Greg Myers Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I remember the first Mustang had trouble with hubcap (wheel cover) spinners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bismarck Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I would imagine they would need shin guards to even walk around that thing...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I remember when this was popular. Starting to see them on the road again. Not a style I'm fond of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petetrucker07 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 On the last truck I drove, every and I mean every, nut, bolt head and rivet had spikes on it. It looked really cool, but I wouldn't recommend being the one who cleans it. Take it to the truck wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Creative Explorer Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) Over here in Europe, nothing but mirrors are allowed to be bigger than the car's body, thankfully. Imagine this in our traffic..... Edited December 1, 2015 by The Creative Explorer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scale-Master Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I wonder if it is a south Texas thing? I saw multiple cars with those ridiculous spoke-like thingies around Galveston last time I was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Marischal Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 And those things are actually legal??????steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Just because they can doesn't mean that they should. With the way people drive here in the K.C. Metro area, hard time keeping it between the painted lines, there would be a lot of body damage out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mademan Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 they are modern versions of " Elbows" "84s" "Swangas" "super pokes" if you google it its big with the Slab guys, mostly a southern states thing. Some older, 80s cadillacs look really good with em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
426-Hemi Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 WELLL shin guards would be in order just to drive the thing, BUT this also has a way to keep people from coming to close, while moving, OR parked! Pro's & Con's don't ya know! Just can't imaging my shins after a day of city driving AND parking..... My trucks hitch is bad enough! -Least its on the back not the side, BOTH of them!

58 Impala Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Maybe he sticks them on when he parks to prevent door dings. I hate when people can't park right and you need a can opener to get in your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathgoblin Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 The spikes on the lugs on semis scare me to death. As bad as most of them drive anyway, I'm afraid that I'll be passing one and he'll get a little out of lane and chew the side of my car off.
