Zarrick we all go down a rabbit hole at some point. Looking at buying a rally car knowing damn well I can't afford one see the price and say well I'll book mark that shit for later. Lmfao.
Great point made about how a steel wheel will take most of a hit and save the suspension. I was already leaning towards rally-like alloy wheels for snow tires on my daily, but now I'm much more open to using steelies instead.
For snow tires on a normal daily drive I would go steel. If you do kerb it the wheel will buckle, but you will still be able to get home. An alloy, especially a lower end one will much more likely break and collapse especially in the colder weather.
Back in the 80s and early 90s, Audi offered its Fuchs rally wheels as an option on all the Quattro models, from the Coupe to the 5000/200. They even color-matched them to the pearl white paintjob.
Starter low budget rally car for next video?. One of my goals is rally on a low budget, i'm only 19 years and i saving to buy some kinda wagon or station wagon for traying to rally and thing as that.
Sportyish subies are great starters seeing that most come with awd and at least 140 hp. A Honda Civic hatchback is also a great fwd car, perfect for entry racing cheap. The first thing you always have to do is get some suspension and wheels/tires, see if you can find some cheap old enkei rally rims, I've always used them and I'd trust them with my life
Excellent vid, I troll around the net and try to learn something new each day. Your vid has explained more about rims then I thought I needed to know, and none of it was useless. Thank you for adding a bit to my bank of info.
Good God man! That's a lot of info, but it;s well presented, and waaaaay more info than most presenters give laymen such as myself. This reminded me of weekends sent with my uncle when I was 12, and the welding/mechanical/technical info came shooting at me a mile a minute. Thanks and well done!
"If the colleges were better, if they really had it, you would need to get the police at the gates to keep order in the inrushing multitude. See in college how we thwart the natural love of learning by leaving the natural method of teaching what each wishes to learn, and insisting that you shall learn what you have no taste or capacity for. The college, which should be a place of delightful labor, is made odious and unhealthy, and the young men are tempted to frivolous amusements to rally their jaded spirits. I would have the studies elective. Scholarship is to be created not by compulsion, but by awakening a pure interest in knowledge. The wise instructor accomplishes this by opening to his pupils precisely the attractions the study has for himself. The marking is a system for schools, not for the college; for boys, not for men; and it is an ungracious work to put on a professor." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Could you guys go over suspension setups? For example ride height; higher vs lower ride height or having it offset (higher front lower rear or vice versa) or if soft vs stiff is better for bumps/cornering at certain speeds or if an offset would be better (such as stiffer front/softer rear or vice versa). Obviously softer would be better for bump absorption but when does soft/stiff or high/low affect cornering, body roll, bump absorption, and stability negatively? Things like that. Thanks for the great info btw!
That was super cool, I could've guessed about the material being different but I would've never considered a difference in diameters on the same wheel. Fascinating stuff
A good thing with steelies besides being cheap to buy and taking the hit for suspension components is that it bends but often keeps the tire seated and air in the tire. An alloy will often break and thus deflate the tire instantly. I’d much rather wobble my way to the finish line with air still in the tire instead of a broken wheel and deflated tire.
Now I wanna see a series of just taking different styled rims and seeing how much abuse they can take. Everything from big fancy pickup rims, to old beater rims. Ire would be interesting to see how spoke sizes and numbers affect the wheel along with the quality of the metal that makes it.
Love the mentioning of inserts for larger hubs. In a factory where I work we have cord weaving machines. Very high RPM high performance stuff. Motors in there are made of aluminium and after a while shaft bearings beat those aluminium walls so that they don't fit anymore. So the company attempted to put a steel ring between the shaft bearing and the motor body and boy was it a failure. Turns out if there is precise fit of steel to aluminium it works decently. But once there is a fit of steel to steel to aluminium that motor just eats shit and dies. My guess is that the steel ring in between is just easier to hammer to different proportions and then it transfers that distortion in to the motor wall.
At 6:00 you talked about the actual design of that particular wheel. So looking at the M-Sport wheels they don't have large open spokes, are they designed that way to keep most of the debris out? I always wondered if that was the purpose.
I believe the M-sport wheels are also able to have several spokes damaged or missing & they'll still hold the wheel in place. Compomotive TH wheels are a very similar design too.
I mostly jumped a ditch in my 68 Rolla at about 95 mph. The front tires hit the far side first, bounced, almost did an end over...landed with the front tires pointing away from each other. Centerlink was bowed pretty badly but the steelies were fine.
I'm looking at getting a set of wheels for my rally car. I am looking at Konig Dial-Ins and Revolution GR14 and I was wondering what Team O'Neil had to say about those 2 options?
would you guys consider selling second hand rims you've got sitting around collecting dust? (assuming there are some sitting around ... most car guys have a plethora of random stuff sitting around taking up space) i would be very interested to know if you would be open to something like that! doesn't hurt to ask!
I had steel wheels on my car, first outing at Rallycross they handled it alright, but last run of the day I seriously broke a wheel, the whole center of it broke away from the rest. It may hold up better to sharp impacts because it's less rigid but I don't see an aluminum wheel tearing like that under heavy strain
Heavier wheels makes the brakes work harder as well as your motor. Slower acceleration also.lighter wheel is able to rotate easier which also saves fuel milage so its better when its a smooth road
What size rim would you suggest for rally racing? I saw o.z starts at 17” but dynamic only has 15”. I was thinking about making my 02 civic hatchback a rally car.
For gravel, 15" is the only way to go. Those are BY FAR the most common tires. Most teams use 17s for tarmac (but there is very little tarmac in the US and Canada). So 15s.
Would you recommend the OZ Rally Racing (2017 New Edition) as a winter wheel for a daily driven GT86? I'm running Sparco Assetto Gara for the summer and want something nicer than OEM wheels for the winter soon. Thought you might have enough experience to give a clue :-D
You don't run antilag systems on entry-level cars. You run them when you can afford to frequently replace your turbo, parts of your exhaust, and your engine every once in a while.
10:46 - you said lug bolts are garbage, but you are using some German cars in your fleet that came with the lug bolts from the factory. Did you convert those cars to lug nuts? If so, which conversion kits did you use? Thanks!
Hi Alex! We have retired all the VWs and almost all of the Audis at this point, but yes they have wheel bolts and yes they are a pain in the butt. We had not converted them. Actually the BMWs are wheel bolts still probably too? They work OK unless you're in a hurry, and the brake rotor turns slightly as you're putting the wheel on... You've probably played this game before...
The wheels that came on my car are Speedline Chrono's. I heard Speedline is a really good wheel brand and they make rally wheels but does anyone know if the Chrono model is okay for rally? Mine are 17 inch though which I doubt is ideal for rally tires on a first gen impreza.
Those are great wheels BUT you're going to find almost all gravel rally tires are 15". You can get tarmac rally tires in 17" which are like really strong track tires... Check out www.demon-tweeks.com/us/motorsport/wheels-tyres/competition-tyres/rally/#/
If I was doing rallycross/khanacross and using like, used/second hand rally tyres, would steel wheels be able to run them or would they bend with the stiffness of the tyre
Bent my OEM wheel on my Impreza going over a pot hole in country roads. After watching this vid I think Sparco is the way to go... not for hardcore rally racing but just something to take a little bit more that a regular OEM
mud also sticks inside the rims. This causes the wheel to go out of balance. That is also why you always see the rally service crews cleaning those used wheels. Wheel weights are usually between 5 and 25 grams. it's quite easy to accumulate 25++grams of mud inside a wheelrim.
I'm pretty sure he's correct about the balancing weights. Maybe it is possible to get slightly heavier, but from memory it sounds about legit. If much more than a couple are needed I would imagine there is some issue with either the wheel or the tire itself or possibly tire mounting. An unbalanced wheel at over 100 certainly isn't ideal, especially when it hits it's particular resonant frequency.
Where did you get that 4 stud Method wheel? Looks like it would fit on my 2005 Focus ZX3. I have been looking everywhere. Sturdy wheels and tires have been a big problem.
We ordered a special batch directly from Method, they weren't sure if there was enough of a market to justify offering the 4x108 wheels as a normal product... Looking at their site now, apparently not. Check out: www.demon-tweeks.com/us/motorsport/wheels-tyres/competition-wheels/shop-by/pcd/4x108/
@@Teamoneilrally Thanks. They do have something I can use. Funny name. Never ran across it. How about brake and suspension parts? Used rally tires in Maine, NH, Vermont area?
You just said softer and harder aluminum but didn’t say anything about cast wheels, pressure cast wheels and forged wheels. That makes the difference. Other than that this is really educational.
Thanks for the video as I decide what wheels to get for rallycross events. I've seen steelies sheer off cars at a few rallycross events. I see them as brittle. I wouldn't want to risk it.
John Carder Forged is usually better because they're stronger for the same weight. Cast tends to be porous and more likely to have defects that can cause cracks. But, cast is cheaper because they're easier to make.
The only advantage of cast wheels is cost. They are the new steel wheels now that alloys are standard, only without the advantages of steel. Generally not good for racing, but some specific models might be alright.
forged have excellent attributes but also some minor ones. it's all depending on use. Ice- and Snow Rally usually they use composite rims. (usually from Compomotive) might be because of the low temperatures making alloys more brittle while composite not so much.
Great info bro but I think you forgot to mention that genuine strong and expensive ‘racing’ wheels are actually ‘forged’ instead of being just ‘casted’.

