Fitment Industries its your daddy
I’m a normie and don’t know anything about wheels and I want to learn so when you say things like concave I don’t know what they look like and I make the assumption that the b-role is an example of what your saying please help🙏🙏
Not sure if you’ve done this yet, but talk about wheel locks and lug nuts I know it’s a simple topic but there’s many real and fake brands, and some of them make wheels so easy to steal
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
Number 5 especially.
Number 5 lmao
5... i just bought truck wheels months ago.. i want to change the color now..
I've had my wheels on my car about a month, I'm pricing a set of Buddy Clubs lmao
#5 🤣🤣
When he said “when you drive in front of the mall so everybody sees you before you park.....” I felt that
The mall, the grocery store, the gas station, take the longer way home, target, Walmart, work, volunteer to pick someone up at the airport because when you arrive at the loading gate it's basically stance parking only so everyone has to see you because you parked right in front of the door.
Hard af😂😂😩
i do this every time i go to the mall no joke 😩😩 it’s just satisfying when people turn to look like yeeeeaaaahhhh 😎
Wal mart.......
And really no one cares or notices
Driving in front of the mall... that is the realist thing you’ve said my guy 😂😂
😂
Cant curb your wheel if you have enough negative camber
Patrick Hill cant curb your hovercraft
@@muddyrelic3009 exactly
Lol I can dig it😂
Nope they'll just curb them on the tire machine when you change tires every month
@@JDJD-mw9rr I mean. Your not necessarily wrong. But your also not right.
Do a so you want to drift :)
Yes
So you wanna be a drifter
If you have many eyes on you, while parking you will scratch them, like if someone hot is watching you, you trip.
Lmao 😂
Or walk into a sign as your looking back at them🤣🤓
Alex: "It's your daddy"
Wonder what else he'll say, besides that weird scream...
1) an increased amount on your next credit statement.
so we aint gon be surprised abt that slammed prius with camber in the back 9:20
Also consider the compatibility of your tpms sensors, and Probably worth mentioning you’ll likely need aftermarket lugs. 👍
Laughs in ABS based TPMS
@Dr Beechas 2020 Honda civic sport hatchback??
Those sensors are useless.
Bro nobody talks about the lugs.. 🤦🏻♂️ took me 2 days.. till I shipped them overnight Amazon. Almost broke my emergency break
@@hungryowl1559 how? U need the psi reading
Good timing! Literally just about to buy my first set of wheels haha thanks for the tips
Always double check and triple check your sizes. If you wanna run wide tires, make sure your wheels can accommodate that. Make sure that if you need to, buy aftermarket lugs bc chances are the OEMs won't fit. TSW wheels for example have a conical lug seat so look for lugs with a conical seat. Also make sure those same aftermarket lugs have the same thread pattern, most cars are 12x1.5 or 12x1.25. All in all just research and ask around, people will be happy to help out!
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😭😭😭
Matthew Heitzman I curbed my lip of my wheel the first day it snowed on a turn on a one lane turn 🤦🏿♂️almost cried haha
You'd be surprised how much damage you can do in potholes that looks like the wheels were curbed if you have low enough profile tires
I bought wheels literally 3 weeks ago from you guys and they still aren’t here come on boys
Dang that long? 😲 I just ordered mine like 3 days ago, and everytime i check their progress, still on "order placed", i hope i dont have to wait that long since i got some parts arriving before my rims for my A4 even tho theyre coming from almost the same distance...what a bummer 😞
Edgar Nunez yeah it’s really unfortunate, my wheel arrived at their facility around a week ago (mind you this is still 2 weeks after I ordered) and I was notified there was a big scratch on one of the wheels so they had to get a new one and now we are on the back end of week 3 and still nothing
St00p HD yeah man looking back on it, I’ve heard nothing but good things about fitment but man this is taking wayyyyy too long
cultyz450f dude I wish
Hey Justin, Shoot us a message on FB sometime I can see what I can do for you. - Erik
Awesome! Those are Jendosa ZG flares on The Z 95. I do get a lot of questions, this video will help out. Thank you! keep up the good work. Cheers!
