Very true. I'm fully building a K24, but have been stuck on trying to get a K20 oil pump kit. They either cost $550 (which I refuse to pay) as compared to their max price pre covid of $350 lol. The WHOLE kit was for $350. Now it's $550 and won't ship in the next couple months.
The prices of everything is going up from the wheels F.I sells to local gas prices to your gallon of milk. When your government spends money it doesn't have its bound to have a negative effect on the economy. Massive shortages in transport business from ships, shipping containers to truck drivers are going to drive shipping cost up aswell.
@@feta8939 If you're willing to deal with a pseudo-backorder situation of order status purgatory, go for it. At least that's what my situation appears to be so far. I ordered Artisa Carriers hoping to avoid this situation exactly and my guaranteed delivery date was listed as June 10th. It's the 9th and my order hasn't even started processing yet/left the shelf yet (confirmed with customer support). I don't mind waiting, but don't sell me a dream guaranteed delivery date on the front-end and steer me from other companies with false expectations.
@@JLeeAgency completely agree with you man. Feel like with Arista’s being FI’s own brand they should have those wheels out to you immediately. Especially with how aggressive they are with emails once you put a set of wheels in the cart and don’t buy them, since they are on back order.
I just ordered $2300 in parts off Z1 Motorsports that was all “in stock” last Friday. Monday morning rolls around and I get an email from Z1 stating my Stillen splitter and defuser won’t be in stock until the very end of June and my BC coilovers won’t be in stock until the very end of July. I’m not a patient person as it is and feel they should do something to make this a lil better for me since I have to wait so long for my parts. I mean they had no problem taking the money out of my bank account instantly 🤦♂️
It's not enough to make a profit anymore. The need is to make a killing now. Best option is to shop around. I buy used alloys, always. Get them refurbished and it's still a fraction of the price and looks brand new.

Alex you are a G and always loved your humor perfectly delivered info with perfect amount of criticism and sarcasm. Love your comedy Alex. Keep it up guys.

@@Pavorish Actually, doesn't matter how pathetic the car may be....As long as it's a Manual Transmission, it's worth customizing👍 But, Automatic Transmission vehicles will always be a waste of time and money upgrading
So happy I ordered my 3dsm 0.04 for my vw a couple weeks ago. Still waiting on them, but all good in the hood gives me a chance to do some other work on the car
Logic would have seen this coming. 2020 everyone buckled down. Now they are in a rush to regain what they lost as fast as possible. So everything is going to increase in price. But what will happen is the prices will not go back to what they are now. If it increases by 15% now, one things stabilize it will go down to maybe 10% and stay there. Because during that hike, everyone adjusted to the new pricing and forgot about what it was 6 months prior and just enjoy the 5% dip from what they were just paying. Not realizing they still went up 10%
That sucks. Good thing I'm not in the market for rims anytime soon anyways. After a year I'm finally getting a 3H Airlift kit and I'm not cutting into those funds for anything.
Dayummm, maybe the most important vid I've watched in a long time. Knew of the recent shipping fiasco, general rise in inflation, other things, but didn't put 2 and 2 together to get a size TEN mess! I'm actually thinking of buying the wheels+tires before I buy the car b/c I can't decide which BMW 340i I'll get. Or even when ... or even IF. But it seems like lots of things are about to get more, let's say, "inconvenient". Thanks for the tip, madly scouring your website as of this moment! 😨😩😱 EDIT - hey, serious question, some way of finding out where the wheels are actually manufactured? Haven't found it on your website so far. Reason I ask, if they are made somewhere other than China the shipping might be quicker. Any help from you or any reader will be appreciated!
When supply is low or non existent and demand is at a constant. Now apply that to material production and processing. Just gonna stick with my 99 mustang starfish wheels.
Feel this video in my soul. Been waiting on gramlight 57crs in racing black chrome since I ordered in NOVEMBER. I've been told I wont get them until July or August at the earliest...

Since they are manufactured in both Japan and the USA prices should remain relatively stable. You may see a slight increase due to a raw material shortage, but not as steep as wheels that are only manufactured overseas and shipped here since shipping is drastically climbing in price.
