Thanks for recommending me this right after I bought some

[GamersOfTwoMinds]

Messaged these guys for advice when I was looking at my first set of wheels and they were more than happy to help and offered great advice with data to back it up, thank you guys for you help keep up the great videos

As much as I like this guy he really reaaaally reminds me of Jimmy from GTA 😂

My dad and I were talking about tires earlier, weird timing on this video lol I never used to be into cars until I recently bought my latest car. Now I’m diving in and learning everything I can, and my dad is happy cause I never used to be into cars.
Thanks for helping me in my journey! I’m a new subscriber, but I’m enjoying the videos and information presented. Good content and not boring

By far one of the easiest to understand videos on wheel and tire fitment. Well done!

Three important things to note with offset that both caught me out:
1. If you're putting in thicker brake calipers, measure to make sure they don't collide with the spokes - if they do, you'll need a spacer which in turn will require you to adjust your offset by that amount to keep the wheels in the desired lateral position
2. Check whether the wheels valve stems sit in front of or behind the spokes - on my wheels they sat behind the spokes and collided with the bigger brake caliper before I put the spacer in
3. Check your stock offsets, they might be different on each axel - on mine the rears were +16 whilst the fronts were 0 - it's less than ideal but this mistake kind of worked in my favour after discovering 2 - I put a 16mm spacer on the fronts for the bigger brakes (which I didn't have for the rears) which means that both fronts and rears stick out 16mm more than they should. If I'd had the correct offset on the rears, the fronts would have stuck out more than the rears - because I didn't, the wheels are at least in line, albeit 16mm out from where they should be.

I’ll need to watch this video at least ten times to fully get it!

I'm here after buying my wheels and tires

[just_a_picdude]

I have a truck that I'm building into a widebody racetruck and I'm gonna have 19x9 -42 in the front with some 255/35 19s and in the rear I'm gonna have 19x11 -67 with 295/35 19s. It's gonna be a monster and it's gonna look sick as hell!

[micrograham]

The part I have a hard time with is trying to make sure that the overall diameter of the wheel and tire are the same. I want to keep the stock overall diameter that way my speedometer reads correctly

[randlewilliams]

Love this guy, current, y looking at wheels and he has answered two of my questions straight of the bat.

[grandgt]

I really like the one on the top far left. It does seem like there is almost an endless amount of rims and i made the mistake purchasing a chrome set years ago that (unknown to me) was considered a "show rim" and once driven at normal highway speed it would flex like crazy made for a horrible experience going on a road trip and after 10 hours would blow up tires. I really want a new set just have to make sure i check and do my research this time

[expiredkermit]

ohhh okay this helps, thanks! i have decided that i will just stick with my stock wheels

[williamangel]

Damn how am I just now discovering this channel... I've watched the latest video ( this one at the time of this comment) and like 6 older videos.. you guys have killer content, keep the good content coming... You have a new subscriber and notificatiom bell squad member!!

[spencerrocks]

The best explanation without and hidden fees, thanks Dude, I got mines 18x9 enkie with 245/40/18 kumho semi slick tires

[Natuek]

Glad that they suggested coilovers before new wheels.

[alexanderrotar]

One of the cleanest FRS's I've ever seen Gels! I love the hints of aero and how it stays true to what it was meant to be. Great job dude.

[vballwise]

I finally ordered a set of Enkei TS-5 18x9.5 +38 and your prices were cheaper by $200 for a set than anywhere else! The service rep helping me even reached out to Enkei themselves to verify fitment for my 2017 STI

[L-Noble.YT_Hi.Res-Soundminds]

I got a set of forged on one car and a flow formed on another. The forged may be stronger but dont be fooled the flow formed are just as light in weight. It also depends if they are from a quality brand, which will be more expensive. In conclusion high end flow formed wheels like advan racing are super light.

I bought some Variis wheels for my G35 been loving them so far. Haven't heard much about them though
