    Just got some new dubs

    I've been running HPP wheels on my car for a couple years now and was getting sick of them. So a friend had some torq thrust wheels off his ranger lying around, so I decided to try them out. I like them alot and may buy them. What do you guys think? The tires on the HPP are 225/60/16 and the torq thrusts are 235/70/15. I'd go with 225/70/15 for the front in the future.

                  Not feelin the wheels man, looked better with the HPPs. If you like it, that's all that matters.

                    I don't think they look bad, If they were an inch or 2 bigger would probably look better. Like tjc78 said, do what you like, not what others like

                      i like muscle panthers, so i like it with the new wheels! i would probably change the color of the rims to a ligher color, maybe color match with the car even.

                            Dubs only refers to 20's, as in 20 inch rims. Iphones were made in China, so maybe they take photos upside down for that reason?

                              Saying dubs was a joke. Has anyone tried out plasti-dip on their wheels?
