The Greatest Engine We Never Got? || Behind The Wheel Podcast

Posted on by Richard Waters

On this podcast Scott and Rich talk about possibly the best engine that was never made. Was this 4 cylinder LS motor by Blueprint Engines what enthusiasts have been longing for? Being able to have such a compact engine with high horsepower and torque is a dream come true. What was the reason for this not coming to fruition? We want this engine!

Are These Engines Still That Good? || Behind The Wheel Podcast

Posted on by Richard Waters

On this podcast Scott and Rich discuss older icon engines such as the Nissan RB26, Toyota 2JZ, Honda B and K series, Nissan SR20, Mitsubishi 4G63 etc. We are almost 30 years in the future since these engines came out and they are appreciating in value. Are these engines really that good or are people looking to buy these because of nostalgia or hype? On a second thought, are these engines retaining and appreciating in value because they really are that good? Do car manufactures put the same amount of effort in engineering high performance engines as they did 20-30 years ago? Let us know your thoughts!

EV’s Aren’t Going To Last || Behind The Wheel Podcast

Posted on by Richard Waters

On this podcast Rich and Daut talk about the ongoing trend of manufacturers banking on nostalgia and branding giving new vehicles model names of past enthusiast models. Will seeing something like the new Honda Prelude resonate with owners of the Preludes we all know and love? If manufactures decide to give EV’s model names such as Miata and GTI that have cult like fan bases, will it capture the hearts of those or will it leave them in a state of rejection? Let us know if you think carrying over model names to new models is okay or if you think they should just have called it something else entirely.

Choosing Truck Tires ft. Milestar Tires || Behind The Wheel Podcast

Posted on by Richard Waters

On this podcast John is joined by Chuck Converse of Milestar tires to talk about all things truck tire related. With the introduction of our HyperTrail series we felt it would be a great idea to get with the experts to give us their insight on important aspects of choosing the right truck tire. As wheel experts you can imagine the amount of tire specific questions we get and although we can normally answer many of the questions pertaining to tires we are not the tire experts. It always helps for us to turn to tire companies to give their professional input.
