Butler Tire Shows off my favorite aftermarket wheels... on a Hummer.

The guys at Butler Tire released photos of a Hummer H2 wearing my favorite, favorite aftermarket wheels: The Asanti AF 143 Wheels. The same wheels that look like a flower and I often refer to them as girly wheels.





To be honest, I was so busy looking at the wheels, I forgot to look at the vehicle.

MC Customs Shows off Victor Martinez's H2...

I admit, I had to google Victor Martinez because if his boss doesn't have the last name of Steinbrenner, then I could care less. Well, apparently he is the Detroit Tigers designated hitter, and he took his Hummer to MC Customs in Miami to see what they could do to it. Following my favorite color scheme in the entire world (Black, White, and Chrome), they completed it with almost a job well done. Check out the photos to see why I said what I said.

I really do hate body kits on vehicles larger than a midsize car. I think it looks dumb as all hell. Aside from that horrible kit, this is honestly one of the best looking fully customized H2s I've ever seen. I love the scenery of the shoot, just that damn body kit ruined it for me. Again, this is personal preference...

Pardon my mouth, I just don't like body kits on bigger vehicles.

Hummer H2 Spotted

We spotted the Hummer H2, a big boy from General Motors under the Hummer brand. The Big B debuted in 2003 and was built under contract by General Motors and AM General (FYI: AM General is an American heavy vehicle manufacturer), in order to offer something more exotic than the H1 that was designed for military use. 

Good things come in small packages, that's exactly why the H2 is just as amazing as the Hummer H1 (even though it is smaller!). The H2 stands out in the off-road crowd like a heavyweight champion because of its size and U.S. Military Humvee-inspired styling. This is the ultimate selection for an SUV - don't underestimate it!

The Hummer H2's 6199cc, V8 diesel engine can easily punch out 393 bhp at 5700 rpm. Want more figures? He can pump torque of 563 Nm at 4300 rpm.

GOOD NEWS: In the standard model, leather can be found on the upholstery and also on the steering wheel, which features radio controls (groovy, right?)! You'll find 8-way front seats, which are heated just as the back seats. If you like music, you'll be happy to know that the standard model has a premium sound system with a 6-disc changer and rear radio controls. The standard H2 also features air conditioning with tri-zone climate controls, cruise control, memory system, outside-temperature indicator and a compass (great if you're the kind who easily gets lost). The 2008-2009 model also boasts a remote engine start!

What's on the menu for optionals you ask? A tasteful power sunroof, adjustable rear suspension, rear view camera, DVD entertainment system, navigation system, and universal garage door opener.

So who really stands a chance at locking horns with this Big Boy? The Land Rover Discovery or the Volvo XC90 are the only ones that would deserve the slot

BAD NEWS: The Hummer H2 offers poor practicality and fuel economy. But let's just cover that up with 

BETTER NEWS: Unmatched off-road capability and amazing styling!