Honestly Alex I love your videos the most from this UA-cam page 😂 you’re funny as hell and say so many things that a lot of people could relate to like the whole “driving infront of the mall” thing 😂 the other guys are cool too but just love yours the most lol
Also bumps on the road are harder on suspension components (links, struts,etc) if you go lower on your tire
Love your work, and respond, from your team. Hopefully I could get my set of wheels soon from you guy
Im so Hyped!! Finally got my wheels/tire package ordered through you guys :) sucks that ESR are on back-order, but I know they will be worth it!
HELLLL YEAHHHH!!! When you get the wheels installed you should upload some pictures to our gallery sometime! www.fitmentindustries.com/add-wheel-offset
Super helpful just ordered my SR01 and kinda doubted myself but they’ll be sickk
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 😂😂
Just ordered my air suspension from you guys! Great vid too I’ve been scanning the gallery for the past couple days so I can try to find the best set of 3 piece wheels that’ll clear the Brembo’s 😁
We can always help you with this as well! Just email us sometime at shop@fitmentindustries.com and we can get you a list!
You guys should do a video in retro/old wheels.
Just got a set of Carlsson 2/6 BEs. Thinking about refinishing them in a different color.
Aye fitment once i get money expect my G35 to look fresh with some rims and tiers. love your website it has dope stuff
One of the sickest 280Z's I have seen in a while. Is that yours? Please point me to a UA-cam video on it. Just bought an Lexus ls430 and have your site bookmarked. Will be in contact when ready to upgrade the wheels and tires. Great channel. Just saw the grey Fairlady, sweet as hell.
Omg... that Fairlady is so beautiful.
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?
We art still looking into this one. 😂
I honestly do drive in front of malls and stores to show off my wheels XD
(varrstoen mk9's +22 offset 18x10.5 on an sc300)
Man I wish I had this kind of content available back in 2005 when I was buying my first wheels for my 3g eclipse!
Hubcentric rings too. Important for that nice fit onto your hubs
There's so much to know about wheels man, I'm gunna be terrified when I try to buy my first set. Gunna go straight to forums and do some research lol..
Thank you for the heads up
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.
😂
I bought my wheels and was recommended an offset to get flush, but they definitely poke real far.
Yep my SSR's took 3 months to get mailed to the US then another week or 2 for them to arrive at home. [edit] 3:28 bro a Z with deep concave looks so dope
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.
Jacob Proctor gotta pay to play
Thats facts, but it really is worth it once you get your build goin
That's basically life my dude. Anything built to your spec, or anything unique for that matter requires special/extra care to keep it in a decent shape.
I'd be just as carefull with a brand new car as i would be with brand new wheels. You'll want to keep them clean AF for the longest time possible right?
Pay to play is so true man damn! lol
I went to 18x9.5 on a STI with Michelin sport 4s and now I skrrrreet round turns
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.
Ordered some niche m117 misanos 19 by 9.5 with Lexani Lx Twenty Tires 225/40r19 for my 07 Altima from you guys. Can’t wait to get them!
Tag us in some photos once they come in! 🙏
@@FitmentIndustries Sure thing!
5 things to expect after buying a Nissan 240SX
nissan 240sx how bout “so you want a 240sx”
Just bought an s13 silvia yesterday and yes i need that video
It breaks
You fix it
You crash
You fix it
It catches fire
Dont forget about the hubcentric rings or look at hub size of your vehicle vs hub size of the wheels
I love my Niché Verona m150 on my Lancer.
18x8 w/ BFG Comp-2
Nice and snug.
I friggin love you guys!!! So my people's 💜 never hear about mini stuff. You got anti roll bars for that?
Just bought a set of Rotiforms and I've never driven so slow or taken corners so wide in my life.
Bro I just posted this at TJ hunt's video that My Wife drove my Evo 9 around the neighborhood and curbed by TE-37s! Yup I cried that night.
