mad old sku wheels corey

 

yep. i own that second set..lol...and i don't even know what the hell the name is haha.... ugly but original and some what rare. i believe the second one accepts a center plate/cap of some sort..the only tag i see on the inner barrel is the old 6.5j and A offset decal and of couse, the old "speed star" stamp on the back of the hub....

 

Wow. These are amazing man. Very nice. I'll try to hunt down some info on Japanese pages.

 

in for info on the first set. I love wheels with lots of spokes like that.

 

a couple more pics..maybe the kanji after the A and 6.5 " sticker might be a clue but i doubt it

 

Nice. That actually isn't Kanji. It is Katakana . Never the less, it says "Type." So Speed Star Type A?

After searching I found these...They are also type A. So apparently this doesnt really help. I'm finding a bunch of different old-school SSR's that are also type A. I guess as the was posted above, the type has to do with the offset.

Oh yeah...duh.. I used to study katakana for 2yrs in high school...lol. Yeah, makes sense... type A tells us the offset which is probably more less 10. When I saw the yahoo japan listing for the first set pictured, the title and body stated the rim as an ssr 'speeder fin' but I'm unsure if that was just a general description or what .... :shrugs:

 

Thanks for all the replies, guys. Still searching for the name. Man, I wish somebody would chime in w/an older ssr catalog.

 

Bro. I literally went through one of my Japanese parts catalogs/classifieds to see if I could find this ****, but nothing. I'll show you pics of one of my catalogs later. I literally looked through 1000+ pics! I'm really into figuring this **** out though.

If you have the original seller's info on Yahoo Japan, I can contact him and find out. We will get to the bottom of this

 

damn..unfortuantely, i don't have the link of the first (4)set of wheels but.... i have the link of the guy i bought the last pair of white ssr's fins from (second pic).....


http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co...35748 this is the link of the auction i just won to complete my (4)set..damn, it was pure luck finding 2 pairs of these.

 

I searched through magazines and google. Couldn't find anything.

 

wow is the 2nd set 4x100?
