Just a Wheel Thought
Hey guys..Ive been seing alot of wheel and tire packages and honestly I have an opinion..Im 34 and Ive been dealing with rims since I was 18 on Ludes etc etc...
In my most humble opinion I hate it and I honestly think its so god damn Ugly when you see the edge of a rim sticking out further than the tire..The Lip I mean..Ive looked and looked at so many of them that Im just like man that sucks..Im not saying the wheel itsel is Ugly just the fact that the lip protrudes the tire..
First off you have 0 protection from a curb even a slight curb rub and your rim is gone...I talked about this to many shops and they also saw my point of view..
Ive always liked a rim tucked in and have the tire even if its a few milimeters or a centimeter sticking out...
This was just a thought...