Holy Shit I remember you. I watched that a long time ago
I don't know if it really applies to new wheels but at least when buying old wheels make sure the hub diameters are big enough to clear. If u have a staggered setup you most likely have different hub diameters in front than rear. I bought old jdm wheels for my s2000 and the hub diameter was too large on the front. Luckily I found a machine shop to mill the wheels for a really good price
Tfw 8:11 called me out like they've been watching me from a distance even though this came out a full year before I bought wheels that wouldn't clear the brakes on my sti. Lesson learned either way and good thing I was able to return them and get something else that would actually fit (not a spacer boi).
As for brake clearance, if ur going with the most negative offset u should be good right? Or would u still need to consider the backspacing?
Best tip of today for wheels or ANYTHING
BUY THE PART/WHEEL YOU WANTTTTT
NOT THE PART/WHEEL YOU CAN AFFORD AT THE TIME CAUSE ITS SHINEY
Completely agree with this. Wait a bit, save some money, and get what you really want
But the part/wheel I want is 4k a piece. And let me tell you, I don't have 4k
@@griffinsells2611 save until you do
@@griffinsells2611 I'm 17 and saved up for about 10 months (only saving my cash tips from work) and got the wheels I wanted. I'll admit they were even close to 4 thousand. Used market is a good option too
I love how I never fit into these videos haha. All terrain on Subarus life.... wanna watch me jump that curb.
Same bro. Black rhinos FTW
I could've used this before I bought my wheels 😂🤦♀️ I'm running+40 offsets but thought that they would look as concave as some +15 wheels of the same type... I was surprised af when I saw them on my car and they looked flat af😭
Since y’all don’t have any z31’s in the gallery, can I add some? Btw, I ordered my wheels from you guys on like the 12th for sumthin and it said estimated delivery about a month. I was SUPER surprised when they came in 4 days later. THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE THEM
That's awesome fam! And definitely add your car to the gallery! 🙏
Alex.. those glasses of your’s are on point bro... 👌🏽
i love how in like every vid they say "i no you've done it with your car" but im a couple years from my drivers license
thx for noticing my comment, u guys are awesome!!!
You're expected to take good care of your rims. Scratches are minor, cracks are bad if you have multipiece, and breaking them is horribly expensive!
Aftermarket wheels are just another way of getting 'related' to your car! Investment and responsibility.
Love the band camp reference 😂😂😂
Haircut looking hella fresh, Alex!
I had to grind down my calipers a little lol
I just ordered my sr02 and this timing was perfect lol esr gang
Ayeee!! Nice, You should upload your ride to our gallery sometime with the pictures of your new wheels when you get them installed! www.fitmentindustries.com/add-wheel-offset
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.😅👍
Bit specific 🤔
2:19 Damn they got me... I did that when I got my Konig Ampliforms. Lol
“This one time at band camp”😂😂😂 need some pie?
Ayeeee, that Krispy Media plug
How long do backorders take from you guys? I ordered mine back in may and its already been 3 weeks..
Hey guys great video. I have a 03 lancer and going to be purchasing set of katana kr30 17in. And wanted to know what the widest tire I can fit without having to mod fenders. Thinking of going with 2154017 good fit?
Hey there! Shoot us an email at shop@fitmentindustries.com and we can help you with this!
That silver Honda Accord hybrid...id like to get the front lip..do you have a site that I can purchased it from?
Sometimes like subarus you gotta reprogram the TMPS light depending on the car

I see you adding volume to your hair alex ;)
Took my slammed s2000 to the mall, came back and someone stole my bbs rims don’t know how they got the car up.
My guy, you got wheels without wheel locks? ??
@@jmoz9305 Wheel locks are easy to defeat.
@@johnjacob688 how
@@ScUbAStEvESCOOBZ There are a bunch of videos on youtube showing different methods for different types of locks. Search, how to remove wheel locks.
