    I have some Enkei Kojins and they are great rotary forged wheels. They survived bouncing off of a barrier at 70mph and still are round.

    Y'all seem to know what the heck people are looking for when they walk into a hobby/passion better than ANYONE I've ever seen. The help and "ask me the stupid questions" mentality is SUCHHHH a blessing to people trying to figure out what they want, and I just wanted to say how awesome I think it is and how thankful I am for it. Unfortunately as of the moment I'm a bit of a broke teen and so cars are more of a dream on the horizon than a "someday soon" kind of hobby, but if there was something like what you guys are doing for some of the other things I'm involved with like longboarding... DUDE it'd be so much easier. Thanks for doing your thing, homie. Keep doin' cars. 🤙

    This was super informative! Loving your content and I can't understand why you dont have more subs.
    I'm curreently stuck in analysis paralysis in trying to find a set of wheels for my '19 Corolla Hatch. Im looking for that classic 5 or 6 spoke look, but there are so many options out there. Im leaning toward Enkei, but would love your opinion on other brands that provjde good bang for your buck.

      Sandblasting won't effect your wheels.

      Sandblasting doesn't impact the metallurgy of the wheel. Powdercoating can and does so you need to be careful.

    I have an E36 316i Sedan with a supercharged S52. I have 17 inch Fifteen52 Turbomacs and I also have 18 inch Rays RE30s. I am interested in getting another set but a 3 pc Work Meister M1 square setup. I however am torn between choosing 17s or 18s. I like driving fast and I like performance. I am also using 330mm big brake kit so some 17s are not gonna fit like the Style 5s. So what is your opinion? 17s or 18s for my E36. I won't sell my old wheels either.
