I like the "stance" on my car, It's sits pretty level and is lower than it was stock.... Granted I'm only rolling 20's but some considor them "big wheels" Hell I've been told my cars a donk on here before without me even posting pics of it before just because it has 20's....

Anyhow here's a couple pics... Don't look like a "donk" to me

I don't care for wheels bigger than 18s on G-bodies, but those 20s look good on it and the stance is killer. Can't wait to see whats next

Not at all. Just thought that looked shitty personally, and I voiced my opinion and question... I think lift kits are meant for trucks... Again, just an opinion, I'm not out to start an argument.

Not into big wheels at all, but some of them do look good if they tuck like 78monte's ride and have a clean paint job.

I live just outside of the Atlanta metro area and have been to several big wheel car shows. Crappy paint, crappy body work, and the same goes for the interior. The overall quality is substandard. They are concerned with the way their car looks (in their case their wheels) instead of the car it self, and being that this car culture is still fairly new people are still trying to go for the shock or aww factor. These are some of the same issues lowriding dealt with in the early 90s. In a few yrs most will move on the the next newest thing and the true riders will work towards having clean cars with proportionate sized wheels.

This culture isn't new. It's new to the you as it just hit the mainstream at the being of the millenium, but it had been going on in my social environment. I don't know what car shows you've been to, but I know in ATL for a fact, at the DUB car show a lot of the show cars there are actual cars that you'll see on street on in given day (especially Sunday). If it's truly a show car, there's nothing substandard about it. In ATL, everything has to be done A-1 for you car to even be known in the street, let alone the car show circuit. This isn't the next big thing to us, maybe to you. We grew up putting rims on cars with big motors, updating the interior, and getting some of the wettest paint they sell. There are some ugly one out there, but they're usually just works in progress, like mine. You gotta start somewhere.

Stop going to those side of the road, backwoods, half-a## car shows. Don't make me post pics of just some of the ATL's street cars.

First off the DUB show isn't just vehicles from Atlanta, and its not gonna let just any beater in. For the most part cars that compete at the DUB car shows and are from different city/states as it as the show is put on from coast to coast. If you reread my post I state nothing about show quality cars. I should have been a little more specific by saying the majority of the cars that were on display at the shows I went to were poorly done. Cars with no body work done, have a ton of bondo, or poorly done conversions with "wet paint" over it. It is one thing to have a car that is under construction vs cutting corners.

You can't speak for everyone, not even the majority that is into big wheels on cars to say that it isn't just a fad (to them). I have been around several car cultures since the early 90s so I know a thing or two about cars, and the only thing that changes are styles and people, but the same growing pains always appear. As for those (quote)side of the road, backwoods, half-a## car shows(un-quote) are in the city limits of Atlanta then I don't think I have been to any of the shows you just mentioned.

I have nothing to gain or loose about lying about what I saw because I respect the quality of work that goes into a nice vehicle no matter what the genre.

I am specifically referring to the cars in the ATL DUB show that ARE from ATL. They are show-caliber, street cars that you could see on 85 any day of the week, usually Sundays. I'll admit that there are some half-a##ed ones out there, usually they just don't have the funds yet, but that's true about anything in life. Everybody can't afford to have and/or be the best. And I can speak for anyone who was raised in my environment that know's that our style isn't just a fad. It may fall out of the mainstream someday, but it'll still be going on where I came up at as always.
