Rob Dyrdek Car – Flat White Tahoe

Rob Dydrek Flat White Tahoe

Here is Rob Dyrdek’s car – a flat white Tahoe customized by Platinum Motorsport. The rims are 26″ MHT LLC 6. Flat white is one of the coolest things you can do to a car. It looks amazing in person. I like the facts that the 26″ MHT wheels are flat black and give a strong contrast with the rest of the car. The wheels are a nice and simple 6 spoke design. The rear wheel seems to have a decent lip.

Suprisingly 26’s dont look too big on this Tahoe. Nice wheel, nice paint job, and nice fitment.

David Beckham in his Cadillac Escalade ESV

David Beckham Cadillac Escalade Cop Ticket Pulled Over

This is David Beckham getting a ticket from a cop in LA. He is driving a black Cadillac Escalade ESV with 26″ TIS Drop Star rims. The wheel is a 6 spoke design which is good for this 6 lug car, but the spokes are wayyy too thin and look really sporty. The finish is black and machined which is nice.

These rims are really cheap cast wheels with no lips but Im sure he got them for free anyway. Overall, pretty nice ride. The big rims look good on this big ass car.

Bill Goldberg with MOZ Wheels on his Tahoe

Bill Goldberg Tahoe Moz Wheels Celebrity Car WWF

Here is former wrestling star Bill Goldberg posing infront of his MOZ wheels on his 2009 Tahoe. The wheel is called the Shine and the finish is black and chrome.

Two very good things about this setup.

1 – The 6 spoke wheels match the car perfectly since it is a 6 lug. Sometimes you see people drilling 6 holes into a 5 spoke wheel and it completely ruins the design of the wheel.

2- The tires still have some meat on them. Their not like most of the rubber band tires we see with aftermarket rims.  When you drive an SUV like a Tahoe, you dont want to be worried about bending your wheels every second.

They look like their tucking in a little bit in the rear, but not a big deal.

Glenn Dorsey White and Black Mercedes S550

Glenn Dorsey White and Black Mercedes

This is Glenn Dorsey’s two tone Mercedes S 550. It has a “Maybach Paint Job”. The wheels are 22″ Forgiato Fiores that are custom painted black and white just like the car. The windows are tinted and it has a chrome Asanti grill. It was customized by KC Trends in Missouri.

This car looks very unique and looks very good. The only question I have is why would he do this to an S550 when he could have bought a Maybach and avoided all the trouble. He just signed a 5 year, 50+ million contract so I think he could afford the real thing.

Ive actually never seen this done to an S class before, pretty cool.

Mehmet Okur’s Yellow Ferrari

Mehmet Okur might be stuck playing basketball in Utah, but that doesn’t mean he can’t make it as fun as possible. Here he is about to get into his yellow Ferrari F430 staggered on 19″ chrome wheels. The rims are a simple 5 spoke design.

I like the the rims a lot because it makes the yellow Ferrari center cap pop out at you. Most people would go with black rims on a yellow Ferrari, but surprisingly chrome works pretty well too.

I dont even think this car would fit in the narrow streets of his home town Istanbul.

Brandon Rush – Mercedes S550


Here is Indiana Pacer Brandon Rush standing infront of his Mercedes Benz S550. The car is sitting on 22″ Giovannas, all chrome. I dont like the color of the car, but the rims look good. He had his car customized at KC Trends.

This seems like an old picture and Brandon was probbably still playing college ball at Kansas at the time. I am sure he has moved on to a better/newer car with his NBA salary and hope to come across some pictures soon.

Antrel Rolle’s Car – Red Maserati Gran Turismo


I have lost track of how many celebritys have these exact rims on their Maserati Gran Turismos. I have no problem with that because these look awesome on the car. Here is Antrel Rolle with Alex Vega infront of his red Maserati staggered on 22″ Forgiato Capolavaro rims.

The rims are chrome with red windows and red flange. The Auto Firm did another great job in advising their clients to choose a very very nice set of rims.

Ronny Turiaf’s Black Tahoe

After posting Hilfiger’s Range Rover from Platinum Motorsport, this Chevy Tahoe that belongs to Ronny Turiaf just doesnt look as good. The former Laker decided to go with 24″ Agetros on his Tahoe, black face with brushed aluminum windows.

I dont think the black grill does anything for this car. It would probbably look better with a chrome grill and a chrome lip on the wheels. Im not too crazy about this set up.

Clinton Portis – Maserati Gran Turismo

Redskins pro bowl running back Clinton Portis has a bad ass ride. I think the Gran Turismo is by far the best car to come out this year with the GTR being a close second. CP decided to go with 22″ Forgiato Capolavaros on his Maserati.

At first thought 22″ seems big for a sports car like this, but it fits in there very well. The finish is a chrome center with black lip and red pinstripe. All match the car perfectly. Beautiful car, beautiful wheels.

Ryan Howard has a White Escalade

The reigning National League MVP, Ryan Howard has a white Cadillac Escalade on 26″ Chrome Asantis. A big car for a big guy. I am not a big fan of all chrome wheels. But when you go for 26s, all chrome is usually the best choice.

The chrome wheels match the chrome trim, chrome side vents and chrome grille very nicely. The car is all white and chrome and looks pretty good.

My only problem is the car is now sitting too high that he put 26s on it. You need to lower it a little or else it looks really bad with the big gap in the wheel well. Drop this car an inch or two and it will make a world of difference. Lay off the high fastball a little more and that will also make a world of difference.
