The torque thrust is basically the classic car version of the RPF1. They look good on everything so you see them on everything.
You have to know where you've been to truly know where you're going. Great video!
The AR62 Outlaw 2 and AR61 Outlaw 1 are my favorite American Racing Wheels so far
Love the content can’t wait till the channel gains traction! Y’all deserve it! Very well made!
Also, let’s teach these kids about WELD!
‘Murica
Its on the list man!! Thank you again for your support ❤️🙏
The one wheel I always wanted for my 90 Integra back in the day was the American Racing Twisted Tuner
For years i've always wanted torque thrust wheels for my dads 57 chevy belair. Whenever we get room to restore it that'll probably be the one i go with.
That’s what I have they’re pretty nice wheels but I’ve been meaning to get some new wheels
American Racing: 1970, Pete Brock, John Morton, BRE Datsun, AR Libre wheels. A wheel for the guys with Japanese imported 4-bangers and 4 lugs. Not the Torque Thrust, but still iconic.
Let’s not forget Smokey yunick
Next episode: bush latte is suing us
Harambe 😂😂😂
This takes me back to trips to Jegs in the 80's getting these rims for my 71 Merc Comet Gt. The torque thrust was the wheel to have!
Murica!!! I have Torq Thrust II's on my 96 Silveraydo! lol
Definitely an American wheel icon
Hell yeah!!! I also have a 96 silverado. Reg cab short bed and I'm buying a set of them here soon with a polished finish
Same dude. Gottem on my 98 ext. Cab c1500.

"They did the normal, and just did what they knew what they were doing."
Right on, man.
I just like the knowledge you explain. Plus I need a shirt
I've got a set of the Torque Thrust II wheels on my C3 Corvette. They look really good, but I want to powder coat them matte black with a red lip. I think it would match the theme of my build perfectly.
Could you please make an episode on Velgen? I noticed you show them a lot in your other videos.
It would be also interesting to learn more about Flow One
Velgen is def on the list stay tuned man!
Thank you, looking forward to that!
I have a staggered set of torque thrust special editions on my mustang 🤙🏼
What brand are those glasses Alex? they look nice
Awesome video. I have a set of Torque Thrust wheels on my '99 Trans Am.
Same on my z28
Had a set of Chrome Casinos on my convertable. Looked great. Wish they would make them to fit my Ridgeline.
I'm looking at 20in rims for my 73 El Camino right now, which backspace would you suggest?
Whats up man, take a look at our online gallery I think this will help you greatly! bit.ly/2Ma4oca
Is the American racing AR62 actually a 2 piece? Or are the rivets just for looks?
Yes finally !!!
I put a set of American Torque Thrust 2 15x10 with 275/60/15 Cooper Cobras GT on my 84 Dodge Ram D150 short bed...and it looks phenomenal!!!!🇺🇸👍
I always knew the brand but did not realize how many wheels they had after I checked their website.
My uncle ran the torque thrust wheels on he's old hot rod blazer
My uncle has a set of 15 inch Torq Thrust Original wheels on his 65 Mustang. They just look so cool. Easy to clean too!
That’s bad ass!
Chinese Fans here ..I almost watch every episode,just because I working in an alloy wheel manufacturer of China.I have learned a lot from your videos ,thanks dude.
Not a problem man glad to see we have fans all over the world!! 🙏
3:41 taking shots at crager 😂😂
Would you be able to help me figure out who makes this 5 spoke wheel?
I just bought a new set of the AR105 Torq - Thrust Anthracite wheels (16x7). They are going on a 1994 Cavalier Z24.
the ending LOLOL
Do the truth behind Brembos and Project Mu brake calipers.
Lin Chester got it on the docket!
I need AR39s. I cannot be the only one.
they also make the iconic Shelby wheel! Didn't you mention that?
I've got a set of 15x8 4x114.3 chrome American Racing steelies with 205/50R15 tires on my 1988 Suzuki minitruck.
How’s the quality on them bro ?
@@jamesavitia1389 small nicks where the lug nuts seat, but pretty cherry otherwise!😁 Originally for the 240z I think. Very hard for me to track down.
I have VN515 TT 2'S on order. going on a custom dropped 2002 ford f150 xlt reg cab flareside.
I just bought some for my truck and REALLY hope the fit. Imma cry if they don’t 😂
I have the flat black American racing baja wheel on my 2008 Ford Ranger and I love it it suits my vision for how I want my truck to look when complete not to mention against my truck an aggressive look
I have a black ranger and got the outlaw 2 they look clean
In the video he says the brand is domestic,on tire rack it says these are made in China..
Im thinking of buying some
When you respect American wheels your respecting mustang and Camaros across America. Which in turn means me owning a mustang means you guys respect me!!👍🏾👍🏾 thanks for the video 😂
did you just say "intern" instead of "in turn"
no no no i would never make that mistake merica!!
Just ordered a set of American Racing wheels today .
I got a set of these wheels for free lol I didn't know much about em since I don't know about older cars and such but wow now am I excited that I know a little more!
I wish they had 20” torque thrust wheels in my truck size. That would be awesome. (6x135)
Shoot the guys over at Custom Offsets an email I think they can help you out! 😉
From the title I was expecting a report on something wrong with the wheels, not a history lesson. By the way I love the wheels!
In my mind Torq Thursts are for Mustangs, Cragar S/S’s are for everything else
i fucking love Alex, he makes me laugh.
Try finding American Torque Thurst Pros 15x3 1/2, almost impossible .If you can find them they're $ 800 to $ 1000 a each wheel. What's sad you can buy a 15x4 American torque thrust II for $120
Oh hey! YA'LL LISTENED!!!
ARE 398s are dope.
The way you read the haters comment xD
I still dont understand how cragars and torque thrustr by american racing are related/similar/ or different? On your other video u went into detail on cragar and how it was soo popular,..
Nice
Hey, I don't believe it's something you offer, but.... D2 isn't talked much anymore? do a Truth about D2Racing? Would be some good information for some upcoming builders!
Good suggestion!
Can u make a video about to check is the Wheel is Cast Or Fuel.
What?
Please do ADR or Centerline next.
Definitely centerline I'm running some centerline fluted stars on my 94 Volvo 940
The rusting center cap scam put them on my sht list !
Got the VN507 for my 66 Mustang, slick wheels:

