What's wrong with a 7.5 inch wide wheel on an S-chassis? :facepalm: I don't even feel like getting into this today...

Meh, it's will probably look better then stock wheels. As long as they're inexpensive and decent looking go for it.

Not everyone has 1k+ to drop on wheels.

Idk man, I think stock wheels look pretty decent. But nice wheels do cost a pretty penny

C'mon... You and I both know you don't have to spend $1k to buy new & decent fitting wheels. If you don't know, my sig links might help. XXR is your buddy for cheap wheels that fit alright.

This is false.

Stock wheels are better than anything less than 9 inches wide. :facepalm:

QFT. I look at my sunken a** 7.5 inch wide wheels every day. The only good thing about mine is they clear Z brakes. 7.5's suck.

So basically, you just wasted $150 that could have gone toward the wheels you actually wanted... I'm not trying to be an a**. This is just how I see things. Why waste time and money on some bootleg sh*t you're just gonna get rid of? Just save for what you really want in the first place. XXR is cheap enough...

bootleg? they are not bootleg wheels they are actually pretty reputable wheels in Europe...good quality and all...they go over $700 on ebay for 16s...and like i said for $150 i couldnt pass up on them and they are in great shape not a single scratch on them...yeah i know i sent $150 on these when i could have been $150 closer to the xxr's...its ok im getting those as soon as they come out i already have the money for them as of today after selling some parts that were taking up space...now i just have to wait for the xxr's to come out
