What do the SSR GT3 wheels look like? How much cash?
And finally who makes them?

SSR makes them, and they're $529-544 for 18x8.5 fronts and $559-574 for 18x10 rears at the Tire Rack. They're available in a regular polished finish, white finish, and a darker satin finish. Pictured is the regular finish.

Very nice car Crazyrx7! I love the color and like the accents you've done to the car. It's not tacky at all and looks very clean in my opinion. Looks like you're doing something right

I haven't shown it at all. The last time I was supposed to put it in a show a drunk driver ran into it in the parking lot and caused $3000 damage. Thank god I caught the *******. Down the road I would like to put it in a show and see what happens. Maybe next year.

I'm also fortunate to have a well paying job. I guess it payed off to stay in school. I guess my parents were right about something. This is all coming to a screaching halt as I am getting married next month and building a house next year. I guess the turbo upgrade is going to have to wait (sigh). Thanks for the comments. I was looking at buying new rims but I haven't found any that really stick out that I like so until then I will just stick to these.

Good guys always finish first! Great looking car.

Man Rich, you sure are into Fine detail. At first I thought u meant my car was the Maranello... . That was at the Mariott off Cobb Parkway in Atlanta, think it was an integra or something. I did happen to see the 550's and it's friends at Ferrari of Atlanta on the way home though...

No, you were right the first time. Your FD looks like a 550 in that pic with the way the light is hitting it. I guess that makes me a fruit

while we're discussing wheel choices, have you thought about Fikse or HRE, crazyrx7?

I looked into the SSR rims and its going to cost me $4000 CND just to get the rims. Thats a lot of money. I like the Blitz rims but the problem is up here in Canada there isn't too many places to buy these types of rims so if I order them, i'm stuck with them. It would be nice just to be able to put certain rims on the car and see what they would look like before you buy. Also the side skirts are Knight Sport and the reason why it looks so clean is because they have been molded into the body.

The exact paint code is Lamborghini Diablo Orange. Tri-stage paint, hence why it costs so much.

But if $4000 CDN is too much for you, don't even bother pricing those

Very nice car

****, I'm in the Marine Corps and I can afford a 7, just not the repairs, LOL. Luckily I have a slick record, and no tickets or anything, so insurance is decent for me =) But the cost to repair... ouch. Car Looks great, Love the feed front end, wish I had the $2100 to fork out for the new one, I need to get a kit on mine, engine first though. Love the color too, how much did that paintwork cost? I want to go Charcoal grey, or something similar to that orange. NIce though, very nice.
