HAHAHHAHA! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: uno7 10-08-2005, 05:59 AM your profile bring up a good point, doesnt DUB have the same qualities as VIP? except IMO DUB have a younger feel to it BEASTXB 10-08-2005, 06:38 AM (Twinky6's) HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! a_dvs_1 10-08-2005, 07:14 PM damn at first i was able to follow this thread, then it turned into a rap video! i have never heard of anyone calling a car "dub" worthy. you can get 20" or bigger rims and put the little "dub" sticker on your car with no one really hating. I have 22" on my suburban and wanna move up to 24". there is a new magazine, maybe not so new to some, call "plush". their moto is that they never feature "stars" cars for the fact they they have other people them and just through endless amounts of money out. They only feature cars done up by individuals and mostly from the east coast. I read the mag to get ideas and maybe change them up some. uno7 10-08-2005, 11:56 PM like myself, its hard for me to say anything outside of an escalade is DUB worthy. like how bout the cars from five axis? yescadog 10-09-2005, 12:42 AM DUB means 20" inch rim. that's it. it doesn't mean interior, paint or anything else. it started from dub magazine, which is an actual publication. uno7 10-09-2005, 06:48 AM but my understanding is that DUB rims were made recently, so what your saying is DUB was a magaznie similar to Vanity Fair? that decided to produce what they publish? Slammed04xb 10-09-2005, 07:35 AM no man u can get 20's in about any style/make you want from just about any company now a days. being "dubbed" only means you have a 20 inch rim or bigger regaurdless of the company that produced it yescadog 10-09-2005, 08:38 AM the term DUB was started as slang....for a 20" wheel. the magazine was published using that slang term and since then it is accepted as a 20" rim. regardless of who makes the rim. and DUB magazine does produce their own wheels...they are called TIS and it stands for twenty inches strong. LuNcHbOx13 10-10-2005, 03:34 AM dub means keepin it real gehtto stlye. donk whip baby trickdaddy dallor stlye im gonna polish my grills then boom boom blastin a banana clip in yer ___ puta mala mama yamebenyamue . has'nt any body notice that xb's look like porta pottys on wheels? yo im high on x-lax and nitrous. oh yeah 4sale two BLACK goats. ones has lost ___ compression .the other is blind and on steroids. he hits me alot. help mmmmmeeeeee he knows judo and wears skecthers. uno7 10-10-2005, 03:40 AM Its all so clear to me now, you know i think i've seen a box decked out like that locally around here, seriusly, all i'm saying is that his graphics are "poo poo" color lol ok so FOR SURE i need a gold grill for my TC to be more 'dub'ish Any one know if those gold spinner sub grills sold at walmart with the motorized spinner feature are seen in any of those rim and dub magazines? or even at those import shows?

Just go with what you like, who cares if it cant be placed into a group, that just makes it even better. Also good luck on finding a light weight 20" wheels ie <20LBs IMO is light weight. Then you got to add in the weight of the tire & I see a set up a good deal heavier then stock.. jaimecosio 10-10-2005, 04:48 AM dub - DoUBle digits rims sizes 20 or bigger tCrew_R 10-10-2005, 05:09 AM uno7..do u have a pic of ur tc.. i am interested in seeing it..

Rich my pic's in my signature as a link, we had a hell of a time fitting the rims on but i had this benz/bmw/exotic car shop do it, the owners of the place bought two xb's, of which they hammers, grinded and squeezed in a set of 22's and 24's on them so i figured if anyone could mount my rims, it would be these guys (the xb's have since been sold) the shop was a pricy as hell, i admit that. But the car looks sick IMO, rides like crap, but the looks pple make when they see it!!! priceless :bow: :bow: :bow: im having problems entering it into the scion life registery. every time i click to add to registery, it loggs me out *grr* tCrew_R 10-10-2005, 06:41 AM that looks photo chopped..

It is the epitome of tasteless, classless, and clueless. Pimp on rap stars, pimp on. Forget about investing or saving your money. Get some Dubs n get crunk wit it. But to answer your question, like everyone else stated, it's having 20" rims or bigger.

