Maybe it looks better in person but way too much red on the back end
Does the front bumper look like it dips down in the middle or the grill is higher in the middle ?

You have to crawl under the car to turn the battery kill switch off and pull out the key ?

9 second, 220 mph ?
Again...9 second ...what? Certainly not a 9 second quarter mile with those tires! a 285-30-20 ?

I don't care how much time, money and work went into it, that thing is hideous.

There is a 75 Camaro somewhere that wants it's rear spoiler back!

I'm trying to picture it without those gawdawful wheels.

I'm thinking some NASCAR steelies, chrome bumper, and properly painted grill/tail panel would go a long way towards keeping your lunch down when you looked at it.

[CDN72SE]

No thank you.

So...someone ran to Vato-zone, picked up some cans of spray paint and went to town, without even bothering to mask anything off, it looks like.  Blacked out grilles are so backyard it's not even remotely funny.  If the paint didn't look so hideous I might be able to appreciate the spoiler, but no...

20 inch "Baller" wheels wrapped around what, 11" brake rotors? Just, why?

Even if you wanted to pretend your 20" wheels were premium, there is plenty of space between the spokes to show the brakes are not.
I just cannot believe the big wheels trend hasn't died yet. Now I'm not saying to keep 15" steelies on a car you're trying to make handle, but putting 20's on things that 20's don't belong on should be in the past already.

Case in point, my new Ram 2500 came with 20's, as part of a "sport appearance package". They ride like shit with an E rated 10 ply tire. They have no business on an HD truck, except to sell trucks to people that think they need them. So I'm in the process of powercoating OEM 18's to black to match the black accents of the truck, as there are no OEM black 18's offered. Just to remove the flintiness the 20's make the ride. These trucks' suspensions are designed to use the tire sidewall as the first wave in acheiving small bump compliance. And when they "upgrade" the wheels to 20"  that same suspension that is tuned for 18" wheels remains.

Every "cool" vehicle I own has big wheels!
22 X 10 on this one.

I bet if it was all black, most would like it.

Hahaha. None of my cool vehicles have bigger wheels than they need. 18"/19" combo on my track car that sees track duty. 17" on my offroad vehicle that actually sees offroad duty.

And then there's my 3/4 ton pick-up truck rollin on dubs........  

[dual fours]

It looks like a plastic toy.

My truck....2007 Ram 1500 could have been an SRT10. They came stock with 22 x 10 wheels like the ones on mine.

[Mytur Binsdirti]

That car is better off sitting where it is. Personally, I'd be afraid to drive that car for fear that it would want to head into a bridge abutment to try to kill itself.

Crush it

Yup, but with tires to fill out the wheel well on a full sized truck, you'd need a 22" wheel to reduce sidewall flex on a truck(.....) with sporting intentions. So on an SRT pickup it makes sense. Emulating an SRT pickup makes sense.

Putting dubs on my 2500 4x4 diesel tow-mobile? Only sense it makes is to sell trucks to people who think they need 20's.......

[Kern Dog]

Okay, I can see the point.
