What gets me is the utter POS cars with cracked windshields, bumpers falling off, rust holes, bondo, no side mirrors... sporting a big-ass shiny pair of wheels.

For a set of $20,000 rims/tires, the payments would be pretty high at 25%

(I think) The majority of the ones I see are knockoffs if that's possible? There was a pallet of these for sale at an auto auction, mostly mis-matched but they appeared to be made in china cheap things.
