Well apparently it is a honda civic.
Apparently the owner is retarded and feels that pouring thousands of dollars into and economy car will make it cool. I found it on the goivana wheels website, among the 100,000 dollar beamers and benzes.

Anything that spins, and anything over 19" on a car is just stupid...

I know a guy in his 40's who has a black pin-striped Lincoln Blackwood with spinners. Brings a smile to my face every time I see it. It's perfect for his personality - he's one of those guys who's always looking for fun.

Just think of the performance gain of those spinners... At about 40 lbs. per rim that helps unsprung weight so much!!!

G U I D O ! ! ! !

Pardon my Aussie ignorance gents.....but I've seen quite a few posts regarding these "G" mobiles. Who makes them and what is all the fuss about?!

Thanks in advance,

Gomez.

why? because the g35 is a big, fat slow luxury car. you put rims like that on those kinds of cars. just proves a point for me.

g35 is not a big fat luxo car, it's a 350z/skyline in sheeps clothing, don't agree with the wheel selection but don't underestimate a g35, it's a very formidable car to the 8, although a bit too pricey for me.

And no where as practical. I can't sit in the back seat of a G35 and be comfortable in the slightest. In the 8 I have plenty of room. :D

Why do people fit such big rims on their cars?
Bigger wheels slow down cars. You get better acceleration with smaller wheels.

yup, the back seat area of the coupe is dismal, guess that's why they needed a 4 door to compensate

Gomez...

The G35 is made by Infinity, which is Nissan's premo brand in the US. The G35 coupe is basically an upscale 350Z. It has 280 hp vs the Z's 287. Oh, yeah and it has back seats. Nice car!! I like them however, they are common as muck!! They start around $35k.

Thanks Irish......I can't say I've ever heard of them, Nissan don't have a premium brand here...

Are these the things that Oprah gave away the other day?
