I think if you made a list of the most terrible wheels to put on a car - those pictures covered them all. Damn that is awful!!

The red LS400 looks like a crown victoria taxi, also notice the plate on the LS "West Coast Customs" lol, that's the garage they use in Pimp My Ride....

What does LUG style mean? Perhaps NYwizard style?

So to me nothing new with seeing rims like that, I see them all day and all night here. The most common is 22's spoke wheels though.

EXACTLY. That's what the Japanese think of what "american styling" is all about. Thus LUG VIP is born. Wait till you see their 2F2F cars. They turn perfectly beautiful JDM integras and S2000s into silly, sticker-covered, vinyl batmobiles.....