Funny... Brixton just shot me an update email today; and boom, this video shows on my suggestions... awesome!
Dont forget to think about getting new lug nuts/bolts because the old ones is probably not gonna fit.
I have a set of Konig Illusions? I have noticed a ringing hum sound when I accelerate over 35-40 mph? You guys have any suggestions on how to stop this or what causes it?
I bought aftermarket wheel and it seems front passenger side wheel sticks out further than front driver side wheel. Also both my front wheels is super hot after driving
hey guys i got a question, im looking for mustang gt350 style wheels and i found these used ones for $1000 that have good tread, tpms and lung nuts. they are from sve. but if i were to get them new with tpms and lug nuts they would be $1500. do you think saving $500 is a good deal or it should be lower?
Take wider turns then normal when buying wheels anything wider then your stock rim as well. That’s how I curved mine once. Oh question do you guys carry wheel pressure sensors? Cause my Scion XB has them.
Sure do! Shoot us an email at shop@fitmentindustries.com and we can help you get a set if you'd like!
See this is all well and good, but what do you do when literally every wheel that’s supposed to fit your car just doesn’t?
Why is my car special? Why does it poke so much more than every other car on the same setup?
I think I just need a nice Forrest Gump level explanation on how to measure for clearance, offsets etc.
“This one time in band camp”😂🤣🤣American pie
I kno I’m late to the party, but does anyone know what kind of wheels those concave 7 spoke are behind him? They’re in the bottom right corner next to Alex’s shoulder
Nice video. Like the hair do Alex.
The mall part.... oh god I got some iroc replicas on a 99 Tahoe I had and god damn I felt like a pimp driving in front of the mall in front of crowds
what are your thoughts on asa racing wheels they came on the infinity i just bought ive never heard of the brand i think there aluminum definitely not stock previous owner never mentioned anything about it 🤔
Can you do a video on how to properly measure for fitment
We actually did one! Go check it out on our channel!
If u live in a neighborhood like mine, expect your wheels too be gone in two days...park in the garage.
Locking lugs! I know it doesn't prevent it completely, but some deterrence is better than none! Hope it all ended up in your favor in the end my friend.
Park it in the house... The wife won't notice
Bet! Gonna try it tonight! 😂
4x lug nuts. done
This one time at bandcamp 😂
What rims would you guys put on a 2002 volvo v70?
What is the wheel in the background on the far left of the top row? The one with 10 spokes
I scratched my wheel like a 1/4 of an inch on the lip 😭 the 3rd day of having them on. Now i park like 2 feet away from curves lol
So true!! I just ordered wheels and have checked tracking on FI every 30min😂
I was the same way! 😂
I just picked them up today! Thx for the great service!
Alex, what are those 2 wheels off of your left elbow?
Lol had to subscribed this guy's awsum 😁
Thank you! lol welcome to the fam! 🙏🏼
I love fat sidewalls!!! I curb my tires sometimes and no damage to the wheel.
Lol Steve knows all about that! 😂
*DESPACITOOOOOO* I'M BACK BOYSSS. Sorry for no Despacito for a week, I had to have an emergency operation on my appendix. I'm still bed ridden cause the op went a little pear shaped but I'm now able to comment again. 🗿

The big brake kit STI part killed me🤣
🤣🤣🤣
“When you drive in front of the mall so everyone sees you i know you’ve done it”
Hahaha oh Fuck guilty as charged bro 😂😂😂😂😂 every time
It's like you guys are reading my mind. Just bought a set of aftermarket wheels! Now I'm broke. A happy broke guy.
I love my new xxr 521 I bought from you guys on my slammed odyssey. Got a email saying they were more of a semi gloss instead of flat black and they look way better semigloss on my van then the flat would have looked. Definitely going to be buying my civics wheels from Fitment Industries in a few months when I get it running again!! WCEC 4 life!!
Is it usual to have lugs come loose when you first put in spacers
“It’s your daddy” Lmao boi
Just ordered wheels last night from you guys, now I wake up to this..... strange
