Vaughn Gittin Jr. buys a Bronco Raptor

[Losy]

Surprised that so many people are assumed to know who this guy is...

If you follow Mustang racing or the Bronco racing and the various reviews he has a lot of good content.

you are looking at the base bronco, Look here and you will see +18 for the Warthog >> https://www.rtrvehicles.com/collect...s-2022/products/rtr-evo-6-bronco-raptor-wheel

On their website though the EVO6 wheels have ONLY 2 offsets - 0 and 30. 30 is for Non-SAS and 0 is for SAS. Just FYI.

These wheels do look incredible. I reached out to RTR to inquire about the weight and was told they are 22 pounds. I will def need to confirm this because at this price point, they are def NOT 22 pounds wheels. Also, they are +18 offset which is very good if you do NOT want poke. Most aftermarket wheels are 0 offset.

So 17x9, +18 offset, hub-centric and 22 pounds (will cofirm when my set arrives) ... exactly what I am looking for.

I will pickup a set soon and may even pick 2 sets. One for my F150 Raptor and one for my Warthog, if it ever gets scheduled.

This is by far the best pic I have ever seen posted of the warthog. Perhaps the wheels has something to do with it.

Whats the weight of stock wheels?

I got the base wheels on my bronco raptor for the hopes of getting much sexier wheels but also lighter, as reduced unsprung weight is one of the best things to spend money on.

He is a BIG in the drift scene. He has only been in off-roading like in the last 5 years BUT he is good enough to race for Ford performance.

here's him drifting a 1000HP MachE

stock wheel is 29-30 pounds while the beadlocks locks are 32-33 pounds.

If this wheel is really 22 then it is a good amount of weight reduction

I noticed the video skipped ahead when trying to climb the rock pile and started you on top coming down, did you have issues getting up there? ;-)

That would be amazing

Not seeing on the website however that theyre 22lbs

I sent them a PM and asked and was told it is 22. My reply after I was told it was 22 pounds >> If the 17x9 is truly 22 pounds then you are missing a valuable marketing tool. You need to post this on your site.

Lets see if they confirm. If so, great wheel.

 

[Raptor911]

the base bronco and warthog are 2 different bolt patterns .. 6x139.7 vs 6x135

gotcha - for the raptor.

He is big in the drift scene, okay. Is the drift scene big, LOL!? I thought it was abandoned in 2006 when everyone realized what a stupid movie Tokyo Drift was. It's the "ski ballet" of the auto industry.

 

[Raptor911]

I will be picking up a set in 2 weeks and will weigh them and let everyone know.

Lets see if they confirm. If so, great wheel.

BRaptor has its own product page with +18 offsets only. EVO 6 for BRaptor can be found HERE

Man those EVO6 wheels........TRULY the BEST ones I have seen for the Bronco thus far. Satin Charcoal. Perfect! It even makes the Braptor look even BETTER!@!#!@#!@
