Choosing the right antique wheels and tires for your vehicle requires careful consideration of several factors. Here are some steps to guide you in the process:
Research your vehicle: Understand your vintage car's specific make, model, and year. This information will help you determine the appropriate wheel and tire sizes that were initially used or commonly used during that era.
Determine the correct sizing: Consult the vehicle's manual, manufacturer specifications, or reputable online [...more]
Measuring your wheel offset
Wheel Fitment: When changing wheels on a vehicle, it's crucial to ensure proper fitment. Wheel offset determines where the wheel sits in or out in relation to the mounting surface. Using a wheel offset calculator, you can input your vehicle's specifications and the desired wheels, and it will calculate the offset needed for an optimal fit; this helps prevent issues such as rubbing against the fenders, suspension components, or brakes.

I am a typical "gas and go" type of driver. I really do not care how it all works as long as it does. However, I do have to buy tires. I recently had bald tires on my Mini Cooper (yes, it is true I do let it go that long oops!!). I decided to explore how difficult or easy it would be to purchase tires online. Being a small business myself I know that sector suffered much more than the big box stores during covid. I am a fan of Amazon, but I do have some reservations about what I buy from them. [...more]

The easy solution is to head to a tire dealer and have them tell you what size rims you need. However, if you're wanting to buy custom or tricked out car rims online, you'll need to be able to figure out the size for yourself.
The two easiest ways are to check the sticker plate in your car, it shou [...more]

TPMS can help improve fuel efficiency, extend tire life, and improve vehicle safety by ensuring that the tires are properly inflated [...more]

Ask almost any driving enthusiast for the best wheels at the best price, and invariably they’ll say ENKEI Wheels. Established in 1950, this aftermarket wheel manufacturer’s name is short for, ENshu KEIgokin, which translates to “light alloy of Enshu Province,” where it was founded (Enshu Province is today western Shizuoka Prefecture). In the early days of the company, ENKEI produced pretty much anything that was made of aluminum-alloy. ENKEI didn’t get into wheels until 1967, producing its first [...more]
Today, just about every vehicle on the road is equipped with black tires, though you’ll find some performance cars fitted with orange- or red-stripe tires, sometimes even white-stripe tires. Interestingly, blackwall tires haven’t always been the norm. Invented in 1914, whitewall tires featured a white sidewall with black treads. Natural rubber and zinc oxide produced the white color and good wear characteristics, but it was the addition of carbon black that drastically improved tread life. Becau [...more]
During the post-WWII economic expansion, many countries in the world experienced great increases in industrialization. In August, 1945, Hirano Rubber Manufacturing and Toyo Rubber Industrial merged, forming Toyo Tire & Rubber Company. Despite similar-sounding names, though, Toyo Tires has no relationship with Toyota Corporation, though it does produce OE (Original Equipment) tires for several Toyota, Lexus, and Scion vehicles. Today, Toyo Tires is one of the world’s top ten tire manufacturer [...more]

Whether or not you’ve prepared to buy new tires for your car, the price of new tires will likely come as a shock. Really, it should be too much of a surprise, because we know tires wear out, just like brakes and engine oil wear out, but they take so long to wear out that we forget about them. Also, because they take so long to wear out, people simply forget to budget for them, perhaps dipping into the maintenance fund for more immediate needs. Still, whether you are prepared or not, you have som [...more]
When considering car
customization, before the ground effects, aerodynamic pieces, and suspension
tweaks come into play, custom wheels are the most common and most visual upgrade.
Realizing this, Frank Hodges and his team of entrepreneurs established Lexani
Wheels in 1996, whose custom wheels and grilles quickly became sought after for
vehicles of all kinds, from Honda to Lexus to Range Rover to Rolls-Royce.
Quickly, however, Hodges realized the best strategy was to design a wheel and
