This reminds me - I saw spinner wheels in public for the first time in probably 15+ years yesterday. I was genuinely shocked to see them. Man I hope they do not make a comeback.

Spinners are dope! I wouldn't buy them but they are certainly unique and flashy.

Friend of mine got spinners on his cheap ass Toyota a couple years back because they all got ditched after the craze ended

If you know where to look you can get good ones for shockingly cheap, and putting them on old beaters or a Prius is fucking hilarious

At least spinners are good at what they do! The Cybertruck isn't even a good truck.

I had spinner hubcaps on my clapped out 85 Monte Carlo in 2004, it was awesome.

Dude probably grew up around them, and now he's all grown up and can finally afford them. Live and let live. At least it's not a Hummer or a cyber truck
