Your one of those guys.

17's were big in 1995. We started running 20's by 1998. So big wheels are not anything new. Most stock trucks run 20's w/most stock cars on 17's.

I do custom suspension for over 15 years, and I get guys that want to run wheels that do look retarded, and I refuse to do the work. As long as the wheels "fit" the wheel opening with the correct size of tires it's all ok, and by todays standards 17" are not big at all.

Everyone has their opinion. I think pro-street is retarded, and a complete waste of a car, and it should be a crime.
