Ok so i was buying gas at a shell one nite and a 300c chrysler came to pump next to me. He had 24's on his chrysler "one piece" generic brand knock off. I know this cuz i use to own a custom paint shop and sold wheels. anyways he said " Nice car man"! i said thanks bro ! you too!" then he goes you gota step it up with some 22's on your lex.1st of all 22's wont fit on a 06 ES330 ! i said ! then he says then you gota get a big boy toy with big boy wheels like mine. ! So at this point im like ! YO you drive a nice car but its not a big boy car. its not even a hemi! or got leather seats . ! and you got some boo boo wheels. then he says you got 20's i gotz 24's !! then im like my joint is a 3 piece vellano wheel forged modular wheel. retail $1625 each. then he goes what is a 3piece wheel!!???? duh!! i told him his wheel ill estimate my cost 900 with tires retail it for like 2200-2400$. he said mine is bigger and better.. i said mine may be smaller but with quality. anyways my point is why do people that drive these chargers and 300c think they big ballin cars. and cocky! does anyone notice this !? its a nice car but PEOPLE treat it like its a bentley! its not!!!

 

Oh well...

Some people mod their cars for pure aesthetics.

It's a style that you may not appreciate, but it's the most popular with certain car cultures.

 

LOL, similar incident happened to me last month.

i'm in my 2GS talking to some neighbors. a guy pulls up in nice G35 sedan on some BIG wheels, jumps out, looks at me, and says "I gotta wash my $30k baby on my 22s". i just smiled and waved
1. i never knew 22s could fit on a G35
2. his car looked like ***** on those wheels (glad it wasnt parking in my garage)
3. his 22s, 1 pc pieces of cr@p, looked to run him what my tires cost me

to people like this

with dr phil...but i also must add...TO EACH THEIR OWN (just do what i do like the penguins, smile and wave boys, smile and wave)

 

hahah i was at the west covina field of dreams last week, and some guy in the poor mans bentley says to me.." sup bro, coo ride, but i prefer my chrysler 300 with 22s.." ha ha i just laughed in his face and said, that's cute, i wish i could get a poormans bentley with knock off crap wheels too. would've saved me a ton on my car. then he gave me a dirty look. ha ha he happened to be the pitcher we played against that night as well...let's say he had to protect himself everytime i was up at bat.

 

Your right it is a popular car! Its a nice looking car! what he had was his style or whatever his finances could get him, but dont talk crap to me, if you dont know your stuff.. Im just saying dont talk all big if you dont know what your talking about. and then look like a fool!

 

Hey Vellanolex
Yeah i dont know why people think Chrome 22 Rims make you a rap star or big baller or something. No se
Where is your shop located, i might need some paint work. Im in sacramento CA.

 

but then life wouldn't be so FUN.

 

some people always insist, bigger is better
however, in this case, quality supercedes the above.

 

ARISTO I actually closed down my shop due to bad sales in the past year, it was in so cali sorry bro! its not about looking like a rapper its just this guy looked liek a fool but i dont think he realized it. he probaly went home and googled "3 piece wheel " and find out who really one that debate.. lol

 

 

haha i doubt he has a computer if he spent his life savings on a poormans bentley and some plastic chrome coated rims..haha i kid i kid. seriously, i live in the SGV, and my teammates and friends are hispanic and all have bentley300s..and boy do i hear crap from them...until they look at my car and i explain how much money they wasted. ha ha. but like people say, your money, your taste, your satisfaction.

 

alot of them here in SFV with chrysler and charger with big A$$ rims think they're all ballersss....i just laughed, like WHATEVER...
