My wheels came in yesterday!!! Check 'em out!

After about a 3 month wait... my SSR GP-O Decolte Evolutions finally got here! I was REALLY pleasantly surprised by how light these wheels are! The pic is of the rear... 18x11... Haven't weighed them... but felt very light to me.

Have a look and tell me what you think. check out the size of the lip!










If you see red X's click here and scroll all the way down.. the pics are at the bottom and on page 2.

Very nice! Those are what I originally wanted ... but couldn't get 'em. I wanted gunmetal spokes though.

Thanks Boostd....

I originally wanted gunmetal TE-37s to go with the silver car. But Wasn't sure how long I would like the Gunmetal look. So I went with a more conservative look. I did think about getting the spokes powdercoated black... Maybe in the future.

Neo... Hopefully I won't! Not for what they cost!!!!

Thanks guys.

Yeah the J-spec SSRs are a pain to get. I had to wait 3 months to get them here from Japan. But well worth the wait in my opinion.

Thanks again for the compliments. I'll be sure to post some pics when I get them mounted.
