Or bigger.

No 22's would be nice.

I know.. it might take over the #1 ugliest OE wheel.. currently #1 is..

Nah, even though they are ugly, they don't look like rims a ricer Honda Civic would have.

Phobos are ugly. Not entirely despicable, but not pleasing either. The new chrome wheels on the '06 XC90 look nice. Very shiny too.

I always liked the idea of putting 24' Asanti 3 piece Gators on an XC90.

24" wheels? Those are reserved for Hummers only. Maybe Escalades. But on an XC90...I'm not so sure...

Heh, I guess I should have explained it a bit more clear. I meant that the new XC90 rims aren't as ugly as the Phobos. Those Phobos rims look like they go on a ricer.

They look like they came off of a '92 Civic Hatchback. Of course the XC90 rims look better. They should look better as the '05/'06 are the newer models. Times they are a-changin' and the rim designs are as well.

Don't be so quick to second quess me. My automobile customization taste has won hundreds of trophies. What is the number of awards given to your S80?

Trophies? Is that an accurate, let alone substantiated, exemplification of worthiness? Or power? Or pride? I was not second guessing you, just stating my own opinion regarding 24" wheels on an XC90. I did not know that freedom of opinion was restricted on this forum. And, yes, my S80 has won some awards.

Worthiness? Yup. I'd like to witness a loser going home with a trophy while the winner walks away empty handed.
Power? If you're talking about cars, which we are, then yes if you're talking about a dyno competition or dB drag.
Pride? If you couldn't make the connection between victory and pride I'd be surprised. Regardless of that capability, yes.

I did not know that freedom of opinion was restricted on this forum.

I guess you haven't been around long enough to witness a moderator editing a post or see the word filter in use. Log yourself out an check what forums you are able to view. Since you're not regestered, what opinion you have about Member Anouncements or OT discussions are restricted as you can't view the threads, let alone freely express your opinion. You must first meet a requirement before you're given that privilage. Also, do check the OT sub-forum and take note of the stickies. There are a number of users who are either banned or suspended at some point or another. Don't equate an internet forum with a soap box because if it's of any quality at all it's not going to be fully open to all opinions at all times.

I would like to also ask you, in what way, exactly, was your opinion restricted? You're post is still there. So, how do you come to feel that my disagreement, second to yours, has anything to do with having your opinion restricted?

And, yes, my S80 has won some awards.

Really? Which ones? Would you mind telling me where I can compete against your stock S80 with my stock S60?

[dragon17]

Wow. You really do exert yourself over something as pointless as this. To refute your aforementioned point, my S80 is far from stock. What you see on my cardomain page is merely the surface. However, all I stated was that 24" wheels on an XC90, *in my opinion,* would not look too attractive. Last I remembered, everyone was entitled to their own opinion, regardless of your agreement with that opinion. However, you did not need to harshly reply that "I was quick to second guess." Such comments are entirely unnecessary. Thus, you wrongfully assumed that I was making a personal attack and entirely misunderstood my purpose.

My wink and smiley face was too harsh for you?

It may be that we both misunderstood each other. No need for further argument.
