Guys have pushed the envelope way too far these days. I've never seen any car that looks good on 32s, and very few (handful) that look decent on 30s. Any wheel & tire package that requires me to cut my fenders/quarters or use wheel spacers/adapters isn't for me.
I don't like low profile tires for the street, have seen too many damaged rims and tire blow outs. If anyone thinks low profile tires give you better handling I guess Formula 1 hasn't figured that out..
based on what i saw from a quick search a 2010 SS Auto w/ 120k miles is worth 10-13k, no expert if thats accurate or not but lets just assume it is, do the audio upgrades and wheels justify 7-10k???? i dont think so... if you believe mods any value. id argue those specific mods would detract value...
The thing I find the least funny of all with oversized wheels on so many vehicles is being the person in front of them in a panic stop situation.
Several thousand dollars in new wheels invested on stock brakes.
In the past month alone I saw 2 different wrecks involving mid 2000's Impalas on 24 or 26's bumping somebody. While driver error may have been the larger issue, taking away from sufficient braking doesn't help anything.

I'm not a fan of that look.
On newer model cars, I'm all for a larger wheel, just not that big. There's enough space in this car modification world for all of our taste though.

i fixed a car like that once he had taken it to f front end shop and had them installed but they forgot to put the alignment shims back in so i used a tape measurer and washers from a hardware that was open late at night. it was a b*tch to turn but as long as you went straight everything was fine. he was so ticked off at the front end shop he drove off without paying saying i already once i shouldn't have to pay again.. that was the last time i worked for people unless they paid up front or forget it.
