    Default Check out the LOW profile M-Pars

    Look at the pictures in this post for some M88 headers.

    A few pics down you can see some M-parallels, very close to the ground. Looks like the rubber tire is just painted on the rim.

    Reminds me of the movie "Cars" where the protagonist car drives on bare rims.

    looks like some stretched 30's if you ask me. I run 265/35's on the rear of mine, its thin but not rediculous thin...

    i'm serious, it's popular with a lot of the vw's in my city, you end up with really really stretched sidewalls over deeper dish rims.
