Here in lousiville I see them all the time, most of the time on "luxury" SUV's and sometimes the occasional caddy.

agreed, the real deal is getting more and more common, I've yet to see someone running one of those though, I think I'd be tempted to take one...

the hub caps ? ive seen the rims all the time but never hub caps ...and here i thought this was a "new" thing with the hub caps

Dont take 'em.

They add weight and look real stuoid when teh low quality of teh bearings becomes evident when some of them stop altogetehr and others still spin.

Spinning hubcaps= LOTS of extra unsprung weight.

yah i for sure wont , i think its funny looking as hell , im more of the lightweight wheel kinda guy , plus i like the rims on my caddy and my very good michelin tyres

its just funny to see some kid that spent "used stock alumin wheel" money on a set of hubcaps

ive heard the rims that keep spinning sometimes weigh as much as 40 pounds each , whereas my stock G20 wheels weighed 15 pounds

haha those are really nice compared to the ones i saw pep boys selling! i was also thinking that the bearings would rust up after awhile. although u could buy some regular caps and then put the spinners on when u want to look real pimp with ur friends on saturday nights! itll make em last much longer

Queer.

Nothing like a guy who wants (or needs) to "compensate" for a lack of something, then can't even afford to "compensate" and has to do it the cheap way... Sad.

...and queer.

Oh come on, I think queer's even have better taste than those things

Thank god they dont come in rainbow though, then we'd have to worry...A bunch of Mustangs and Miata's with rainbow spinning hubcaps, that'd be a sight.

GAH!

Don't give 'em any ideas. I've had enough of the "blingin" fad.

Post by **Megaseth** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:16 am

hahaha!! spinning teddy bear hubs. or flower hubs.

Post by **Mr1der** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:16 am

I think I'm gonna start a fad of putting a baseball card on the caliper....

I don't know where that came from, just seemed like a really dumb idea not worth mentioning...

I was thinking about putting some spinner hubs on my beater Tercel. Just for laughs of course. It already has feux chrome hubs now.

Post by **Mr1der** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:16 am

there's actually a wheel that resembles a daisy, I can't remember the make now though, something with an M mille Milla something like that...

Post by **AZhitman** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:16 am

Mille Miglias.

They're horrid. There's a New Beetle in my 'hood with those things.

At some point I'm sure I'll have to blow it up.

Post by **rydwhite** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:16 am

Blow it up Hitman. Make sure take some pics and some video and post for us. We all love seeing s*** cars blown up.
