(slapping knees)
- I really love this time of year.
The sun sets a little bit later.
Days getting a little bit warmer every now and then.
We keep jumping from 50 to 20 degrees,
and it's really throwing me off.
I can see grass again.
And we all just got those tax returns,
and we're on top of the fricking world for a little bit.
(exploding)
I mean, we could be responsible adults
and pay off things like student loans.
Maybe go off on a nice little vacation, take a little break,
get some sanity back, or maybe pay off some debts,
but that's so fun.
That's, hell no!
We are buying car parts, baby,
'cause that's what I'm doing,
because that is the fun part.
Spending money is really the only thing
getting me through the rest of this cold weather,
I'm telling you.
But since I know I'm shopping around
for some new car parts right now,
I figured I can't be the only one, right?
(slapping knees)
Help me out here.
Aftermarket wheels are a great way to change up your car
for the next show or track season.
So we thought, what a better time to just compile a list
of some of the top five wheels
you can go and get for under $1,400.
So let's get into it.
(upbeat music)
Real quick though.
I know, right?
We all procrastinate.
Maybe you've been slacking.
Haven't filed those tax returns yet.
You got that 1099 from all the crypto you sold last year.
You just don't really want to deal with it yet,
'cause it's a little scary.
It's fine.
We got your back.
'Cause if you're wanting to pick up some new wheels
and tires and maybe some suspension,
Uncle Sam hasn't cut that check for you yet,
you can go buy it right now and pay it off later
with some financing options through things like Affirm,
which you can select at checkout
over at fitmentindustries.com.
All right, I'm done rambling.
Let's get into the list.
Wheel number one of the list is the Enkei NT03M.
The wheel that really gets constantly overshadowed
by the RPF1.
The NT03 is yet another fantastic wheel choice from Enkei.
It's a multi spoke design with the addition
of that little outer hoop through the spokes.
It provides such a unique design to these wheels,
and it works for a ton of vehicles,
from your WRXs to your FRSs
to literally anything you want put it on,
Civics, you name it.
Taking everything that makes the RPF1
such a sought after wheel
and throwing it into a different design.
So you can avoid all those comments on your Instagram
on your new wheels that are like, oh my God,
another guy who went with RPF1s, how classic.
Now you can just tell 'em to shut up
'cause you didn't go with RPF1s.
You went with NTO3s, all right?
Great fitment options for popular year makes and models.
18 by nine and a half plus 40.
Fantastic choice for the FRS.
They come with some pretty cool finishes as well.
They got a silver,
they got a dark chrome kind of looking thing.
They got blues, they got pinks.
I think they even got green in there.
And the best part about it,
they got some really satisfying center caps.
You get the wheels and you go and install the center caps.
It's like five bolts for each wheel.
It's nice aluminum.
It's milled.
It's machined.
Looks really nice.
It's really satisfying, but I love the NTO3.
And I think it's a great wheel for the list,
especially because most sizes do come under $1,500.
Wheel number two, of course, our very own Anovia Elder.
All right, this was launched in 2020.
It was our very own design.
It's our very own wheel brand.
They're incredibly lightweight,
thanks to the art form technology
that we use to manufacture them.
It's a flow forming process to make sure
that the barrel is essentially forged.
It keeps the weight down, keeps 'em strong.
It's also deco directional.
So in the past,
direction wheels just weren't done the right way.
This time, with us,
you get a left and a right side to the wheels.
Something that was really only done before
in a forge option which typically costs upwards of
three, four, $5,000.
Of course, when we're making our wheels,
we wanna make sure that they fit
popular year makes and models,
popular cars that you guys are running.
So we provided some perfect fitment options
for cars like the 370Z, the G35, G37,
specifically with our 19 by 11.
Of course we have other sizes too,
like 18 by nine and a half, 10 and a half,
with popular offsets like plus 22, plus 35,
and all sorts of good stuff.
But at the same time, maintaining some big brake clearance
and maximized concavity for each size.
A lot of times you'll get the same concavity
out of a nine and a half that you do a 10 and a half.
And this is just not the case with our wheels.
'Cause we made specific molds and stuff for each size.
You get the maximum concavity, 19 by 11,
topping off with five and a half inches
concavity on that bad boy.
Wheel number three, new for 2022, the Kansei ASTRO.
Now this is a classic take on some nineties wheel designs.
Kansei does an incredible job at doing that.
Taking some older school designs
and putting a new twist on it.
They come in this crazy white finish.
I'm literally looking it on the wheel wall over there.
I absolutely love it.
It does have some red undertones to it,
but it really, really pops.
It's an incredible gloss white finish.
Popular 18 inch sizes is what they launched
this wheel in for 2022.
But if I know Kansei, they'll probably be expanding that
in the near future.
And we were talking about concavity before with the Elder,
the same thing with the Kansei ASTRO.
The 18 by 10 and a half,
absolutely insane amount of concavity on that wheel.
They do an incredible job with doing that
wheels like they're tandem.
And they brought that over to the ASTRO
with the amount of concavity that they can get.
Moving on to wheel number four,
one of a classic one that really seems to
really hit all the lists, which is the Konig Hypergram.
Lightweight and strong.
Konig uses that flow forming technology to make sure that
they maximize strength and reduce as much weight
as possible with a lot of their wheels designs that they do.
And the Hypergram is really one that does that
really, really well.
Konig has been a trusted name
in the aftermarket wheel industry for years.
All right, they do a lot of good stuff,
and they got a lot of killer designs
from the Ampliform, their Dekagram,
and of course, their Hypergram.
Large amount of size options for this wheel.
You're still looking at 15, 16, 17s, and 18s,
you can get everything pretty much all across the board.
So if you got a Miata, you can get some Hypergrams.
You got a FRS, you can get some Hypergrams.
They got it all.
And to close out the list is one
kind of a little bit of a throwback as well.
One that's been around for a while,
but still looks absolutely killer.
Of course, it's the fifteen52 Tarmac.
Yes, this is the big five spoke wheel.
The iconic five spoke style from fifteen52
that's been doing really, really well
on things like hot hatches and stuff for a long time.
Coming in at 17 and 18 inch option.
Popular sizes, 17 and 18, is just what a lot of these cars
are going with nowadays.
17s for more of track oriented style,
and 18s for more show purposes.
The best thing about this wheel too,
is that they didn't forget about the Ford crowd.
They're the wheel to go with when it comes to wheels
for your Ford Focus,
and they didn't even forget the Ford Fiesta.
They got four by 108, they got five by 108,
they got five by 100.
So you can get your Subarus, you can get your Fiestas,
you can get your Focuses, all on a set of Tarmacs.
And they look really, really good.
Something about that big, chunky five spoke design
that I really love.
What's up, dude?
(static crackling)
- They just raised the prices of fifteen52s 14%.
That's happening on March 1st.
Just got the news.
(static crackling)
- Guys, I've just got the worst news.
I don't know if you just saw that,
but I worked really hard on this script
and Dakota just comes over here and tells me,
hey, you know, fifteen52 raised their prices by 15%
on March 1st.
That's probably I, when does this video come out?
Two days from then?
Before then?
I don't know.
If you're seeing this video in time,
go get some fifteen52 Tarmacs 'cause they made the list.
But I, not, not for long.
You go check 'em out at fitmentindustries.com.
(laughing)
That's the worst news I've heard all week.
Good thing it's Monday.
