I agree. That's a reason to buy a Miata, right there.
Have some terrible F-350, courtesy of Jefferson County, Colorado.
F-350...what's that badge there on the side?


POLICE INTERCEPTOR



What about this other F-350?


Whoo, boy! A KING RANCH Police Interceptor!


What, exactly, they're going to intercept?

I'll bet around 97% of all Jeeps won't see anything rougher than a pothole or wet/icy road until they're 8-10 years old and on their third owner.

I can't find the picture I'm looking for, but you should definitely use silver spray paint to half assedly spray a "big wheel" pattern on your sidewalls. Without a stencil of any kind.

So, I know it looks like a Beetle now that it's all squished in but is that a Cavalier in the intersection that managed to knock him upside down and 50+ feet away? Because that's pretty A.I. I think.

Ok, time for a terrible car question. I'm switching to my snows probably next week and as I will miss my 19s, what should I do to spruce up my little baby wheels? 15" steelies with Conti Winter Extremes.

I saw these on a car a few years ago. Looking online, they made these hubcaps in 15''



Spraypaint them chrome for that touch of class.

Edit: Turns out they are actually proper alloy wheels

I am, because they plug up the fuckin' trail with their busted poo poo and usually spend time propagating bad info to people who don't know any better.

The first one has 10-12 inches of lift to clear 35s, you can clear 35s on 4-5 inches of lift, and he's got the worst, least reliable radius arm kit available on there. And stock steering links at such a ridiculous height that I'd be shocked if it has less than a quarter turn of play in the wheel and will actually turn without the tie rod ends binding up completely if the right front wheel is up and the left front is down. You can see how close to maxed out the TRE on the right steering knuckle is.

e: ahahah I just noticed something else, he's running a stock tie rod with a locked front diff, 10" of lift, and giant tires. For reference I have bent those badly screwing around in a snowy parking lot in a stock cherokee... and put a significant bend in one by laying it on the ground in my yard and jumping on the middle of it. They are spaghetti-stiff and have no place on any upgraded cherokee.

The second is weak stock drivetrain/suspension parts turning tires way too large for it, hackjob frontend work, and general redneck bullshit. Plus if someone's got two or more steering stabilizers on their rig you can almost guarantee they are either bad at cars or made the mistake of listening to someone who is bad at cars when they planned their build.

That's exactly the picture I was thinking of.

Also:


For when one ring of fake beadlock bolts isn't enough, the discerning brotruck ricer can now have TWO!

Wonder how many retards are going to buy those wheels without realizing how obvious it is that they have no idea what a beadlock actually is or how one works.

e: for the unaware, this is every bit as retarded and useless as a wing/fartcan/bodykit on a civic.

There was a guy who took a set and turned them into 3 piece wheels.

Ah, I spotted the more-than-needed lift and thought maybe the tie rod was an issue. I was going to ask, but Chinatown beat me to it.
I imagine you're already aware of Scary Steering (should be http://128.83.80.193/scarysteering/scarysteering.html I can't check at work because the morons who set up our network used 128.x.x.x, a routable address, as our internal addressing, so all requests for 128.x.x.x come back inside. Idiots.) There some amazing hack jobs on there.


Ends up looking pretty military, though. I think I'd actually like it if it didn't have the outer fake beadlock.


That's pretty nifty. You know, this is the first time I've noticed that the lock for the lug cover is the bear's belly button?

Notice other than the bumper, the exhaust that's about halfway to bosozoku status, the hella sick camber, and the debadging. At least they filled the badge holes, although I think you can see the off-tone bondo work where the Honda logo was.

What did the wheels look like?



Not pictured: The sick "racing club" sticker he had on his windshield. Surprisingly the only sticker on his car.

At least the paint is in good condition, but as a Honda owner (you can even see my Prelude in the first shot a bit), it makes me angry.