Giovanni 10-16-2005, 10:18 PM Wow.....I am shocked that the original origin of the term DUB hasnt been revealed here. So either I am way old or no one who has participated in this thread ever got down back in the day. The term DUB does NOT refer to 20" rims or bigger. It refers to 20" ONLY. This term came about from a slang term for a certain amout of that green leafy Oooweee. Ever heard of a dub sac? As in not a dime but double a dime=dub. Of course double a dime is a 20 sac....so follow me here people 20 sac=dub....20"rim=DUB. djct_watt 10-17-2005, 12:26 AM Yes. . . but words are tricky. Back in the day, the term "bathroom" meant a room in which there was a bath. But now when people ask about the "bathroom," they are more commonly referring to what is SUPPOSED to be called a restroom. I'm sure you're right as to the definition of dub, as it once was. . . but the hiddeous term as it is currently used refers to 20" or larger. . . because you know people who like DUB don't care about consistent grammer and vocabulary. WeeMan 10-17-2005, 08:50 AM yes but bathrooms, or restrooms, are also tricky. In some countries there are more than one pot to poop in, and some stream warm jets of water up the *AHEM*. Plus most areas have more than one restroom, and it is only by luck that you enter the correct one... (he he he) and most people who have DUB just pee on the wall outside the club anyway. uno7 10-20-2005, 06:20 AM So disco lights inside a scion with loud party music, a built bounce standing outside the passenger door and a handsfree urinal afixed to the trunk all the while sitting on 20" DUB's with hydrolics and a plasma TV somewhere? anytakers? j.k uno7 12-16-2005, 08:13 AM ReSuReCtiOn BacK frOm the WWW aBisS kloquewerk 12-16-2005, 08:40 AM worst photoshop i've seen with that lime green tC uno7 12-18-2005, 04:21 PM the real question is what is dub or dub related things, photoshop cafe is another thred Kilo6_one 12-18-2005, 05:05 PM Domestic Urban Bull____........... its people putting 20" rims irregardless of qaulity and style on anything they can get there hands on, ilike older cars that need motor work, but somehow rims are more important to these people. you see it all the time........old beat up blazers, and some crappy fake ___ itallian named rim, these people who do this usually have little or no concept of style. then they run out and get a DUB sticker. its a style that seems to be ruining our car culture, its like a deomsetic version of a ricer........its people who see things on MTV and want to emulate it........

DUB came about when a dyslexic rapper driving on "twenties" ordered a beer. the term has broadened to cover when any person tries to add at least double their car's weight through rims ("niice, he DUBbed that thing wit dem 24s"). additionally, it became a catch all description for anyone "keeping it real", as in real DUmB (hence the missing m). uno7, your pchop is more "messican" than "DUB" (it's that whole virgin mary hood). all you're missing to finish the look is a big ol humpback steer sticker on each door. uno7 12-19-2005, 06:12 AM OMG that is so DUB ^_^ Kilo6_one 12-19-2005, 06:37 AM http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/11/web/659000-659999/659424_152_full.jpg /|\ DUB Dumb Underpowered Bling lol Domestic Urban Bull____ But I like to call them my "Bling Bling 20s" there is always an exception to the rule.........and here it is......

(sorry, im used to owning bagged chevy trucks) uno7 12-20-2005, 04:58 PM correct me if im wrong but one could call it, DUB to the cubed power? or would it be to the square power?

Go back to work making some decals ya lazy bum! elegancexb 12-22-2005, 04:54 PM my opinion about dub its the same as someone said its just a slang word they used for 20" wheels.... but now lots of people call they rides dub cause they are sitting on chrome big wheels added more chrome parts to their ride and have real big stuff on they ride .......... in my opinion smartass has a sick ride .....and most likely on a dub carshow he will be consider a a dub edition box.....love it...... my is not quite there yet but i have a dub emblem on mine..... i have a small xb toy i think made by dub edition and the rims look similar so i added that to it.. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a125/elegancecustomz/DSCN2144.jpg http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a125/elegancecustomz/aqtdwnscion.jpg uno7 12-30-2005, 09:11 AM OMG i just hope in this season of shopping shopping shopping, that the tv is removable from the car O_O hmmm DUB = big ___ wheels, big ___ tv(s), ....big ___ wings to perhaps?!?!?!?! |
