The ultimate wheel for P5

[NJP5Guy]

I found the ultimate wheel. Its the SSR Comp-C in Euro black. for a 17x7.5 w/ 48mm offset the weight is under 13.75lbs. And its forged for that added strength. The only draw back is that SSR isn't selling them in the states until next year.....man we get the raw end of things. They will be about $380 or so each. Can't wait to get mine for the P5. SSR has agood selection of sizes and offsets for this wheel plus colors.

as long as you don't go wider than a 205....you will just make it.

Thats actually not too bad of a price, nice wheels though.

SSR doesn't sell the type-c's in the states? Its a pretty popular rim out here.

 

[NJP5Guy]

They sold the wheels to resellers but come next year they are moving to the states. horay for us.

You could by mine which are essentially the same as far as specs go...

awesome! ill have to start savin money for em... have to see what that champion bronze looks like... that picture doesnt show color too well.

or is there a certain color thats not anodized on there? cause i currently have titanium bronze FN01R-C's and the anodized bronze color is peeling up... they're a year old and have many miles on them, lots of rock chips and curb time.

so i was wondering if there was a certain color that wasnt powder coated on and is just the natural color of the rim. that way there would be no chance of peeling.

anodized/powder coat... whats the difference?
