00:00 When I was young and I used to like those micro machines and play with them and push them around.
00:04 Now I can actually get in that toy and drive it.
00:28 Car enthusiast Corey Jones has created a customised Camaro masterpiece with a massive set of rims.
00:34 We got the 32-inch custom-made Forgiato.
00:44 This was the first set in the world of 32-inch Forgiato Blancos.
00:48 I got them painted to match the car and I left a brush in there because they had a brush face.
00:57 I have two 27-inch screens in there.
00:59 I have three speakers running along the door.
01:01 I have an Xbox in there that's hooked up, WiFi.
01:04 I have custom lights that change colour.
01:09 Kind of like every RGB colour that you can think of.
01:13 So whatever I make this move to, that's what colour the lights go to.
01:17 It's just basically a 2016 Camaro with 6th gen with a custom paint job,
01:24 modified suspension for the wheels, custom interior.
01:27 Basically it.
01:28 It's just a fun car and it's just something that a lot of us love to do.
01:41 We get together with the cars on the big wheels and hang out.
01:44 My inspiration for the car was growing up I used to like lowriders.
01:51 I always liked cars.
01:52 I had a passion for cars probably ever since I can remember.
01:56 Once I got older and I bought my first vehicle and
02:03 started making more money I just started doing crazy stuff.
02:08 The 36-year-old from Illinois manages Crusader Customs
02:16 and has been building wacky cars for the last 10 years.
02:19 Monitor inside the door.
02:21 I also got like another little piece cut out that I had my name in.
02:26 But we took that out and decided to make it look like the screen.
02:29 I also, I don't know if y'all can notice, but I don't got no door handles.
02:32 So I got these little buttons in the inside that I push and it pops the door open.
02:38 I changed out the interior of the car.
02:40 Put the two-tone peanut butter ultra leather.
02:43 It's like some of the most expensive leather that you can get.
02:47 Me and CJ have known each other for a long time.
02:51 I remember still CJ when he was even younger when he didn't even have his dreads.
02:56 I helped him with the build.
02:57 We do all the builds together.
02:59 We always have fun.
03:00 I mean you got to have fun in this line of work.
03:03 You can't be always serious.
03:04 The key elements of the car build is that a lot of time and a lot of money.
03:10 A lot of heart went into it.
03:12 The paint is unique as you know it turns so many colors indoors and outdoors.
03:20 Everything was custom.
03:21 We just happened to notice like on the way over just you know like
03:28 I mean how often you see a car with wheels that big right?
03:31 First you're just sort of like "huh?"
03:34 And then you start really getting drawn into it.
03:36 But not everyone loves these 32-inch rims.
03:38 It's more of a personal thing.
03:41 I mean you guys won't believe how much hate I get for the car because it's being a sports car.
03:46 Some people gonna love it.
03:47 Some people gonna hate it.
03:48 But the most important thing is that you love it and that you appreciate what you built.
03:53 Riding with the 32-inch wheels I mean of course it's going to affect the ride.
03:57 You know nothing's going to be the same when you modify something.
03:59 But a lot of people you know look at the car and say "he can't turn when I can do a full u-turn."
04:05 Or "the car is slow when I can get on the highway and do the speed limit."
04:09 Like it still gets up.
04:11 It still goes.
04:12 The money.
04:14 The money I spent that was it was a lot.
04:18 Like I bought the car with it.
04:19 How much did the process cost you?
04:20 Start to finish?
04:22 Honestly I don't keep track of that.
04:24 Like when you're doing something you love like the money really don't matter.
04:29 It's fun man.
04:31 It's fun.
04:32 It's fun.
04:32 When you're out there on the streets and you got a car sitting up like a truck.
04:35 It don't matter how they looking at you.
04:37 You're gonna stand out.
04:38 Like it's so much of the same in the world today.
04:42 Like you gotta stand out and be different.
