- Oh my freaking gosh you guys.
2019 is coming to an end,
and what a year it has been.
We had like "The Avengers: Endgame" come out.
We got a picture of a black hole
for the first time,
which is pretty neat.
"Game of Thrones" is officially over,
it's come to an end.
And we have
a new
Supra.
Plus, we had to see like
two different versions of the same
"Sonic the Hedgehog" trailer,
which is pretty neat.
But with 2019 coming to an end,
it's time to start looking forward
onto bigger and better things.
New year, new me.
And more importantly new wheels.
What's goin' on everybody?
My name is Gels from Fitment Industries.
And we are back with another episode
of "The Build Sheet".
We're gonna be going over some new wheels
that are coming out for 2020,
that you might just wanna
keep your eyes on.

When we were at SEMA this year
we got to take a good look
at some of the new stuff
that is gonna be hitting
the market really soon,
or may be already out there on the market.
But we always look forward to going
and seeing what is new,
and when it comes to the wheel game.
And this year did not disappoint.
So one of the first stops when we arrived
was at the Cosmis Racing booth.
And we got to take a look
at the brand new XF-10.
Now the XF-10 is a rotary forged wheel
that is going to be meant
for big brake clearances.
And they designed this wheel
around the Mitsubishi Evo.
Because since it came with Brembo brakes
from the factory, and they need
that additional extra clearance,
it can be a little tricky
to find wheels sometimes for that car.
So Cosmis has taken
that into consideration with the XF-10,
to make the spokes clear everything,
the way that the hub is designed
to pull the wheel away from all of that.
Something that we've actually heard
quite a bit about Cosmis wheels is that,
some people don't necessarily enjoy
all of like the engraving and lettering
that goes around the face of the wheel,
that Cosmis does on a lot of the wheel designs.
But on the XF-10 they have kept
that very minimal.
And the only thing on the actual face
of the wheel is the word Cosmis,
between a couple of the spokes.
We expect this wheel
to come in pretty lightweight.
And it's gonna be a popular choice
among Evo owners, WRX owners
and maybe even some
like newer Civics as well.
As far as the price,
we're going to be looking at a little higher
than what Cosmis offers currently,
just as a ballpark.
But that's just because of the fact
that it is a rotary forged wheel.
And I would say that it's a good chance
that they're probably gonna stay
within that same area of pricing,
probably around $1,100 or $1,200 for a set,
depending on the size of the wheel.
Now we weren't actually given
an exact time for the release
of the XF-10, but we expect
it to be available pretty early in 2020.
Moving on down the list
for new wheels for 2020,
we see our good friends Kansei Wheels.
Now if you've been anywhere near Instagram
in the last few months,
you probably know that Kansei has been
absolutely killing it with their wheel designs.
We saw them launch their Formlite
in two piece forged options, back in 2018.
With designs like the KNP, the Tandem
and the Corsa for their single piece options.
Kansei's done a fantastic job
taking classic inspiration
from the JDM car scene,
and has applied it to their wheel designs
with just a little bit of a modern twist.
So for 2020 we are going to see
a few new wheels from Kansei,
one of them being the Roku.
Now the Roku isn't actually a new design,
but is a design that they've taken
from their two piece lineup
and designed it into their single
piece Formlite lineup.
Now with six spokes and a stepped lip,
we think that the Roku's going to do
really well this year.
And we're gonna see it on a lot of cars
like the 240SX for example,
the FR-S, BRZ, maybe like a IS300,
or maybe like a SC300 as well.
But that's not all for Kansei
because they're just doing an absolute ton.
They decided to really blow up
the old IG a little while ago,
when they decided to release some pictures
of their two piece KNP,
but with a little bit of a twist.
It's a joke, you see what I did there.
The KNP-R is a directional KNP,
that is going to feature
the new Kansei logo
on one of it's five spokes.
Now the KNP is one that you guys
ask about all the time.
That one, the bronze five spoke.
And it looks amazing.
And when we add a little bit
of a twist to it with a polished lip,
it's just like.
(hands slapping together)
Damn you know it just
looks really (beep) damn good.
If 2020 goes anything like 2019 has
for Kansei, which is looking like it will,
they're going to become a massive name
in the aftermarket world of wheels.
And we're really excited to see
what they will do.
And then to our last set
of new wheels for 2020,
because it's actually a few more wheels.
We're gonna be talking about none
other than Rohana.
Now Rohana had a ton
to show us at SEMA this last year.
We had some really good samples
to take a look at.
You know we had like a Pandem Supra,
a Liberty Walk Huracan, and a GTR
which were all sporting their new designs.
So Rohana is going to be introducing
a whole lot into their Forged Series wheels.
And then it's going to be named their RFG Series.
And that is going to include
not only three piece,
and not only two piece,
but as well as a monoblock forged option
for every design in that RFG lineup.
That's a whole lot of wheels.
Some of the ones we're excited
about are the RFG11,
which is going to be a directional wheel
that features a split five spoke design,
but also has an additional kinda like
smaller spoke that runs along next to it.
I don't really know how to explain it,
but it's kinda cool.
And it gives a lot of sharp angles
and overall aggressiveness,
to the design itself.
And like I mentioned before,
the RFG11 is going to be available
in three different options.
Their monoblock forged,
the Tandem, which is their two piece variant,
and the Trinity, which is the three piece version.
A quick note on this is that the monoblock
and the Tandem version,
will both have the spokes
come all the way to the edge
of the lip of the wheel.
Where the Trinity, or the three piece version,
among all of the RFG Series will have
that floating spoke design.
Which looks absolutely fantastic.
We've been seeing it more and more
throughout the last couple of years,
come out in the multi piece wheel game.
Another wheel in the lineup
we're looking forward to is the RFG15.
Which is another split five spoke.
However this one is not directional.
With this wheel being a forged wheel,
the spokes can be pretty thin,
as we can see in the RFG15.
So same thing goes for here as well,
monoblock, two piece, and three piece.
The RFG15 is gonna be a wheel
for those looking for some concavity
in their design of their wheels.
Like their traditional Rohana styles.
And that is with some help
of that floating spoke design.
So a lot of good stuff coming from Rohana
this year as well.
Even though they're going to be
a little more on the higher end,
as far as price.
They're going to be wheels
that you're gonna wanna keep your eye on,
Because they do look amazing,
and like the finishes that they offer 'em in,
and just like the overall style and design,
it's going to be great.
And I do believe we're gonna
start seeing them popping up
on a lot more cars.
Specifically wide body cars this year
maybe cars like the GTRs,
and the Lamborghinis,
and all that kind of stuff.
So there it is,
a quick list of some new wheels
that are coming out in 2020.
That we know of as of right now.
Of course there are going to be
more being announced
as time goes on here,
and as we start getting into the new year.
And we're here to keep you up-to-date
on all of that.
So stay tuned to find out more
of everything that is going on.
We actually should have an unboxing.
Taking a look at some of the brand new
Rohana wheels coming up pretty soon.
