Those videos are taken by a girl who works there to do this. She's very nice. She's been there like 9 months maybe. When I was there a month ago I kind of coached her to take not only the normal inspection videos (of which I sometimes take a small clip from to post) but also more of a beauty roll video I can post. That's why the videos are now a little slower, more dynamic, show the concavity from different angles, etc. She does a good job.

That said, that was taken on her phone and had some filter on it. If you think people use filters in the US, spend some time on Douyin. I made her redo it because that one was so bad. This is the correct video of Ronin's wheels (below). They are next to each other in my camera roll and I stupidly posted the wrong one without really looking at what I posted. Thank you for pointing it out and apologies that you spent time comparing them, etc.

The correct video of his wheels:

Here's anther video of them actually. He was showing me the concavity and fitment. I hope he doesn't mind me posting but you can see the color is nothing like the weird tone in the video from my original post (and this is in his garage which wouldn't be as intensely lit as the inspection area where the videos are taken, so they do look a little darker here).

Again, really sorry for the confusion.

It is a good opportunity though to point out, as you did, that lighting plays a huge role [...]

Thanks for clearing that up! I’m color blind so I have no confidence in my ability to interpret colors properly, it’s why I had to break out photoshop lol
