Hey guys, so we're here in the man cave and you can see behind me
There's a stack of boxes and you know what that means. These are the wheels
I've been waiting for for like 7 months. I ordered it back in January and they're finally here
But before I get started, I want to show you guys my little car collection. So starting from the right here
This is the zo6. This is stingray
Huracan
458
Aventador. you had a Mustang you got the Ford, you got the GTR, Chevy, Audi R8
This one I've had for a while is the ZXR - yeah
The early 2000 version like two three or four or something
And yes, so onto the main thing here now it took a while for the wheels to get here
I ordered it back all the way in January and it's now August so it took about seven months and that was
Really brutal. It was a brutal wait, but finally, I'm so happy they're here
So let's go over the specs of the wheels first. Most importantly, this is WedsSport wheels
specifically the model is RN-05M and
This is a spec of looks like the front wheels. So I got 18-inch wheels
I got the fronts in 8 and the rear should be 9
The offset is 36 for this one
5 by 120 and these are gloss black and this one for the rear
I have it at 9 and the offset is 50. 5 by 120 again. So these are euro-spec wheels and
I'm not sure how many of you guys know about WedsSport wheels, but they are based out of Japan
Let's start with the 8-inch ones. I think I'm gonna have to put the camera down and get my knife out
[Music]
So I've already kind of unboxed this one and I kind of just realized I should probably do one
Right in front of it. So let's go with this one
See how easily I can get through this
Packaged really nicely
I've never unboxed wheels before. The last set of wheels I ordered,
They went straight to the shop and they were already unboxed by the time I got to the shop
So, okay, so I'm seeing here a cover
and there is
Another liner. Oh here we go. Wheel reveal
Wooooo! This is gloss black and wow. That looks so slick.
Oh wow
I almost don't want to touch it because it's like a piano black finish and I feel like it's gonna get fingerprints, but
Wow, so being the 9-inch version of this wheel, I think the lip is around I think
48 millimeters deep
for the 9 inch and I think the
The 8 inch one, it's about 36 millimeters. My work VS-XX wheels were like three inches deep
You know, that's
pretty aggressive wheel setup, but for this one, I couldn't go too aggressive because as many of you know,
The M240i or the 2 Series in general can't take really wide wheels
I think the widest you can fit comfortably might be 9 and a halfs
I had nines here because that's the spec these wheels can come in and
There's really no option for a 9 and a half and have the proper offset and all that stuff. You know, it's
Anyone who orders wheels, you guys know that it's a science
It's never just one fact. And you can never just be like 9 inch wheels, 10 inch wheels and expect it to fit
Offset, definitely your suspension geometry. Take all that into consideration
So wow, I'm rambling on. This is insane.
I wish I need more light on this but I want to lift it out
I will lift it are you know what I will unbox the rest of them and I will display them on the boxes when I'm done
[Music]
Check this out
There's a couple of stuff
I think there's a box in one of the other ones too that I saw but I didn't actually pull it out yet
So I'm not sure what that is, and I see a license plate
Cover here, which I'm probably not gonna use because I don't use that on my car
And what else is there? Some sort of booklet? I guess it might be a might be a catalog of wheels
that they have in their lineup and
Of course. I've been pulling out these center caps and
I think a valve stem for each of the wheels. Where's the last one? Oh, over here
So these four came with it and there's a box in one of the other boxes, I'm gonna pull that out right now
okay, so I pulled out that box that was inside one of the other wheel boxes and
I've gone ahead and opened it actually. I just haven't actually looked inside yet.
Ohh, they're lug nuts. I didn't even know I would get these!
What?! There's something else in there
Oh. hub rings, okay, cool.
This will bring it from a
72.62 to 64.15
I mean, I don't I'm not gonna be using these so these are going straight on Craigslist or Ebay or somewhere. Just kidding, I probably won't sell it.
It is the next morning and I've gone ahead and I put all the wheels and the tires in the car
so for reference, you can fit a new set of wheels and
Four tires in the car without even occupying any of the front space
I think it's what I've done right now is like two in the back, two wheels
And I think a wheel here and a wheel there and then four tires, so two each on each side and it fits perfectly
Yeah, so that's set up. Time to go to a shop and have the wheels mounted
[Music]
Are these wheels the same size? Or are they staggered?
These are staggered. So it's like 8 and a half and nine. I've never, I don't even know if it'll fit
I'm hoping it does. I did all the math and everything and if it doesn't fit, I'll be so choked
Okay, we are back in the garage and I'm gonna install the wheels
I'm gonna do it one at a time because I don't have all my proper equipment here. Don't do what I'm doing.
Right now, I just have it on the scissor jack. This one's more than capable lifting the whole car
But I don't have all my gear so I'm just gonna do one by one. I'm removing
The rear left one first and here is the one that I'm gonna be putting on. So I'm putting the nines in the back
This is the nine
Looks wider, you can tell. So I'm gonna be removing one by one and I'm actually going to resume the video again
Once I have all of them on, if not most of them
[Music]
It's okay, keep going.
There's a car coming...
Wait, let me wait for that car to pass first.
Ok
[Music]
