Upgrading Mr Van

[Revoltingest]

Since I had to buy one new wheel to replace the lost one, I'm considering replacing more so that I'll have all
nice new shiny aluminum rims. It would cost a little over $1000, but I feel so compelled to put some bling on
Mr Van. (His old steel rims are dirty & a bit rusty.) I don't drive him in salt, so corrosion won't be an issue.

Suggestions?

I keep hearing of this Mr. Van but I have never seen pictures.

I'm going to have to learn how to post pix here.
Number one son will have to educate me on that.
Mr Van is like no van or truck you've ever seen.

At the Coolspring Power Museum June show, I parked next to some
very high end RVs...fancy paint, big, aluminum wheels, new, big, luxurious.
They were inspiring.

Not sure if this helps, but if you have the picture saved you can use the upload a file button:

I don't even have a pic on me computer to upload.
I'm very incapable on these things.

Are Michigan winter roads not bad enough to salt them like bacon?

If you have a smart phone, you can upload from a phone.

Unlike me, my phone is smart.

I'm thinking you need a big gold Mercedes hood ornament and spinners on Mr Van.....

Anything would make it look...well...better

OOOH better idea..... how about this

It could be like your Mr Van Life boat, in case of fire, break down, floods of biblical proportions or bear attacks

Looks very maneuverable.
Mr Van has a short wheelbase, but not that short.

I think that's just most drivers. Or could be why Indiana dumps so much salt on the roads during winter because the worse the roads are the dumber the drivers on them.

That thing looks like its going to flip when making u-turns.

Unfortunately, the phone is only as smart as the user.

Mr Van needs a spoiler and a supercharger.

If Mr Van ain't rockin' rims like these, he's probably some pinko electric van in which case rims don't matter, just the carbon footprint.

Mr Van should look like this

They would both be better painted in a scotch plaid.
