I know they are the same thing as the tirerack carries (SSR Comps), but there is a JDM size that tirerack can't seem to get. If anyone knows of a vender who imports them, let me know.

Thanks.

Discount tire. If they still sell them new you should still be able to get what every size you want through discount.

I don't remember Discount Tire ever carrying SSRs.

I got my set from Leo.

 

Discount tire got me VOLKS

 

Leo cannot get them anymore.

And Discount tire can probably get sVolks through Mackin. There is no US supplier of the JDM SSRs (like Mackin is to Volk).

Tirerack gets SSR because they have SSR make them directly for them and imports them directly.

Hes on aim right now.

 

try Gruppe-S or Bulletproof

 

15x9 perhaps?

Discount Tire/ America's Tire can get just about ANY wheel... seriously. They can even get 15x7.5 cp035's.....

I will bet $ they can get the jdm ssr's as well too.....

Can you still get the gold versions? 17x7.5 5x114.3 @ 42-43mm offset

 

tirerack is the ONLY supplier of SSR wheels in the US

You can get the gold and white versions elsewhere - if you're willing to pay

 

i have the gunmetal/machiened liped ones....the export models. i was told the Only place to get them was from tirerack...and i searched and searched for other places

 

sorry up from the dead....was looking for anyone who imports them also

 

http://www.tirerack.com

 

visted tirerack and wanted to know what was the difference between the ssr comp-x and ssr competition? i can't tell any visual difference besides center caps....the comp-x only comes in 15's i believe and the comps come in 17 and 18...anyone know where to get these in 16's???

 

i had the export model SSR competition...they were 16". but now member Casey has them.

<u>Are</u> they the same thing?

I have Type C's and they're 15x7 +38. I don't think that's what Tirerack carries in the SSR, is it?

Or is that the size you were looking for?

 

Since we have a bunch of SSR experts in here, evidently, I have a dumb question.

I have never used my Type C's on the track, yet.

The hubcentric devices seem to be wires and metal rings.

How the hell does that work?

What's the point in the wires?

It looks like the hubcentric metal rings by themselves would work just like the Kosei hubcentric rings...so what's the wires for?

 

my SSR's had MIllie Miglia hubcentric rings...

the wires went behind the rings to hold them in place...

i took mine out a soon as i got them and never once had a problem in any driving situation

 

up!
