People are idoits. My Ram service truck has 20" wheels but it came from the factory that way. I don't believe in modifying a car in any way. I will not buy a car that has any aftermarket equipment of any kind.

I agree, people are idiots, for real, and getting worse every year... Still, why don't you believe in modding a car in any way? If I don't like the paint job, what's wrong with changing it? If the factory stereo sucks, what's wrong with changing it? Also, what kind of Ram "service truck" do you have, for what purpose, and does it have low profile tires?
It's a Dodge Ram 1500 quad cab with a Hemi. It doesn't have low profile tires. I would absolutely never change the paint on a car. Huge red flag. Part of the reason I feel this way is, who did the work, what was wrong that they needed to do the work? If you wanted something else on the car why didn't they get a car that had it to begin with. Contrary to popular belief aftermarket modifications great reduce the value of a car.
I just passed one to these guys this morning.
Looks like the car is on stilts. I just don't understand it.
you'll change guitar pickups and hardware, why not car parts?
In all fairness to the current trendy crowd, I imagine there are a lot of people who wouldn't understand why you dress the way you do, play the music you do, and wear the boots you do...
Cars are different than guitars. I have been involved with racing and selling high end cars for a long time and what seems like an inconsequential modification will destroy the value of the car. If we're talking about some old beater then it's a mute point because it's not worth anything anyway. When I buy a car I check every panel gap the paint on every panel. I get underneath it to inspect it. I check the service book to make sure it has been stamped by an certified service center for that make, and all scheduled service has been performed. I pull the car back in the trunk to check for rust or evidence of body damage. I check everything and if one thing doesn't pass muster I walk. No if ands or buts. I may be over doing it but I've never had an issues with any car I've ever owned.
Oh, so that's your reason... Sure, based on that particular line of thinking, that makes sense for you... By the way, one could argue that only an idiot would buy a Chrysler product... Anyways, for each their own, and if depreciating the value doesn't matter to me, then cool! I would never run huge rims with low profile tires for two reasons... One, because I think it looks goofy, but that is just an aesthetic judgment... Second, because the kind of places I drive would destroy a low profile tire, so I would be an idiot to do that... Oh, my Chevy truck is totally stock, except for the stereo... However, I plan on keeping it until it is worthless, so trade in or resale value is completely irrelevant... *Waits for Chevy jab*
