Actually the cost of rims has dramatically decreased over, I'd say the past 4 or 5 years. Especially spinning rims, right now it's about putting the obsolute biggest rims you can on a car. I'm talking putting a lift kit on a car to put 26'' or 28'' rims on a car. Spinning rims is kinda lame now actually, not that it was ever cool in the first place. Oh yeah there's plenty of places that FINANCE rims, which is absolutely absurd. 17'' rims you could prolly pick up pretty cheap, relatively speaking. I get this all the time where I live from a number of different people, "When you gonna put some 22''s on your Satellite?" Of course I reply "I'm going to leave my 15'' Cragar's on there".


DISCLAIMER- Unfortunately I live in the deep south now (I'm originally from the North East) and I have to witness this on a daily basis. Fortunately people only seem to like to do this to "Boxed" Chevy's (I'm talking like a '72 Impala), and tend to leave Mopars alone. However I've seen some other muscle cars that this has been done too and it's horrific. I am not a fan of doing this to any car, let alone classic muscle cars. However people can do what they want to their vehicle, they have to drive it not me.
