I've seen forty foot containers, but not wheels.

In a few years styles will change, and all the rappers will be rolling on 8" wheels. People with big wheels will be considered dorks, and the race will be to see who can get away with the smallest possible rims.

I have seen the original version of that picture. The Land Cruiser had 26" rims. This was back when 22" were the biggest out there. Later I saw the same photo chopped up to be 30" rims and now they are back as 40" rims.

I just recently saw a Nissan Armada with 30" wheels, as stated by 7 different stickers plastered all over the monstrosity, and it looked ridiculous Yes I remember when this Landcruiser really had 26" wheels, and it still looked stupid
