    Okay, thats real dumb.. I remember back in the day when rims really were top dollar, and not many people knew much about them or could afford them. And now most people have them, and some even have hubs.. I am not crazy about spinner hubs.. thats TOO ghetto for me; )

    they make them for the front now to. those look kinda funny with the way a dually wheel is made. but they do hug the rim they dont just stick out. when i was driving semis, i would see all kinds of bad ass trucks out west. best one was a slammed old school. peterbuilt with a chop top. bout as tall as an suv.
