A situation or state of mind in which things are getting out of control or quickly spiraling into chaos. Picture a bus or semi-trailer truck driving at high speeds with its wheels coming off.

Dad Wheels 

Cheap & typically factory sized aftermarket wheels that people install on their truck because they don't want to pay for larger tires, or spend the money for something nice. Usually observed in worn shape with cheap powder coat chipping off, or ugly finishes & styles.
George bought some 18" dad wheels because he's a cheap ass!
