Default To spin or not to Spin?

I used to work at a custom car accessory shop back home in VA and I once got a set of 18" spinners from Spin-Tek. Now Spin-Tek is not Davin Wheel but it still does the job. Last thing I heard before I moved down here was that spinners didn't come in our bolt pattern, which is 5x100 and if they did us PT owners would have to drop the car a couple of inches to fit 20's on there with spinners. So my question is if you could spin would you? Or why you wouldn't. I would be more than happy to put dubs on my ride but I drive from Orlando, FL to VA and back 4-5 times a year and 20 inch tires aren't cheap and don't ride all that well. So what is your wheel preference?[:X]

No spin for me. I just don't care for them. Too much flash going on there.

I think they look pretty cool but on SUV's the spinners on cars, mini-vans or our pt's just wouldn't look right. But hey its all about what your into its your car [:X]

I agree with most all of the comments. I like them and they are nice on those 22-26 inch monster wheels. I think it comes down to a PERSONAL preference, what makes you stand and stare at your own car. I have never seen any spinners on any wheel smaller then 20s, so good luck if that is your choice.

If I traded my PT in for a 300C, definitely spinners, even though it looks gangsta. That car almost looks like it was made for them.

Sorry I'm a little "old school"...think they look silly, but if you like 'em that's your business...make somebody rich following a temporary style.
