Alex, you missed all the correct things that happen...
1. Your instagram followers triple
2. The opposite sex will find you more attractive
3. Your friends will be jealous
4. Your enemies will cry
5. You will start looking for some different wheels

When he said “when you drive in front of the mall so everybody sees you before you I felt that

[josephamen]

Driving in front of the mall... that is the realist thing you’ve said my guy 😂😂

[patrickhill]

Cant curb your wheel if you have enough negative camber

[chriskamijo]

Alex: "It's your daddy"
Wonder what else he'll say, besides that weird scream...

[LifeOfWhy]

1) an increased amount on your next credit statement.

If you have many eyes on you, while parking you will scratch them, like if someone hot is watching you, you trip.

[coreynguyen]

so we aint gon be surprised abt that slammed prius with camber in the back 9:20

I bought wheels literally 3 weeks ago from you guys and they still aren’t here come on boys

[justinturner]

Also consider the compatibility of your tpms sensors, and Probably worth mentioning you’ll likely need aftermarket lugs. 👍

[matthewheitzman]

OKAY BUT IN THREE YEARS OF DRIVING I HAVE NEVER CURBED A WHEEL
and OF COURSE as soon as I bought wheels for my car (Bc the previous owner had curved the hell out the stock wheels) I CURBED MY NEW WHEEL 3 DAYS LATER😭😭😭

[AeroDesignsNN]

Good timing! Literally just about to buy my first set of wheels haha thanks for the tips

[alaskajohn]

But at the end of the day, if Alex doesn't absentmindedly say "At the end of the day" and then catch himself after the fact, was it really a worthwhile video?

Folks may want to ask themselves why they want a BBK. It won't make a night and day difference in stopping time, assuming you have decent brakes to begin with, but it will make the stopping distances more consistent. Then there's the bad part - you're adding quite a bit of rotational/unsprung weight. IOW, you're making the car slower and deprecating its handling. Probably not what you had in mind. Instead, upgrade your current braking system. For example, we shed about 20lbs of rotational mass with Baer rotors. We also run a high-performance fluid, lines, and pads. You can do the same and increase the performance envelope with no drawbacks. Good luck.

Expect 1. People will try to take your wheels. 2. A dog u never see keeps peeing on them. 3. You start hiding your car behind the house. 4. Everyone swears your dealing drugs. 5. You will have less money than before.😅👍

5 things to expect after buying a Nissan 240SX

[MotorsandMetal]

Certainly agree with the check your measurements. I have a 2004 Honda Civic Si (EP3 Chassis code) with Spoon 4 piston monobloc calipers in the front, and larger knuckles, hubs, axles, rotors from an RSX Type S in the front.
If you're doing a lot of things like that I advise looking at specs of wheels on the car that parts come from, which shouldn't be much a second thought.
I'm going to update in the gallery, I have maybe 1/2 cm caliper clearance on the face.
EDIT
Wheels are Motegi Traklite 17x8 +40 with a 225/45-17 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.
Car is still slow.

[josephamen]

Also bumps on the road are harder on suspension components (links, struts, etc) if you go lower on your tire

[Interich]

I'm laughing so much, I was very lucky, a friend of mine suggested to go for ET20 straight away.. I don't regret it, I'm glad I did, have space for a brake upgrade that I will be doing soon.. My friend also pointed out the day that I will curb the wheels will be a day I will be sad.. I have my honda accord tourer in silver at you guys gallery and in UK roads can be a bit of a challenge, specially if I don't know the road that I will be driving on.. So far I only had one situation that I thought I couldn't drive through because of being wide, 1cm on each side to pass 😂😂. Good video. My tourer corners so well I've made my mom and partner scream on a turn 😂😂

I'm kind of getting into cars but I realized the more personal customization you do it seems the more you have to worry about.
