Worst Wheels Ever

Saw these in Austin Texas last week. This guy must be one of the biggest morons in the area. I think he'll end up maiming or killing someone with these

Default Worst Wheels Ever

Saw these in Austin Texas last week. This guy must be one of the biggest morons in the area. I think he'll end up maiming or killing someone with these if he doesn't get pulled over first. Can't see it well but he had some 6" dia spinners on the tips of them.

Serial killer. Thank goodness you didn't run into him on a back road all alone.

Pretty sure I've seen those on I-35 between Austin and San Antonio. They were on an old Lincoln and were practically as wide as the lanes on the highway

I have seen many of these in Houston, I am not sure on the legal side of them, but I have seen many of the cars that have these start to drift in a lane and almost hit a car because of them. They never even noticed it because the wheel sticks out an extra 6-8."

I saw that once here in LA, and it even had an extended tip... I called the police

I am surprised that it's legal...things protruding horizontally outward, way over the width of the car, didn't think that's allowed.

They should be required to have "wide load" sign
