Fuel Wheels are Nice, But You Should Go Old School and Look Into American Racing Wheels

There are any number of wheel manufacturers who have been in business a relatively short period of time, in wheel years that is. And while many people scramble to buy sets of Fuel wheels, Moto Metal wheels and Hostile wheels, there are plenty of reasons to go with wheels from a manufacturer that has been around for a very long time. Like American racing Wheels for example.

Owning a set of American Racing wheels is like owning an album collection that you listen to all of the time, dating a girl who wears bell-bottom jeans or sporting a mullet. What we are saying is that American Racing wheels have been producing wheels that never go out of style for several decades.

And if you think vinyl records, bell-bottom jeans and mullets are out of style, think again.

Vinyl

Still listening to MP3s or other digital music? Why, that’s adorable! You probably think you know more about music than everybody else as well. If you have dumped your MP3 and use your smartphone to stream music instead, you are still a tool.

Listen up folks; vinyl never died when John Lennon did, it is still very much alive and thriving, for good reasons. Let’s take a trip to a record store to see why you should ditch digital.

Better Music

No, you won’t find better music on vinyl, but your taste in music will improve when you start buying albums.

Look at it this way, you will never find Justin Bieber or Nickelback on vinyl. That is reason enough alone to ditch the digital format.

What you will find on vinyl are shelves of Led Zeppelin, scores of The Pixies and a section devoted to old school death metal filled with Cannibal Corpse, Obituary and Kreator.

Maybe you aren't all into the death metal scene, that’s fine because there are plenty of Metallica and Megadeth albums that need good homes.

Better Sound

This is not up for debate: Vinyl sounds better than digital, hands down. Most of the music you listen to is in a lousy format where details are lost and quality compromised. The audio needs to be compressed so it’s small enough to travel with you.

Pick up Benefit by Jethro Tull and listen to the song 'Teacher,' it has layers that give it a sound that transcends music.

Buying a Record is an Experience

There is something amazing about buying an album. Some of it comes from the actual search for what you want, but even more comes from the album artwork, the sleeve filled with lyrics and liner notes or the feel of the vinyl record tucked inside.

Bell-Bottom Jeans

If your girlfriend wears bell-bottom jeans, you should be proud. She probably also owns a bunch of records. Like American Racing wheels, bell-bottom jeans never went out of style, and never will.

Figure Flattering

That extra volume of material at the bottom makes your legs look longer and flatters your body shape, regardless what type of body you have. Go watch a few episodes of That 70s Show and you will see.

Stand Out

In a sea of women wearing skinny jeans that all have the same basic look, a woman wearing bell-bottom jeans is sure to stand out.

You Love to Accessorize

You have a pair of wooden earrings and heeled sandals? Great, they pair perfectly with your bell-bottom jeans. In fact, you would be hard-pressed to find something that clashes with your bell-bottom jeans.

If you own records, date a girl who wears bell-bottom jeans, then you gotta go for the trifecta and sport a mullet. Seriously.

Mullets Demand Respect

One of the baddest men in history, Chuck Norris, sported a mullet in his prime. And nobody messes with Chuck, nobody.

Mullets are Practical

You don't need an engineering degree to see that mullets offer the perfect balance of business and party. You cannot have one and neglect the other, you want a perfect work, party balance.

Mullets Protect Your Neck

Sport a mullet and you will never again have to slather sunscreen on your neck or concern yourself with sunburn on the neck, Ouch!

So there you have it; all the reasons you need to sport a mullet, buy records, date a girl who wears bell-bottom jeans and buy a set of American Racing wheels.
