HEY! I have those hubcap spinners glued onto my wheels! The guy at the shop said it will get me hot girls, AND all the ricers will bow down cuz of the extra 50bhp per spinner.

Did he lie to me??

You should've busted out your camera phone.

There are a lot of those over here in the Philippines as well... ever heard of a '94 civic hatchback with a rally wing attached to its roof? lol.

I'll try taking pics next time I see a few.

The really horrifying thing about those spinner rims is the fact
that they don't just seem to be confined to just cheap Hondas
and Toyotas, I've seen several luxury SUVs with them on where
I live. I see a white Cadillac Escalade EXT with spinners driving
around all the time, it looks absolutely ugly and it also looks
rather tacky.

Lol...that's pretty bad, but I've seen something that almost matches it...I saw a 1991 Chevy Corsica with spinner hubcaps...on 2 of four wheels (only on one side) and the spinners weren't balanced properly so that they were rubbing and wobbling a bit as they moved. Now THAT is something to puke about hehehe.

There are heaps of Rice here....Its just sad what goes through the minds of ricers....They do small cars up that ain't really got any performance to start with, dump the biggest exhuast and thats it...You see alot of Twin 4 inch exhuast on their Lancer Evo look a likes.
