One of the most imbecilic and really common mods is the one where lowriders put little tiny wheels on their rides. Without regearing the differential.

Results in the engine overrevving at freeway speeds, and premature engine failure.
Also alters the unsprung weight and buggers the steering geometry.
Close second is the guys who put extreme lift kits on their pickups and SUVs without repositioning the diffs to be inline with the driveshafts. They get to drop their driveshafts whilst driving down the road, maybe doing a polevault if the driveshaft falls front-end first and grabs asphalt. -

The only one I recognized was the Airport or Lodge car. It's the wannabee limo with multiple doors. That way one car would be able to make a circuit and drop people off. It was the forerunner of the vans used here in the USA. The one shown is a EU car of some sort, I think Italian.