Hey, man... That white "Team Dynamics" rim you were holding... Can that rim fit on Golf MK2 GTI with 4 bolts?
Heck are wheel scrapers?
Mud and dirt likes to build up on the inside of the wheels and will eat away the brake calipers. So you added scrapers to clear the debris out.
mud also sticks inside the rims. This causes the wheel to go out of balance. That is also why you always see the rally service crews cleaning those used wheels.

Are there any benefits of bronze wheels?

Forged versus cast?
John Carder Forged is usually better because they're stronger for the same weight. Cast tends to be porous and more likely to have defects that can cause cracks. But, cast is cheaper because they're easier to make.
Thank you. So, I assume forged is pretty much standard on real rally cars.
I think Forge is standard on all hardcore race cars. Like forged vs cast pistons as another example.
The only advantage of cast wheels is cost. They are the new steel wheels now that alloys are standard, only without the advantages of steel. Generally not good for racing, but some specific models might be alright.
forged have excellent attributes but also some minor ones.
it's all depending on use.
Ice- and Snow Rally usually they use composite rims. (usually from Compomotive)
might be because of the low temperatures making alloys more brittle while composite not so much.
does rallying a normal road car damage it?
You can’t rally a normal road car. It wouldn’t pass tech
Would rally wheels be good for a winter set in -40c?
Not too sure about the more specific ones that pull the tire extra tight but the cheaper ones are in its essence standard heavy duty wheels.
Why are there disc wheels & straight spoke wheels?
Great info bro but I think you forgot to mention that genuine strong and expensive ‘racing’ wheels are actually ‘forged’ instead of being just ‘casted’.
