So I was in Texas last week and apparently, this is now a thing. I can appreciate many automotive styles and fads, but I don't quite get this one. Seems like it could be dangerous.

I saw at least 5 cars rolling through Houston with them.

*sigh* You were in Houston specifically....weren't you? I really don't get why these hideous Ben Hur reject wheels are a thing here, but they are. Most of us just try to ignore them.

SLABS have been a thing for at least 20 years now, native to Houston. Probably my favorite car culture, those particular swangas are "gorilla poke" the furthest poke TWW (texan wire wheels, the main manuacturer of swangas) makes.
Shoulda tried to goad him into popping his trunk.

Agreed, this is stupid.
They are willing to sacrifice the ability to park in tight lots (which is most of them where I live)....to pay and have this added to their cars ? lol
Another thing. What is swang? (Rhetorical question. I assume it has something to do with being a fake-gangster couple that sleeps around) I thought it was "swing" and "swingers".
It bothers me when people don't enunciate intentionally, to a point where I suspect they have a speech impediment.

Dude. Talk about completely hostile to pedestrians and cyclists. And mine eyes. You can buy another set of legs, Charlie Murphy, but
what about my eyes??!?
Listen, I know Texas has tried to make great strides in letting you know how great a place it is, blah, blah, blah, but Austin is incredibly, unbelievably overrated, Houston is a 'hood, Dallas has a nice Catholic school and a bandwagon football team, and overall the whole joint is just sweaty. Apologies to my dad, a Texan, and all other Texans too. The place is wack.

saw this one in Austin last week. I found it funny that he'd messed up the rear driver one, yet still rocking it..

This is swangin'
play on the texan pronunciation on "swinging", the motion your arm makes while doing it. "Swangas" go on cars that people "swang" in, hence the name.
Philistine.

Yes. Houston.
Also was in Dallas, Waco, Austin, Fredericksburg, and San Antonio. This style was peculiar to Houston it seems.

Unfortunately, it really is. Fredericksburg is a fun town, some really nice winding back roads in that area with very pretty scenery.
