As bad as some of the unrideable show motorcycles are that you see, the cagers are even more extreme. Exhibit A: the Donk fad.

You tryin to say I shouldn't get a lift for the Charger and toss on some 33s?
I think I've also heard it referred to as "Wagon wheeling" or something to that effect.

It's a travesty. "Urban Culture" screwing up perfectly good mid-90's Impala SS's. It's a crime.
I saw one of these cars with 30" rims with CLEAR centers. Wheels probably cost more than my house.

Common sight around here is an $800 car on the side of the road with its hood up, while sporting $2000 worth of rims.

Yo ya'll, you ain' down wit the DONK? I used to think the lowriders with the 13" spoke wheels were bad until the Dubs and Donks hit.

Doesn't the term "Dubs" refer to 20" rims? Twenties are the big thing up there these days, ON TRUCKS. I think the biggest wheels in Helena are on a Chrysler 300 belonging to a Realtor, I think, and it has either 22s or 24s. Looks pretty bada$$, but it's not all jacked up.

I saw a 300 yesterday with those larger low profile wheels. It did look awefully mean and tough with those wheels filling the entire wheel well as it should.

Yeah, those big wheels make stock 300s look anemic by comparison.

Yo Money! Me and da Ho is gonna jump in our Donk n git us some crunk juice! AEEEET! Crappy thugalicous beaters! HAAHA  Remember when Spinners came out? They made those cheap plasic imitations you could buy at Checker. We'll be seing primer covered cars with huge truck tires, block lift and plastic hub caps that extend past the cheapo wheels on to the tire. HAHAA

Well even crack dealers have to spend their money on somthing dont they?
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

Those vehicles remind me of the early/mid eighties fad of putting car bodies on truck frames. I remember seeing quite a few "red necks" driving around with Mustang bodies or Buick bodies stuck way up on mudder tires.

There was a Chevelle here too. Was so high up my friend got busted inspecting it cause a cop looked up under it from his car and saw no catalytic coverters. We have no emissions here but the garage is supposed to look to be sure the parts are there.

I think 22's or so are about as big as you can get with a stock 300/Charger. Next time you see a base Charger (like mine) check out how HIGH profile the tires are, those are 17 inch rims!!! LOTS of room to go up!

I just hope the police crack down on these morons harder than they have been busting the 4x4 community lately. Our lifts are much better engineered then most of this junk I have seen. But this is funny. Big rims+ drag racing- c-clip= funny stuff. no more c clip

Hahaha that was funny! I love how the announcer said "Man that's a pretty wheel, I hope it lays down on the axle, not the wheel." My dad told me a story about when he was in the army, he was following a truck in his jeep and watched one of the rear wheels slowly slide out to the side, kinda like that one did.

I think Montana still has some pretty stringent mudflap laws. I'd love to see one of these cars pulled over by Montana's Finest for no mudflaps...

I must be living a pretty sheltered life, I never heard of these things until this thread.
I guess "low riders" are out.
Hey, we spend money like drunk sailors on our bikes, If a guy wants to do this to his car and can afford it I'm happy for him. Peronally I would not do this, but then that's me.

I'd love to see one of these guys with a sense of humor drop a rope ladder out the door when it opens. That would be sweet.
