What struck me in those pages was that apparently a lot of Impreza owners are most concerned with how fast their cars are in a straight line. Not only do some ruin the looks of their cars by fitting them with far too big wheels and lowering the ride height, but they also ruin the handling with that. In effect they make sure the car won't be able to do what it does best anymore. What a bunch of dumbfucks....

In the US its African Americans that do their wheels in chrome. I've seen a few Asians do it, but its mostly the African Americans who put their 79 El Dorado's and 02 Escalade's up on 22in rims...with spinners at that :roll:

Hey dont hate us all believe you me we pay out on rice boys and people with pathetic taste. Most of all we hate people who think they are cool and their car is top shit when its just a 1992 honda civic with a kit, neons and a full sik subwoofa daug. :fist:

That was a major waste of time. The flame war was also pathetic....almost as pathetic as those blinged out WRXs.

Hahahahahahah, you couldn't be more wrong. Maybe in your neck of the woods, but here in California, every race likes to run around on large chrome wheels (Except me. I am very much against chrome). To say that it is mostly Blacks, come one now man. I see a ton of White and Latin guys with the large chrome wheels, spinners too.

I still have stock rims on my WRX

I dont like those rims but nothing wrong with having big rims on cars, the pics u shown are the same type of cars that goto autosalon. Everyone is chroming in Sydney.

when you talk to your fellow asuie buddies tell them they need to be diff, 8 cars with only 2 diff style crome rims between the 8 of them is silly. I can see the first guy liked them so he got them, and then the 2nd guy thought they were cool, but every on has them now! what would be diff would be if some one stayed with the stock rims, then they would actualy stand out.
