Transformed Auto into a Giant Replica Toy with Hot Wheels-Like Wheels
Concept Car Studio Introduces Retro-Inspired U-HOT Wheels
Concept Car Studio, a company known for its work in the automotive, TV/film, and fashion industries, has unveiled a new product that is set to shake up the aftermarket wheel market – the U-HOT wheels.
Inspired by the Ultra Hot series of Hot Wheels toys from the 1980s, the U-HOT wheels aim to offer a unique alternative to conventional aftermarket wheels. The design, with its nostalgic Hot Wheels aesthetic, is sure to evoke memories and add a touch of retro charm to any vehicle.
The wheels will be available in a wide range of sizes, from 14 inches to 28 inches, making them suitable for numerous vehicle types. Whether you're driving a small hatchback or a large SUV, there's a U-HOT wheel to fit your ride.
Interested buyers can place a custom order for the U-HOT wheels by sending their wheel specifications to [email protected]. The ordering process is not bound by minimum quantities, allowing for a more personalised approach. However, pricing and lead time for production and delivery will vary per order, with an estimated wait time of six to eight weeks.
Brent Lawson, the man behind Concept Car Studio, came up with the idea of creating a life-size version of the Ultra Hots after stumbling upon an old Reddit thread. Lawson stated that the company's goal is to change the texture of modern car culture by adding to its history through artistic collaboration.
While some may argue that the U-HOT wheels are unconventional, Lawson welcomes the criticism. He mentioned that Concept Car Studio isn't trying to create cool wheels for luxury cars like BMW or Porsche, but rather, they aim to break up the monotony in the market where large multispoke wheels or big face monoblock styles have been dominating the trends.
The U-HOT wheels have already made an impression, with a set fitted to a GR86, resulting in a unique appearance. They have also been rendered on diverse vehicles such as a Barbie-pink Ford Maverick and an EF-chassis Honda Civic hatchback from the end of the '80s.
However, Lawson acknowledges that not every 30-year-old wheel may have the same structural integrity as something built this year. But Concept Car Studio isn't trying to change history, but add to it. They are creating wheels that are suitable for cars with a wedge silhouette, such as '80s supercars or obscure ones like the Vector.
In summary, the U-HOT wheels are a unique offering for those looking for a distinctive retro-inspired wheel that stands out from typical aftermarket options. If you're interested in placing an order, don't hesitate to reach out to Concept Car Studio at [email protected].
These wheels, reflecting a nostalgic Hot Wheels aesthetic, are not only suitable for various vehicles but also aim to add a touch of '80s charm to one's lifestyle, breaking the norm of conventional aftermarket wheels in the car culture. This revolutionary product, available from Concept Car Studio, promises to elevate your car's style, complementing both vintage and modern home-and-garden settings that emphasize a retro lifestyle.
