[dumb rant of the day]
I just got off work, and I'll be frank, I was delivering a pizza in the ghetto tonight. I saw this guy with his two sons and their tricycle and big wheel - the father was putting tin foil in the spokes of the wheels on both bikes - trying to simulate chrome wheels

As I turned the corner a little bewildered, I saw that he had an old '90s beat up caprice in the driveway sitting on 20's.

It's not to funny, but just goes to show how whacked some people's priorities are. The rims + tires are easily over $5k. "I live in a crappy and dangerous neighborhood, in a dillapidated house, and my kids are running around bearfooted with tattered clothes, but hey, i've got bing bling

"

hey u have to keep up with the joneses even in the ghetto.....

I've always been around brooklyn, because my father's business is there, and it's all like that. All these people (leaving ethnicity out) live in houses that are falling apart, yet they have a beat up car with large chrome rims or spinners. It really dumbfounds me.

Hey, if you've got the money to afford it, I have no problem with it. But when you kids obviously need new clothes and shoes (dude, it's like 50 degrees here) and your house is falling apart, I just don't see buying rims as a priority.

Ain't got no job, but i stay shy
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent
but thats ok, cause im still fly

Exactly...

I see that alot in Tucson.
Some idiot driving a beat up 80's domestic with gold plated 13" wheels. And no, it's not a lowrider.
Other f-tards drive around in 80's Nissans with the same gold wheels but now they stick out 10" outside the car.

Yeah, that's cool.

Yeah..makes it all the better.

Quite a few times I have talked to people buying EXPENSIVE new rims and I always ask them if they are going to get new rotors and callipers to match...I always get the ame answer

"WTF do I need those for?"

Ness · Dec 18, 2003

yeah, the whole rims thing pisses me off.

But on a happy note, at least the dad was trying to make his children happy... since he probably spent their lunch money on a dime bag earlier that day.

The person in question drives an older model domestic car equipped with wheels that have a 20" diameter, which will from this point forward be referred to as "dubs", or "20's". Would you like some cheese on the cracka sir?

Which part of Crooklyn ? I haven't seen too many places in Brooklyn like you describe there. Lots of Lexus' and Beemers actually.
