Remember this is CA. You will end up getting shot with something like that out here

It doesnt look all that bad but i prefer the look of a tonneau.

caps are for utility trucks, not sport trucks.
wings are for ricers, not trucks.

When your truck is quicker than mine you might have some room to talk.

well
what happens when those rims get a ding and they don't spin anymore?


I thought the Neon thing was stupid, but these spinning rims take the cake.

And I was into the street scene, spent over $20k in mods on a Dodge Avenger.
I still sold it and made a pretty penny.

Spinners rock , but it means you have to clean the brake dust off of essentially 8 wheels or something....

To each his own. I dont personally like them but maybe the guys driving around with them dont care for my rims. If you dont like em, change the channel!

Well, I don't either, but looks ain't everything. If I didn't have another enclosed vehicle to haul my dogs around in I guess I'd have to get a shell for my L. But I'd also get one of those hoists you hang from the garage ceiling to lift the shell off when you're not using it. Btw, wind tunnel tests have conclusively shown that a p/u with a shell is less aerodynamic than one without.

What he said. Can't you just see someone circulating at Laguna Seca with those on their vehicle? Of course they'd never get by tech, after the inspectors picked themselves off the ground and stopped laughing. That might take days.

93Cobra,

The only mod that's missing are the Yosemite Sam mudflaps !



How's life in OH? It's HOT here in Dallas ! TX Motor Speedway ROCKED. Nothing like seeing 220+mph right in front of you!

Take care!

Ronald

He called from FL, but I think he lives in MI. The camper shell phenomenon will spread until it reaches southern CA.

Who is to say a Lightning cannot be used as a utility truck? And run 12's while they are at it......
