A large portion of the populous is starting to like ugly rims, but your observation that it seems to particularly affect 300 drivers is correct. It seems every other 300 I see has ugly rims on it. I like the 300, but I think you should stick with stock rims or very modest rims. I'm not big on chrome though.

DODGE CARS CAN FIT 24" OR 26" THAT IVE SEEN, I THINK DODGE MAKES THOSE CARS LIKE THAT WITH A HUGE WHEEL WELL OPENING ON PURPOSE more sales. junk cars imo. and yes its ghetto, to some driving the dodge magnum, 300, and charger.....they see it as how we see our lexus rides. they think it's the shizznit! lol absolute truth. i ask my customers all the time why a dodge? most answers are its cheap, i can put 26's with no problems.

In AZ it's very rare to ever see one with stock wheels on it unless its an SRT. They are almost 100% chrome, and the designs I always see on them are the ugliest truck style wheels

A certain culture likes these cars and rims. Those are my observations in L.A..

You mean like Obama?

I know what you mean. Here in NYC, They're either bone stock, or riding on some ridiculous wheels/paint. (except the srt8's)

Someone at my folks shop told me his 26" rims cost less than my 20" ... I had no response ... Not a good one anyways

Guys I'm going to close this thread because of the ongoing stereotype and borderline racist comments.

Not cool.
