

My son hates driving my car because of my license plate. :)

The fact that they aren't hubcaps is what makes them so great. That takes commitment.

I would never drive your car with that plate. Rather walk.

Those would look great on DeMuro's 360.

It wasn't actually intentional but was a nice perk. :)

I don't like people driving my car anyway.

Me neither. Especailly after my buddy drove mine into a snow bank. Stupid snow I hate you.

I'm guessing you've never seen the notorious Ronal Teddy Bears...

Or these....these....dickwheels.

Id get that rim as a full size spare, just to motivate me to get my tire fixed quicker

Put those on a pink New Beetle. Seriously.

I have to disagree man, those are awesome! The problem is the car, it should be a new beetle or a white f350 diesel dually.

They're not so bad. I wouldn't have put them on a gray minivan, though...

you caught them mid-transformation. There's suppose to be eyelashes for the headlights.

I remember them being offered specifically for the Volkswaen (then-) New Beetle when it was introduced. I believe you could order the center cap to match the color of the car.

Pssh. Amateurs. My mom had a Nissan Quest piece of shit. Tailgate was covered in no less than 8 large paw-print decals, the van was painted periwinkle (Terrible terrible color) and the license plate read "MEOUW". Obviously, Meow was already taken, so she opted for the miss-spelling. In reality, it just looks like you are an idiot and cant spell. That baby in early high school, Mmmm-Mmmm-Good.
