Weird Rice style

Well,
I have seens lots of Rice boys but there is a specific type I really don't get.
The car can be just about anything, but most often it is newer types of Chrysler Seebring, semi-old american cars but also imports.
For some reason those guys put on really small rims (usually chromed, goldplated) with lowprofile tires. OK, on some cars it can look good. The worst part is that the wheels stick way out on the side, like the offset is really screwed up. I ROFLOL everytime I see it. Looks really stupid.

What is this style?

Pimped-out, dawg. I have been seeing the pimped-out style as long as I can remember. Ahh, gold plating, wide profile tires and chrome everywhere.

That is old-school. :D

I am from Europe so that's why I haven't seen 'pimped-out' before.
ROTFLOL everytime anyway! I wonder how long the wheel bearings hold up.

<< That's not rice. Have you ever heard of a lowrider? >>



Bingo.

We get both around here, the mexicans in cars like you described & the asians/wannabes in their rice rockets.

Both are retarded if you ask me.

What hurts even worse, though, is when you see a Dodge Ram driving around on wheels like that.

Poor truck.

:(

LOL! Seen that too. My eyes bleed.

btw, I know what a lowrider is, but they are supposed to have hydraulics in them. Right.

LOL! I love those small tires. They provide me endless hours of laughter. I wonder how high the drivers have to rev their cars just to get some decent speed.

Some do, some don't. They might also have air bags too.

As PsychoAndy said, most do, and to be a true lowrider, a car needs hydraulics, but a lot of people just go for the look of a low-rider without the hydraulics, because it's a lot cheaper.

Idiots.

its really easy to break your axle with those tires since they stick out further theres more leverage involved.

What exactly is the difference between latino-rice and the rest.
Don't take me wrong, a real well made lowrider made with taste can look real good.
