James looks way healthier and happier lately, love to see it 🫡
-
James makes me feel comfortable to be a "car person" with minimal car mechanical knowledge and experience lmao
-
The "before" ones aren't even OEM 😂😂
-
James was a prominent member of the VW community in the "baller wheel" era of fitment and style. Dude is more than qualified to walk us through this. Also, James certainly knows his way around 3 piece wheels more than he's letting on here. Anyone from the VWVortex pre-server change community knows this.

It's so refreshing to have James as a solo presenter, loved it, reminds me why I started watching the channel at first!
-
6k for filled and drilled is wild. Especially when the redrill didn't line up with the original chamfers.
-
8:10 Slight correction. Forged wheels aren't cut from metal. They're made from compacting hot metal into a shape, kinda like making a snowball. Billet is where it's cut from a single block, like the Pagani Huayra wheels. 🫱🏾

James taste in cars is so good, bro does not miss
-
Adam died a little when he heard the cost lol!
-
I gotta say, the editing on this episode is top notch. Also, James looks really good.
-
Watching this on my lunch break while sitting in my E30 just feels right
-
Day 421 of asking James to do and Up to Speed on his Dad
-
The darker contrast of the old ones honestly looked a little better...
-
James is looking so much healthier now, not trying to shit on his previous condition. Just happy to see the new one.
-
Mans was so ready to flex didnt even take the tire stickers off LMAO I love it
-
Pumphrey is dropping some weight! Looking good brother. I actually helped my neighbors dad build wheels for his race car when I was like 8 years old, waaay back in the 80's. I remember doing something that really stunk, and later was told that it was highly toxic and I should not have inhaled it. It was the 80's, so it makes sense, and come to think of it, it actually answers a lot of questions today..... I did not realize I am almost 3 years old in Donut Underground years. Love you guys!

“I can’t wait till I run these into a curb.” 😂😂😂😂
-
James, your commitment to a marker that no longer works is commendable.
-
Those wheels are legit beautiful
-
Car looks so sick. That being said, the final side by side was a little like the office “it’s the same picture”. It’s more like a “I’m you, but stronger”
