How about half stripped and no centers? I'm rocking that.
My submission. One of the worst wheels of all time, not just because of the design but also the fact that the spokes stick out well beyond the side of the tires!
The TSW Venoms. Normally seen on MkIII Jettas and Dodge Neons.

Like this?

I kinda like these but I agree rhat they're impractical
I think that the tri-bars looked pretty good on the '93 Cobra 'R' model, black/chrome lip and center cap.

You went to braille school with him.
If it's above 19" across and is chrome, we'll just assume they're horrible. There, that took care of 98% of them!

I've been saying that since they came out, almost word for word. A family friend has one and it's so hideous, I can't stand to look at it. Everybody else loves it.
What if you painted an SC430 a nice darker blue, removed the grill, and installed side-pipes. Oh, and installed a set of the modern copies of the Halibrand knock-offs. Maybe put some snake decals on in place of the Lexus badge, pretend it's their take on the Cobra?

The first time I saw one, I said "What the berkeley is that thing?" Bad.

I would KILL for a non staggered set of the 17x9 rears ( a total of 4 of them) for my ms3. I don't care what anyone says.
Yeah those would looks badass on an MS3!
I would settle for 17x8s all around on my FD. Lets go together and buy two sets and split them up! Sets pop up used for around $1000.

You present an interesting proposition. Were finances a little more settled, I'd say game on.

I think we'd all hunt that person down and forcibly remove their keys..... through their butt.
I agree the sc430 wheels do not look great. I cannot agree that the car is bad looking though...at least not slightly modified.
