Bleach Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 I'm not seriously entertaining the idea of the business... I didn't think you were. I believe wheel rental is like furniture rental places. You're not really renting as much as you are just making payments on something you can't afford and don't have the credit to buy on credit. :D If you fail to make your payments you can just bring the stuff back. the idea is that after you rent them for a year or two, you own them.

0.C. Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Has anyone driven one of those things? I have built 3 donks, as much as we try to make it handle good, the steering sucks, not to mentiong the 4+ point u-turns. Quote Link to comment
xtrmemtnmn Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Here you go 40" wheels, I have 42" tires on my jeep Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 OMG...Did they just extend the suspension mounts down? WTF?? I hope they never do over 10 mph in that thing... :eek: Quote Link to comment
zhent Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 lol try no profile tires and am i the only one who notices the lack of brake upgrades? I saw that thing in San Antonio in 2007. The tires are just rubber glued to the wheels, no air. They don't actually drive that car, it's show only. It rides on a semi truck from show to show. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 lol try no profile tires and am i the only one who notices the lack of brake upgrades? I don't think they need brake upgrades, not like they're running trans cases an Rockwell axles or anything. I agree, what a piece of shit. Quote Link to comment

bonvo Posted November 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 eh ive always been taught that the general rule of thumb is if your gonna have big rims like that you upgrade the brakes thats alot more weight thats being spun around over a stock 15 Quote Link to comment

1lo620 Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Hit any lowrider show these days and Donks are getting more and more popular...Geez.....I used to get crap fro running !3x7 wire rims when the 15" and 16" rims where stating to get popular....But this.....wow. When you have to raise a car to put rims under it......oh my god....But like I have said..to each there own..But I do like what Bleach says....$500 cars with $1000s of dollars worth of rims. Another thing that I think is a bit out of hands, not pertaining to rims...is.."lets see how many TV monitors we can get in our car!!!!! Real big with the tuner guys...but I see them in all forms fo the custom car show. Oh well.... Quote Link to comment

City Hunter Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 rent n roll homey! they need to chrome out some john deere tractor wheels and rock them. Quote Link to comment
ronnny Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 As light as the wheels and tires look brake up grades may not be nessessary because the big reason for them on 4x4s is the increase in wheel wieght or unsprung wieght. I would add some brake upgrades. What scares me is the lack of steering unless it is hyd. i should see a long drag link or such. Fully hyd is not legal on the road for you need a mechanical link to make it legal. I would think that thing would be up to a 7 point turn to make a u turn in a decent space or 40 acres. Put a set of 10 bolt axles under it and watch the body twist up! Quote Link to comment
