Ugliest Stock Wheels

Ok... so this is pretty much a pointless thread, but as I was sitting in traffic for an hour this morning I looked over at a Lexus SC430 and everytime I see that car, the wheels just don't do that thing any justice... They are hideous... I started thinking if anyone else has given it any thought when they saw a nice car with awful stock rims... the Lex and the Bimmer 323 stock wheels jumped to mind... Oh well

I think the car as a whole is not that appealing to me. looks like the person is stuck in a bubble.

Not that I hate them, but everytime I see a TL I think the stock rims could have looked so much better. The appearance of the car is rather impressive but the wheels look too bland. Same thing with the old TL.

Wheels like these, or any variation of this theme, in any color, ARE JACKED! I especially hate the white 'wagon-wheel' looking POS that bolted up to almost anything that moved in the 80s...

Well I had a set of those style wheels in black on my old truck. I don't think they look bad at all.

My buddy was all excited when his parents bought an A4 but when it came in it had these rims... what are they 12's? I have to give it to the Mercedes shown above though, I still gag when I see those.

Those ugly white rims have a purpose. My buddy is heavily into 4 wheeling and he has those on his 4X4. When I asked him about those ugly cracker Jack rims he told me he does a lot of rock crawling and his wheels get all scrached up and bent. His first point was that you can fix a bent rim with a hammer in the field and when they get too bad they only cost $30.00 to replace
