probably have to mount the rim halves into the tire and then bolt it together.

:bang:

I assume these are reverse mount..have to put face of the wheel down on the wheels clamps though...that can pucker the old bum...one slip while clamped and game over...

I don't care for the look.

That's called pro-street. It's still a thing.

I like the car, but don't like the wheels.. just my .02 worth.

Maybe it was already pro-street tubbed,then he decided to try the pro-tour look and take the MT wrinkle walls off.

Or he's from Oakland. Lots of cars like that there.:EmoteClueless:

They would need to have at least 28in rims to be considered a true Oakland 'whip' like this one: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Cd66Mx7m6NU/maxresdefault.jpg

PS: I live in Oakland and only have 18's on my '68, so I guess I don't have any street cred.

I thought calling it pro-street was enough of an insult. Now you guys are calling the poor car a donk. Street cred is so overrated . . .

If you want to get any attention with a 69 Camaro, sometimes requires extreme measures. Not my cup of tea, but I think it's nicely done.

I still see cars frequently built like this in Australia, It's not my cup of tea but like everyone said, it's fixable. the dish is one thing, but the over-staggered appearance is what gets to me

I would call that "Pro-Donk", or "Faux-Touring". To me, Pro-Touring is more about performance than bling. That car screams bling and I doubt it would handle or brake well. But to each his own.
