Dunno if you know what I am talking about, but they appear to be the new thing in the modding community. The Wheels which essentially look like larger versions of the wheels they use on racing karts. Seem to be prevalent on uber lowered VW lupos and polos.

Sort of like this



So there I was driving home and this chavvy numb nuts comes racing up behind me. He's got these wheels fitted, but the clown has them protruding about 25mm out from the arches. I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO want to be a fly on the wall when the police catch up him about that.

stretched tyres and big offsets, very popular in the dub scene. technically not an mot fail as the tread is in the arches very debatable that one though, however the safety aspect of "stretching" tyres is another battle and is their insurance valid.

Would be a jobsworth policeman who stops him IMO

That a 355 in the background tho? I would be looking at that a bit more than the jumped up go kart

funny

Its called Euro styling and has been the craze for about 12 months at least.. subtle smooth mods took over from chavvy bodykits and the like...

Wont be long until a new mod style takes over... its always the same!

PS: i LOVE the euro look on a car. If done correctly they can look sooooooo good

yeah was gonna say thats the euro look. I thought that went out of fashion about 2 years ago
