just seen this ssr professor sp1 wheel and i really like it. do they make an offset for the fd? i first seen them on a white mr2 here is the link for everyone to see. http://www.teamrice.org/tr4.0/index1024.html . the wheels have huge lips on them, if the offset is good for the fd and still be able to get a good lip on them i think i might buy these instead of the volk gt-n's. thanks in advance for the help..

 

im sure they do. its a popular wheel in japan and the GP sports FD runs the ssr professor sp1 wheels

 

Yes, that wheel has a large number of size/offset combinations. It's not an officially imported wheel, so you can't just get it from anywhere. I think Chuck at Rotary Extreme might be able to get them for you.

Unfortunately, it appears that SSRs Japan site is down right now -- www.speedstar.co.jp

You should also look at the Integral GT2, only at TireRack.

Look nice

 

I plan on owning those wheels SOON . . . the GP rx7 with SBC rims convinced me of that!

 

Eurosport in Hawaii is one of the distributors for SSR in the US. The other is Tirerack, but they do not carry the full SSR line (like the SP1). Eurosport handles the wheels that Tirerack does not.

Z1 Auto (http://www.z1auto.com/) in NY carries or can get those wheels. I was quoted ~$2K for a 17x8.5 (front) and 17x9.5 (rear) both +43 offsets for my FD. They're nice looking wheels, but they're heavy too.

 

thanks for the responces, i am going to check into pricing and avalibility..

 

I think rotary extreme carry it too. A thread fre months ago:

We are one of the larger JDM SSR importers around, gimme a call when you are done price shopping and ready to buy - I'll beat anyones price

 

bicuspid , sounds good i will be taking you up on that offer. i have found a few places that carry the wheels. hopefully we can work something out.

 

Chuck, at rotary extreme can get these rims. He's getting me some 18x10.5" fronts & 18x12" rear. Their running me about $2900 and come in SBC ( black Chrome). I would talk to him.
