Just noticed as I walked past this VW that it has Mercedes rims. Who knew they were the same bolt pattern?

1970's vans are getting more attention and driven more often

the first two things that caught my eyes were the rims and Thrush side pipes

I've posted a couple in the past that these guys haven't posted... but I don't have time to search 6 years of archives to find them. They are probably in http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/search/label/rims if you want to look around

interesting and nice look for rims, subtle, but colorful

the Bead Bazooka, a new way to get that damn tire to pop onto the rim. Yup, I've had some that weren't co-operative

stop the madness, don't put ridiculous rims on Bentleys

Will you see any of these rims on a car, ever? I doubt it. But they keep designing, making, and painting new ones. Some drug burnout with a color blind condition will be talked into buying them maybe...

 To find a Torino and a Cougar is unusual, to find them in racing form, challenging the Optima Battery invitational is amazing

good choice of rim 

Splattering your sponsor advertising all over your car is common, getting it on the rim in a clever way is cool!

that was a damn good idea on someones part
