Remember when 20s were huge?

[AutoEuphoria]

Saw this today:



It's amazing how small (or normal) those wheels look. Cars must have gotten HUGE in the last 10 or so years! I remember when 20s were gigantic...now they're pretty much standard equipment on a lot of regular cars.

Crazy

yeah, it's funny how trends find their way into the OEM market. I remember when the Dodge Rams first came out with "factory 20's" and every one was like "NNNNOOOOOOO WAY!" It does seem that cars have larger wheel openings/radius' these days to accomidate such large wheel/tire combos

Ford was known for falling short in the wheel department. The F-150's still don't have 20's unless you get an FX4 or Lariat.

I remember that. I was one of the people that were like "NOOOO WAYYYY!!!" My friend Lauren got 20's for her Ford Explorer and everyone thought she was the shit. haha. Those were the good days. If you had 20's and a few sub woofers in the trunk, you were the mother fucking man!

I remember when the first 20's were hitting the market and thinking "WTF? Why would anyone need or want those??"
Now with cars like the ZR1 you pretty much need massive wheels to fit the brakes

4 lug Mustangs all the way up to '93

Yea, and not to depend having a 4 lug on a 'Stang, but we all know every car has it's "cheapened" parts. Some worse or more noticeable than others, but working very closely to many aspects of many vehicles, I get to see the good, bad, and ugly of each car I work on.

Chrysler really pushed the trend over the top when Gilles penned the LX cars to look wrong with anything under 20s. It got them a lot of love in rap videos

I'd like to put 17s on my Ram, but they'd look freaking tiny

[moneypit]

1995 I put 17s on a grand am and they were huge

Those wheels are ugly, but that car looks pretty damn good

Sorry to see the continued use of fake scoops, Camaro included.
