Soon JDM SSR Wheels

Yeah~~~
After 8 weeks of waiting I finally see my wheels coming to the office. The pick is not really the best of what I want because things get crazy when everytime I ask my wife to chip-in some "idea & fund".

Ignore the Paul guy in the pic... he is just a wheel molester from local 300z group.

My guess is those weren't cheap!
I'm realllly close to forking out the cash for some rare JDM wheels, but I can't decide on what kind.

It was done two hours after shop closed. Thx to wheel and brake techs stay over-time to paint calipers and put up the wheels. I also washed the car during late evening. I will post 1 pic tomorrow. (.... ok 2 pics )


Thanks to all staffs at Tanaba & More-Japan.com to process the wheels!

16"... with different offsets on front and back, and on 205/50/16 Bridgestone RE750.


Well, the front and rear wheels have same off set, but the trick is on different center pieces to fake the "stagger" and "deeper lip" look at back. (thanks to James @ Tanabe).

It is a custom setup up and this a business mai-do back to Tanabe.

Beats me! I could not find anything even in JDM dealer's manual either.

UPS labeled 19 lbs... the box is heavy duty grade and with multi-layers of cardboards for international freight protection... my guess 15 is lbs for each wheel.

It is 3-pcs forged in 16" and I think 15 lbs worth its durability on trac. I drive granny-speedy only....

Me either... but I love it and hate it at same time.

JDM Old school = classic look wheel in gold....

Actually there was a fight between me and my JDM wife. She asked my company to import this wheel for the Yaris but I refused because it max at 14" only.

They got all 7 soft-powder colors... really good JDM looking. I am thinking to get a set when her term comes. I will host a group-buy if 10 GO sets. LOL!
