WTB: ONE 17x9" SSR Integral, Plus size Race tire question
Ok, I'm coming a little late to the party apparently but I'm looking for ONE 17x9" SSR Integral with a 45mm offset. I have 3 17x9" Integrals right now, I just need ONE more. Tire Rack is sold out, any other sources?
Currently I'm running my 93 R1 in ASP very lightly modded. DP, CB, GAB Rs w/Eibach springs. The competition has been creeping up on me this year and I want to do another upgrade to "buy" back 1st place. I'm running 245/45/16 Kuhmos on stock wheels, I'm thinking of upgrading to 255/40/17 Kuhmos.
Anyone switch from the 16" to 17" R-compound rubber and notice a difference? Would this be the best place to spend my money? I'll be needing tires soon, the larger size is only $5/tire more. I could always use more power but that will be more expensive...
The Integrals are currently my street wheels (8" in front, 9" in rear, 1 extra) but I've got some FM-5's to mount the street tires too now.
Thanks,
Jeff

Yeah, the 255/40-17 V700s would be the ticket...I have an exta SSR 9 x 17, 45-mm offset IA2, with a 255/40-17 Yokohama AVS I...I use it as my full size spare, and do rotate the spare into service with the other 4 that are on the car.
BTW I noticed the Rack is closing out the Yokohama AVS I. The 255/40-17 is $97 each. As a warning to you all, I'm probably going to 5 of these AVS I's, so if you're thinking about new "cheap" 255/40-17 tires, you'd better get on the horn with the Rack before I buy up their stock
