how big does everyone think these rims are. I'm gonna say 22's....and i'm also gonna say that they don't actually spin, he just sat the car on them for a picture...

I defintely think that is a chop. Ughh, why would anyone want to do that is beyond me. The sheer added unsprung weight would slow the hell out of the car. Kind of funny though. In my opinion :badass:

Looks like he just put the wheels in front of the car to make it look like they are on. Not photoshop.

Hahah...that Civic is definitely chopped in some way. Since when did Civics come in a 5 lug bolt pattern? LOL

And that Sunbird is just plain sad. But the 3g in the background is nice :D

Yeah, I don't think it's photochopped. I think the car is somehow jacked up and he just placed the wheels in the wheel wells for the pic.. Look under the car where he is kneeling. Looks like something under the car holding it up..
That's my guess.
Peace out..

Ok, how many of you have actually used Photoshop?

Next, how many of YOU are GOOD at it?

...that's what I thought. Don't go around screaming "Photochop!" on everything that looks different unless you know the intricacies of the program.

I have used Photoshop for quite some time and I can definitely say that that is NOT photoshopped. There are wayyyyy too many details that would have been harder than hell to replicate in Photoshop.

Take, for instance, the reflection of the back wheel on the ground. That would have been very difficult to get as perfect as it is. Also, notice the reflections on the wheels and the surrounding lighting. Another very difficult detail.

On a minor note, I think they look bada$$ on that car... I would love to have 22's on my Accord... save for the enormous performance hit I would take, especially with the added weight of chrome.

Correct.

You can see the light hitting the tread part of the tire.

Those are definetly there for just the pic, ya can tell there only on that side of the car. Just look at the angle th car is sitting. Didn't notice till it was pointed out though. Still looks cool !

Someone should try to get ahold of that guy just to get the whole story, I would be really intrigued to know what the deal is.

unfortunatly people do things like that to cars, so i can beleive that it's real. it looks like the fenders are trimmed and cut up a lot, and it's obviously a show car so the performance wasn't a concern. but that guy should still get his ass kicked. all the money that he wasted on that car could have been going towards making mine fast.

i don't even know what to say about that second thing. jesus.

Those are 20 inch Enkei Milano's and they are just sitting in front of the car. 20's have been put on civics before but those ones are not really on there.

there is no way that the civic could turn .....those wheels take up the whole wheel well and they look wide....
it sure does look cool though....makes it look shorter than it already is..

okay guys that pic was just a joke. look at it. is it really that hard to see??? the car is tilted back meaning he has normal sized tires on the other side. the front tire is right against the wheel well.


P.S. look at the bling on this neck.
