Meguiar’s and TJ Hunt Set to Unveil Ferrari 488 GT3 EVO Livery at Formula DRIFT Long Beach

2026-04-08T17:21:59+00:00

Meguiar’s is bringing something special to the opening round of the 2026 Formula DRIFT PRO Championship this weekend in Long Beach, California. The company will officially reveal a new anniversary-themed livery for TJ Hunt’s Ferrari 488 GT3 EVO, marking another major moment in Meguiar’s ongoing 125th anniversary celebration. The car first appeared publicly at SEMA Show 2025 in its striking red paint finish, but the original plan always included a custom wrap created by legendary automotive designer Jon Sibal.

Now, Formula DRIFT fans will finally get to see the completed version in person during the Streets of Long Beach event on April 10-11. TJ Hunt is also scheduled to appear at the Meguiar’s booth on Saturday from 1:00 to 1:40 PM, where fans can meet him, grab limited-edition Leen pins featuring the Ferrari, and check out exclusive giveaway items. Alongside the car reveal, Meguiar’s will have its team of detailing experts on-site to offer car care tips and product advice for enthusiasts looking to preserve the finish on everything from daily drivers to show cars.

Meguiar’s originally supported Formula DRIFT during the series’ early years and returned as a sponsor in 2025. The unveiling of Hunt’s Ferrari 488 GT3 EVO serves as both a celebration of the brand’s long history in automotive culture and a showcase of one of the most recognizable builds in the drift world today.

Toyota Shows Off Custom FJ Cruiser Concepts with Retro and Off-Road Flair

2026-03-24T18:35:58+00:00

Toyota is leaning into nostalgia and customization with a series of unique builds based on the revived Toyota FJ Cruiser—but there’s a catch: you won’t be able to buy any of them. Instead, these one-off concepts are meant to inspire the aftermarket scene, showing just how versatile the new compact off-roader can be.

Leading the lineup is a retro-inspired build that pays tribute to classic Land Cruiser heritage, complete with vintage styling cues and rugged off-road touches. On the opposite end, Toyota also created a more street-focused version with a lowered stance and sportier details, while another concept leans fully into off-road capability with added gear for serious trail use. There’s even a camper-style setup designed for overlanding, proving the FJ platform can adapt to just about any lifestyle.

While these builds highlight the potential of the new FJ Cruiser, availability will be limited to select global markets, meaning North American enthusiasts will have to admire from afar. Still, with Toyota openly encouraging customization, it’s likely only a matter of time before similar builds start popping up in the wild.

MID Wheels by RAYS Introduces the All-New D8 Off-Road Wheel

2026-02-03T16:34:15+00:00

MID Wheels by RAYS has officially unveiled the D8, a bold new off-road wheel designed to deliver serious presence—no matter the vehicle size. Launching in Spring 2026, the D8 blends rugged strength with a design that visually punches above its weight.

At the core of the D8’s look is its reversely curved dish face, which adds depth and makes the wheel appear larger and more aggressive than its actual diameter. The design was developed with surface strength in mind, giving it the durability required for modern 4×4 platforms while maintaining a clean, purposeful style. The result is a wheel that looks right at home on lifted trucks, SUVs, and off-road builds.

Adding to its tough personality, the D8 features bold cast lettering in the center section, a detail that reinforces its off-road DNA and makes it instantly recognizable. This is a wheel built to make a statement—whether parked or in motion.

The D8 is a cast one-piece monoblock wheel and will be offered in two finishes:

Barrel Black (BBK)
Black Clear / Machined Cut (BKM)

Each wheel comes complete with a center cap and air valve, making it ready to mount right out of the box.

TE37 30th Anniversary Release

2026-01-13T20:38:08+00:00

RAYS is celebrating a major milestone for one of the most iconic wheels in the performance world: the VOLK RACING TE37 is officially turning 30. Since its debut, the TE37 has built a reputation for doing everything enthusiasts want in a wheel—lightweight, strong, and motorsport-proven, while still looking right at home on everything from street builds to track cars.

Originally developed as a forged wheel built for serious performance, the TE37 quickly became a favorite thanks to its simple but timeless 6-spoke design and a strength-to-weight balance that drivers actually notice. Over the years, the TE37 has expanded into multiple versions and fitments, but the main idea has stayed the same: deliver real performance with a clean look that doesn’t age out.

For the 30th anniversary, RAYS is highlighting what makes the TE37 special—its long-running presence in both motorsports and tuner culture, and the fact that it’s still one of the most recognizable wheel designs out there decades later. In an industry where trends can come and go fast, the TE37 has stayed relevant because it continues to deliver where it counts: durability, performance, and a no-nonsense design that works on nearly anything.

The TE37 isn’t just a classic—it’s one of those rare parts that became a real cornerstone of modern car culture. Whether your goal is lap times, daily drivability, or clean fitment, the TE37 remains a go-to choice that still feels current today.

If you’ve been running TE37s for years, the 30th anniversary is a solid reminder of why they’ve earned legend status. And if you’re newer to the scene, this is basically the perfect excuse to understand why TE37s are still considered one of the gold standards in the forged wheel world.
