The Donk
Violation: Obscenely large and patently unsafe wheels and tires
The cause: Like saggy pants, and ball caps with the tags still on them, the superlarge wheels on a donk have their cultural origins in shoplifted merch. Thats right, theyre supposed to look stolen. The theory is, when youre swiping stuff, you cant be picky on the size because time is of the essence (super small wheels on lowriders fit the bill too). Inner-city gangsters got the tire rolling, but like many subculture movements before it, donk wheels quickly gained steam in suburbia.
The cure: The mechanical systems of even modern cars are incapable of coping with the inertial juggernaut of supersized wheels (anything over 22 inches). The larger the wheel, the worse the physics nightmare becomes. Excessive rotating inertia makes panic stopping unsafe or impossible, and overall unsprung weight makes handling sluggish and incompliant. Ride quality is also severely impacted as the spring and shock package is overwhelmed by the sheer mass of the wheel and tire. No joke: Downsize your wheels, or risk injury.
