With most vehicles, anything over 18" is gonna put the front tires WAY out of camber, unless it's a truck. Then if it's a truck, 20+" rims would be cool if it's slammed, but being a truck, it should NEVER be slammed, and the ONLY way a lifted 4x4 should have rims over 20" is if it has 44+ inch tires and then that gets expensive because who's got money for 44" tires? Not me.....yes, I've thought about this subject quite a bit, because I have too much time on my hands and not enough smart things to think about
As for that Integra....that overkill....gee mom, lets turn on the tv's and stare at the floor and look totally stupid as we smash into the guy in front of us while staring at the floor. [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Just because it is a show car doesn't make it right. It is still retarded. What are you showing? Ego? Stupidity? An ability to burn money? Make someone else money?
A show car should show well. A show car shoud be classy and attempt to appeal to as many people as possible. How stupid do parents need to be to teach their kids that that it is OK to put 'screens in their trunk'.
And above all, a show car should be functional and drivable! That's why so many of us are cruising this board - better car audio is never a waste of money or time - and we won't even get into the health benefits of music therapy.

An screen for the kids in the back is ok. I got 1 last year an have never heard are we there yet again. Granted its an portable and all. But screen in the floor or the dash? Even for show I just don't see the point. What are we showing?

I really don't care for screens, there's a couple screen decks I wouldn't mind having but it's mostly for the processing capabilities included with those decks and not for watching movies, tv etc...
I'll go home and watch movies on a screen that's 30 times the size of one of those in the pics.

IMO screens are ideal for families who go on long road trips. I don't own a screen myself, but I know on long road trips it would be awesome to have a screen in the back seat.
What I see done to the cars above is just ridiculous.. I'm not sure what they are selling, but it sure isn't practicality.

The purpose of the show car is to show the installer's capabilites more than anything. Look, we got a screen in the floor, installed very nice. Look, we got a screen in the dash that's over 20inches. Looks cool eh? Practical? No, but it looks cool.
Screens in the back are indespensible for cars that are on the highway all the time. Kids or adults, movies or video games, it makes the time go by lots faster and you won't hear "Are we there yet" and little Billy won't be whacking little Jenny on the head with his GI Joe anymore.
Stick a screen in the front visor or somewhere where the front passenger can view it, and you have a very nice highway cruiser. You as the driver can sightsee as you drive, check out the girls in the bikinis, that kind of thing, while the wife watches Jerry Springer, and the kids play video games. Boom, three hours goes by, and yup. you're there yet.
A rear screen, like in the trunk or swinging down from the roof in a van... Usefull, not really. But I could put one to use, I park my van out at the lake for our annual Canada Day long weekend party and we use my system for tunes all weekend. Be cool to have a screen in the back and we could listen to concert DVD's and the like. Or play Pac-Man by the campfire... ehehee...
As for one viewable from the driver's seat, it'd be neat to have, so that the lad & I could play Halo2 in the van out in the parking lot or something...
*ring ring*
"Hello?"
"Hi Rae, how are you? What you guys up to tonight?"
"Oh, Piper & I are playing poker on the internet. But Chayse and Bob are out in the van blowing each other up."
"What?"
"They like it loud!"
