Just finished this little summer project with my little brother.

His budget was very small so we opted for "trailer wheels" (actually stock car/dirt track wheels) and I am pretty happy with the result.

New wheels will be coming over the winter but for the time being these wheels served their purpose and at $30 something a wheel they sure beat the hell out of the stock teardrops.

I know its not the coolest thing ever but he is 19 working in a warehouse like 50 hours a week to afford this, I like it, but more importantly he likes it which is all that matters.

Props to him. Cleaner car then 90% in this thread too. IMO, right now he has an 8. Put some used SSRs on there and crank that shit to 12. Tell him +1 for not being a loser and dropping the rear flare low to try and tuck more tire.

Sorry, I'm a dick but anything other then JDM wheels or at least copys of JDM wheels really kills the whole "Dorisha" look to me. Its like some fineassbitch steps out of a limo wearing this tight little dress but then you notice her feet and shes wearing some fucking twice deployed combat boots. Pretty decent analogy.

car looks amazing to me, wheels look fine to me. i really see no need to change them. i don't understand the problem some have with steelies. i like them, some of my favorite car builds use steelies. but then again i care not when it comes to whats culturally acceptable in any scene. culture is not your friend unless you like for your friends to keep you in marketed biased limits and boundaries.

I wouldn't want trailer wheels, but id rather have trailer wheels than tires with the amount of stretch in the middle picture. Last picture is enough, any more stretch is unnecessary.

It's sad that people have to pre-justify their choices so zilvia nerds don't jump down their throat.

I like it. I have a lot of adjusting to do. But I don't have to squint too hard to see the end result so I guess that's nice.
