In response to my earlier post it is that way for grip...a drag racing thing...I know but any one I ever asked about it gave me that same response...

He probably bought two of the rims and then ran out of money.

So a taller wheel with a shorter tire sidewall is supposed to be an advantage?

That's back-asswards...

Thats my thought exactly, these kids (ricers, not tuners) just seem like complete idiots

absolutety... taller tires do work better for traction, no matter what size wheel they are on.... and if you have front wheel drive, well, maybe now you get the idea. those on the front are taller ( the tire ) then the rear... in the old days it was tall in the rear... but then came front wheel drive....

on pinks once there was ricer that ran slicks on the front... looked really weird to an old timer..

That's the funniest stuff I've seen in a while . I understand the theory of big tires to the power wheels for traction but uhmmmmm I'm not sure this car would spin it's one wheel with the stock setup lol. I'm sure you guys have all seen this, but I have to post it.

that was good lance....

while i will defend anyones right to modify their car in any manner they see fit, i do have to admit that ricers are some of the stupidest hot rodders i have ever seen, right next to those idiots who put 24" wheels on monte carlos.

Being an ex-ricer8-O Sorry I was young once...They do this for the same theory as we do for big tires in back with smaller up front

yes but that car couldnt even break loose 12's if it had to

[Darrenscamaro]

Junk.

Btw, ricers are not hot rodders.
