SSR MK-IIIS & SSR MK-II R – JDM Wheels

January 2, 2014 admin Leave a comment

SSR MK-IIIS & SSR MK-II R - JDM Wheels — The SSR MK-IIIS & SSR MK-II R from Speed Star Racing were JDM Wheels based on older wheels from SSR. The SSR MK-IIIS is a design based off the olderSSR MKIII with its bigger spokes and alternating smaller 4 spokes. The updated version of the SSR MKIIIS has a full face on a reverse lip as opposed to the older small face on stepped lip. The SSR MK3 are pictured on a Honda Civic EG Series. The SSR MK-IIR has four rounded spokes also in a reverse lip, as opposed to the older SSR MKII which has four spokes but squared matched with a step lip. The SSR MK2R pictures are on a Nissan Skyline R32. Interestingly, I wonder if The SSR MKI had a modernized Version.

SSR GPO & SSR Alcyber by Speed Star Racing – JDM Wheels

November 6, 2013 admin 1 Comment

JDM Wheels - SSR GPO & SSR Alcyber — JDM Wheels – SSR GPO & SSR Alcyber by Speed Star Racing. If you were an old school JDM Wheel Whore in the mid-late 90’s you have to know everyone wanted two wheels, the SSR GPO and the Racing Hart Type-C; here is a rare wheel scan of the SSR GP-O and SSR Alcyber. Some people have referred them as SSR GP Omega due to the greek symbol, but that is actually a Theta symbol to make it the SSR GP Theta. The SSR GP-O is a two piece mesh wheel with a faux centerlock design really being the center cap; a very popular design at the time. The SSR Alcyber is the 5 spoke brother to the SSR GPO also with the faux centerlock center cap. Both wheels state sizing from 16×7 to 18×9.5, but I have seen 16×6.5 and 18×10 from the Speed Star Racing factory. Now does anyone else see similarities in the SSR wheels GPO and the Racing Hart Type C; or the SSR wheels Alcyber and Racing Hart Tracer? Well just about every JDM wheel manufacturer had a mesh and 5 spoke design at this time.

BBS RS on Nissan Skyline R32 Skyline GT-R VSpec 2 – Classy Godzilla

February 23, 2012 admin Leave a comment

BBS RS on Nissan Skyline R32 Skyline GT-R — This R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R on sittin’ on BBS RS is probably the Classiest R32 GT-R I have set my eyes on. The silver on silver adds to the classiness. Look at that reflection the BBS RS’s are gleaming to the asphalt. This car’s look is timeless, this GT-R will always look good!

“They’re BBS RS 17 by 9 all around. With spacers they’re around -5 offset.”
– “The J” on gtr.co.uk

These next few pictures are with the car raiseed about half an inch. Apparently the owner had an issue with axles.

The fitment with these BBS RS’s is tight, you can see how close the tires are to the wheel wells.

Classy!

These are some older pictures with no center caps on the BBS RS, still looks legit! I believe the ride height is even lower than the previous pictures.

No tire stretching on these BBS RS’s, these tires look meaty and they mean business!

Specs
Nissan Skyline R32 Skyline GT-R Vspec 2
