Have you ever seen a Boxster with 20" spinners - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Hmmmm it not "A L@@K" so good to me

Ouch! I had to sheild my eyes from the horror.

Regarding performance: There are two things we know for sure that will make a Boxster slower. Three bags of cement in the trunk, and heavy 20" aftermarket rims. People do funny things to their cars.

I could have gone the rest of my life without seeing those and died happy. Now I know their is some with worse taste then me

At least they aren't hubcap spinners.

LOL I see this one guy near my work that has an Escalade with satelite TV and huge hubcap spinners. Looks really bad.

A salvage title & 20 inch spinners. I can't believe there are 22 bids on it... And you are right - hubcap spinners are as bad as those fake Quattroporte vents that people have been gluing onto their cars lately...

Although, luckily, I have never seen them on a Porsche...

reminds me of this:

Hah! I wondered when the donk pics would show up.

(Donks, for those of you who were until this moment blissfully unaware, are cars with stupidly huge wheels)

Incidentally, as further evidence that fools and money are not meant to be together, there are businesses that rent wheels to people who want to make their cars look stupid - because obviously they can't be expected to save $4K to buy 25" chrome wheels.

One question... WHY?

Buicks come with fake Quattroporte side vents as standard! The amount of ripping off there is simply amazing.

A Boxster with 20 inch spinners will look just as bad as an Escalade with 4 inch wheels (it looks ugly enough as it is already). Yeaaaaa

OMG.. You guys are #%$*^&% hysterical! I had a crappy day at work and NEEDED a good laugh. This thread was absolutely worth it for that alone....

I needed a napkin to wipe the tears of laughter from my eyes.

I wonder if the seller is a member here

would love to see the look on his/her face!!!

Buick is actually not ripping off Maserati. Some older Buicks which predate the Quattroporte came with those vents as well...
