Besides, spinners may look too "pimp" on an xB... and I don't mean pimp in a good way. :wink:

have you guys seen many XBs with spinners?

obz
02-04-2004, 03:41 PM
Not on an xB no. But I've seen them on Audi's, Jetta's, and even a set on a Mini, and I'm not sure that I've seen ANY that look good on a CAR. An SUV, that's a different story, but not on a car that comes stock with 15" rims. Spinners need to be at least 20's to look good IMO. Just a thought.

yea, im getting fenderflares so 20s will fit. if i get 20s, then would it be ok?

If you get 20's I bet that'd look pretty sick. I think 20's on a Scion would be a first if I'm not mistaken... maybe not, but I haven't heard of any.

There are a few xB's riding around on 20's already. There are a few post on here with pictures.

Spinners look stupid and ___ at the same time on any car....you should paint them pink so then people will then come to the conclusion that you are ___ for buying them

Yea, spinners are gaudy. Everytime I see a vehicle with them, I can't help buy think about how stupid the owner is.

i want to get the 18 dub bellagios....i like rims that have like a lot of surface to them...and 18s are a lot cheaper and look sick with low pro tires.

Spinners...huh..they are so yesterday...I also laugh at them..

Hey did anyone go to the LA AUTO SHOW? there was a new wheel called the FLOATER. The concept is opposite from the spinner. The wheel itself is a solid chrome dome (kinda like the classic chevys). Then there is spinner like mount on top of it, but it seems to have a weight so they do not spin. So u will be rollin and your wheels seems like it does not spin.. I should of came up with the idea :x
Not for me, but for the profits...hehe :wink:

I remember seeing some show that had a rep at SEMA, and there was a 28" rim with Ben Franklin just like the C-Note in the center. The wheel was spoked behind ( you could only see about an inch around the non-moving center) and the set up was rolling, but the center was sitting still. Looked tight as all hell.

IMO, spinners are only for the big guys, Caddys, Lincs, and burbs, that and they are a West Coast thing, not very popular around these parts. But ... if thats what floats your boat, then go for it.

I'm thinking about gettin some 17" spinners but I'm not sure now from the feedback of yall... Are they that heavy that it will affect the performance of the XB? I really like spinning rims and would like to have some on my RS 1 while I'm young. By the way, these are the ones I'm thinking about...

JUST SAY NO TO SPINNERS. BUT,....on the other hand, if i was rockin the stock hubcaps I would definately switch those out for some spinner hubcaps. I saw one with them by my house and they actually work! and have the same effect!

the only rims i like right now happen to be spinners...but im thinking about making a rubber stopper to stick in one of the holes..so its not always a spinner

If you have enough coin to throw at some spinnies and then turn around and buy something else in a few months when you get sick of them, go for it.

Spinners seem like bumper stickers to me; No matter how clever they are, they get tired fast. :| Again though, if ya got the dough to buy 2 times, I say it's worth it.
