Are you serious? OK then... Go to the rim shop and show him these stupid spinner rims, see if the shop will even let you take one out and lay it next to the car. Give it a spin and show him see how dumb it would look. I am OK with the other mods!

Then let him do what he wants -- it's his car. If he wants spinners then let him get spinners, no matter how ridiculous anyone thinks it'll look. If he doesn't like it, he's the one who's out the cash. If he likes it, then, well...it's his car.

i know you got a bunch of posts in your thread about how bad of an idea spinners is but heres my take on them...besides that i think they look bad. the stock 16" rim weights around 21lbs without a tire. a spinner rim is most likely going to weight more. so when you try to accelerate your going to have to push the pedal down further (using more gas) to increase speed. also, haveing a heavier rim will put more stress on the engine which could increase the chances of stuff breaking.

I hate to bust on your friend, but 35 and wants to put spinners on his Vibe????Maybe he'd happier with a Caprice.

So you're 13 and you have a friend that's 35?I'm not seeing what you could possibly have in common to have a real friendship.
