What Is The Deal With Putting Fancy Rims on Clunkers?
Throughout my travels on the road, I see a variety of other cars. Most cars are normal enough, but some cars bring questions to my mind. The main thought that comes in my mind is why? Why would somebody put fancy expensive rims on a piece of junk car? The rims alone are probably worth more than the car itself. On my latest encounter, an older brown sedan passed me by. It looked to be from the nineteen eighties. The car had numerous dents in the body and on the bumper, missing patches of paint, and other various dings and bumps. But when you look at the tires, you see some shiny golden rims. Does this person think that this makes up for the condition of the rest of the car? Maybe they were some inexpensive rims, but they did not look it. With the money spent on rims, the owner could have gotten a little bodywork and maybe a paint job. The appearance of the car just didn’t seem to match up.
Is this just a fad I have not heard about? I have seen other cars that fall into similar descriptions, all I have to say is that I do not get it. Leave me some comments here, I wouldn’t mind some insight on the subject.
