Well the ADV.1 CLS63 is on it’s second set of wheels in under a month – this set went the way of a 3-piece 21″ Track Spec setup with a ADV10 spoke design. These wheels certainly make a statement and did their fair share of work the past weekend as they ate through rubber at an astonishing rate under the clumsy right foot of our fearless leader and the backbeat of an AMG tuned rumble. Which looked better though? These are the previous ADV5.1 monoblocks?

Vision. Its something that most auto enthusiasts need to execute their car in the fashion they have buzzing in their heads. This is is clear vision! We have a new Ford Mustang with staggered 20″ CV3 wheels both in a matte graphite finish. This owner accented the car with splashes of yellow in just the right places, from the side mirrors to the huge brake kit added. This vehicle was also an award winner at 2011 SEMA! The CV3s match the aggressive nature of this modified Mustang perfectly! Chat about it on our Facebook page or just leave a comment here and click any picture to see the gallery of pics!

Here we have the kind of sleeper that’ll wake you up no time: a short-bed, four-wheel-drive Chevrolet Silverado with an LS9 from the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. With dyno numbers of 510 horsepower and 504 pound-feet of torque, there’s a jump of at least 205 hp and 169 lb-ft over the most powerful factory engine you can get in that truck.
The result? Sound and fury, both of which you can get a taste of in the video after the jump.

We’ve done a few 1-series but with the introduction of the TRAKfunction line bringing our product line down significantly in cost we’ve been able to get a lot more 1-Series on the roads rocking ADV.1′s. This latest build simply has a perfect fitment and looks aggressive in a nice understated manner. This car showcases simplicity and perfection with the combination of a 19″ staggered ADV10 TRAKfunction setup and the gorgeous black lines of the 135i. Via http://www.adv1wheels.com

The Ford SVT Raptoris a special kind of truck. After all, there aren’t many mass production vehicles on this planet capable of performing the off-roading feats that the Blue Oval rig can do without breaking a sweat. But what happens when your trailblazing journey involves an overnight stay, and there are no Holiday Inns out in the middle of the desert?
Phoenix Campers thinks they have the answer in the form of a specially built pop-up camper unit that fits within the 5.5-foot bed of the Raptor. The snug-fitting camper top can be had in body color, complete with an extension of the digital mud available on the flanks of every Raptor. The camper features a refrigerator, three burner stove and a double sink with water tank. The main bed in the cabover portion is a full queen-size, and if out the dinette you’re greeted with a blow-up queen sized bed with electric pump that measures out to a short but predictable 5.5-feet in length.
More important is the fact that this camper fits securely in the bed, giving the owner the ability to shut the tailgate for extra security. The unit is also relatively light weight, which means that this Phoenix Camper shouldn’t kill the Raptor’s off-road chops.
But while Phoenix Campers touts this camper’s utility and sturdiness, the company can’t hide the fact that this makeshift mobile home is less than appealing to the eye. But hey, if you’ve bought a Raptor expressly for going off-roading, you’re probably more interested in the fact that this capable little pop-up camper won’t do much to hamper performance.

The Aston Martin V8 Vantage is a stunning car in its own right. Perfect sports car curves and the now iconic Henrik Fisker penned long hood, short deck design set it apart from other exotics within its price range. How do you improve on what many consider to be one of the most beautifully designed vehicles of the modern era? By adding a custom set of perfectly sized high performance wheels of course.

Custom forged HRE P40 Monoblok wheels look perfectly at home in the sculpted wheel wells of this British Racing Green V8 Vantage. Measuring 19×9″ in the front, 19×10″ in the back the offset is perfect when combined with the slight ride height drop. The The wheels are finished in Satin Charcoal to compliment the car’s understated yet elegant style, and we think it looks perfect.

HYUNDAI GENESIS COUPE RACE CAR FROM GOGOGEAR RACING READY FOR COMPETITION AND SEMA SHOW 2010

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Oct. 19, 2010 – To showcase the power, speed and tunability of the Genesis Coupe, Hyundai has teamed up with Gogogear Racing to develop a high performance racing competitor that will be unveiled at the 2010 SEMA Show. The Gogogear Racing Genesis Coupe emphasizes racing reliability and high-end performance capabilities. Additionally, the bright yellow paint scheme was designed in conjunction with Hyundai’s California Design Center.

“The Genesis Coupe is designed to convey that Hyundai can not only match the best from Asia, Europe and America, but beat them,” said Ali Arsham, owner, Gogogear Racing. “With its potent V6 engine and rear drive chassis, the Genesis Coupe has the ability to beat the current top guns that feature turbocharged four-cylinder engines and front wheel drive. It has ample power, terrific handling, and great reliability that become even more potent with the modifications we’ve planned.”

Gogogear Racing plans to show off the performance capabilities of its modified Genesis Coupe car in the U.S. Touring Car Championships in 2011 which is sanctioned by the premiere auto racing sanctioning body in the U.S., the National Auto Sport Association. The car also has the potential to run at selected events including Time Attack and endurance races.

Modifications to the Genesis Coupe will prepare the performance vehicle for the track. Mechanical adjustments to the engine aim to produce 330 horsepower and 280 lb. ft. of torque by adding an AEM air intake, Magnaflow exhaust system and ARK Performance headers. A Moroso accumulator will ensure proper lubrication of the engine under the expected 1.4 Gs of cornering loads. Earl’s fittings, lines and oil cooler ensure a steady flow of oil to the 3.8 liter V6 under all conditions. The Gogogear Racing Genesis Coupe will also feature Ground Control suspension tuning with ARK Performance shocks, springs, coilovers and QA1 bearings. A light weight Spec racing clutch will increase reliability and help with quick and direct shifts of the stock close ratio six-speed manual transmission. At each corner, StopTech brakes, Hawk racing pads, Konig lightweight wheels and BF Goodrich R1 street legal race tires with aluminum light weight Gorilla lugs and HR spacers will ensure proper grip with the road. “The BF Goodrich R1 tires are a key ingredient towards achieving the 1.4 Gs of cornering force that we are aiming for,” said Arsham. Additionally, an Optima Battery was installed to ensure reliable starting and electrical power and was relocated to the rear with the help of a Taylor Vertex kit for improved weight balance.

On the exterior, Gogogear Racing will increase the aerodynamics of the vehicle by adding an APR rear wing and an ARK Performance body kit. To lighten the car and to lower the center of gravity, a carbon fiber roof replaces the original steel roof. The exterior will be treated to a set of eye-catching, custom Gogogear.com graphics using Oracal products.

Inside, the Genesis Coupe will be gutted and include Sparco race seats and seat belts, a full custom Metric Motorsports roll cage, a SPA Techniques fire suppression system and a two-way radio to further ready the car for its racing debut. A RacePak IQ3 data logger dash supplies critical information and lap times to the driver. A Linear Logic Scan Gauge II further notifies the driver of secondary engine parameters. The interior will be treated to Dupli Color’s Daytona Yellow paint job to match the exterior. All work on the car by the Gogogear Racing members will be carried out using Ironclad Performance wear and gloves.