American Racing vs. Mickey Thompson
Do daytons wheels
Agreed
truth behind continental tires
❤️
I have no idea what you're talking about. Lol I'm just checking reviews on this brand. I want a feminine set of black rims for my Lexus. 😊
I have the Shelby version with the mag-grey middle and I will say that their powder coating is garbage. American Racing does not clear coat their powder coating and the rims oxidize. This is what I am dealing with currently. And because it’s a 2-piece rim, they powder coat before assembly, my powder coater is having difficulties. For how much they cost I’m disappointed with American Racing and wish I went with a different company.

🏆!
Truth behind adv.1
I want a pair for my tc. Sounds stupid because it's different
Hey man nothing wrong with being different 🤟 You should upload your TC to our gallery we would love to see it! bit.ly/2Ma4oca
The chrome on my American Racing rims is super thin and they have pitted really fast .How do I know?. Because I am removing it to polish them because it looks like crap..I read they are made in China . My brother purchased the same style of rims from American Muscle and they have not pitted in the same environment. They are probably also made in china ...but better.

Andres Sanchez just uploaded give it a min
Sometime TH-cam takes a few mins to process the video. I promise it’s in 4K - Mario
Volk! Maybe possibly, or anything really. It's not like I won't watch it...
No está en español :(
Torq thrust are there only good wheels haven't seen any good with there name on it for years
I like their super nova 5 one piece wheel...
Ooooo
less than 40.
anybody who played need for speed knows this shit
Not in my world. Cragar SS and supertricks were way more popular than torq thrust wheels back in the 80's. I dont remember american racing wheels back then. Then again this kids like 18 doing this video.
S9+ is better.
so what are katanas? whack wheels...
I heard Katanas were actually ninja swords! 😂
yet made in china
only some are made in china
American Racing Wheels are made in CHINA
I read that in a trump voice
