FAQ: Big Wheels Question.............Will they fit?!

you would have to put bigger springs on the front and rear, not them retarded ass spacers. one of my boys just put 24's on his '05 grand prix. looks nice but he doesn't have the heavy duty tranny. that would be the other thing you would have to do really quick is go to zzp.com or 3800perfromance.com and buy one of their heavy duty trannys for that extra weight.

Will these rims fit a riv?

To use rims that big, do you need a lift kit or what? I don't understand how it's driveable.

Yeah you definitely need a lift kit.


it looks like it would ride like crap and as soon as you took a hard turn the thing would roll over. it also looks hideous.

Black people are funny! At least he painted the gray lip around the car too.

just....Why why WHY!??
i never will understand that...
well...they say...you can never arue about taist.....just FIGHT...
that riv is in spoiled...all the chroom painted...
the only thing on it what maybe can make the car look better is the lips painted car color....but the rims....just....same as makin a ferrari into a monstertruck...?

max on this car could be only 20'' then it would not spoil the car, look and handling

wow that looks like crap. idiot ruined a perfectly good car!

Well, it could be worse - at least the rims match the car. I still don't like this style of custom car but this isn't the worst example of the style.

Come on - My 22's didnt look that bad... But 26's are way to big

Yeah, they did. Sorry but those huge plates look awful. And I also hate the stick-on port holes. I agree with Snowdog, 20's, max on a Riv.

I feel bad about knocking anyone's car though - not that there's anything wrong with his car, underneath all the aftermarket stuff.

That looks horrible why would someone put that on such a beautiful car.

California, see it all the time. He also claims 390 hp

YA, we all know that he is full of shit, 390hp with that and the riv would leave the ground and fly away, lol

I see it in Cinci too, but never on a Riv. Caprices, Crown Vics, Impalas. Really big-bodied 80's and early 90's cars mostly. BTW 390hp IS bullshit.

Why is 390 BS? Ewolfe's making that much.

b/c he also quotes 170mph. i cant verify that a riv is drag limited to less than that, but i KNOW his is.

Assuming he's got all of his mods listed, there's just breathing mods. He lists only K&N intake, flowmaster exhaust. He has a "custom transmission" too, but he lists no Cam, Rockers, IC, any tuning of any kind, no smaller supercharger pulley. Nothing to suggest that he actually gets 390hp out of that ass ugly ruined Riv.

I don't see any pictures of the guy. How do we know what color he is?

390 HP/170 mph seems a bit far-fetched, imo.

ASSUMING makes an ASS out of U and ME..



The owner is mexican or asian maybe?

He does use the "n word" so I hope he is at least halfrican american.

Ok ok, fine, ETHNIC people are funny! Does that work better?

RETARD.

Whatever the color of the driver, I personally don't care much for the color choice of the car!
