Both tires and hair are crazy indeed .
So they inject air into the tire instead of do the fire deal?

gotta be the hair! it took them 3 mins to chit chat and mount the tire, but it probably takes him 30 mins to do the hair

Pretty wild stretch.

I didn't realize they still did hair that way...this is a screen cap from Kamikaze Girls​ 下妻物語, Shimotsuma Monogatari

I don't get the whole tire stretch thing.

Must be a quest for the low performance look or something...

sorry guys but that tire isnt stretched. They just mounted to the middle of the wheel. The side walls arent even that stretched.IMHO this is only making the car look ugly, unsafe, and ruin performance.

Whats up wit the hair. Is that like a Japanese Rockabilly style.

Urr ... no. Bosouzoku is the name for a type of gang, a gang that ride motorcycles typicaly, but it does extend to cars as well .

The hair style is call the "regent" style over here, actually pronounced "Ri-zen-toh". And it is sported not only by gang members, but ordinary people as well.

As for the wheel stretching, yes there are idiots over here who drive around on wheels like this, and to make things worse they usually drive with their family in them. It it unsafe for them and the people around them, I just wish the police did more about it.
