    All VTX needs to do is copy SCS and make a F5 wheel. Game over.

    I have SCS wheels on my truck now. Im all for SCS, I can say without a doubt though, If I couldnt get my F5 17x9 wheels when I wanted them and another company had something similar and available I wouldn't hesitate. Both are cheap shit wheels that you are going to bash on rocks anyway.

    I have been very happy with my F5s and dealing with Vin. Probably the only way I'd buy from anyone else would be for Hutchinson bead locks.
    I agree, the demand is very high and for good reason.

    I've owned a set before and loved them so much that I want to buy another set, that's not the issue. He needs to up his supply or go back to the wait/back order list. This is literally the only wheel I want, and I would be fine with waiting a bit to get them if I were on a back order list. The problem is there is no guarantee that I'll be able to get them the next time they become available, and that pisses me off.

    Yeah they're super popular and have good fitment for our vehicles but really they're just cheap wheels. I came from the German scene where people were dropping 4-12k on wheels alone. SCS wheels are disposable.

    Rotiform! I'm sure there are others, maybe even better, but Roti makes some wheels that are unbelievably gorgeous. My current favorite is the BUC at $8k a set.

    My car was an older 05, and I bought my headers and tune, on sale, for 2500. The newer C63s people were paying 4-6k for long tube headers and a tune. German tax was fucking ridiculous.

    Does 4xinnovations make sliders for your gx? I paid 280 shipped for mine with kickout, but it was a weld-on.

    Yeah I come from the car scene as well. If you bought anything below like 800 dollars a wheel they are fake reps.

    The 4runner ones would work, but I'd have to make it contort around the KDSS pump on the frame
