Default Opinions on SSR wheels please.

First off, i would like to clarify that these wheels are not for my car. (hopefully would like to get a Z car of my own sometime soon).

I want to get a good friend of mine (been friends for over 10 years), some wheels for his car. He has a brand new 370Z, and i want to get him some wheels for his birthday.

I saw these wheels online, and i think they look great, and i have a hookup on some SSR stuff.

What is the consensus on this forum about the style/color of these wheels and recommended offsets for the 370Z.

Any advice and positive help is welcome!

They are really nice wheels. I would probably try to stay close to the stock offset, maybe just a little less, as they will be pushing out a 1/4" more anyway. You will also have to take into consideration whether spacers will be required and how much that will alter things.

Those wheels are the bomb-diggity! Anything that looks like a Volk GT-U is good in my book.

How about the SSR Type-F?



Bad picture, but you get the idea. Just throwing something out there.

They are nice wheels at their price point. You are a generous person.

Does anyone have any more pictures of that red G35 with the silver MS1s? Any other good pictures of 370Z/350Zs/G coupes with these wheels on just for referrence?

I try to be generous with extremely close friends, especially ones that have helped me out in many ways in life.

I figure what goes around comes around.

I am pretty sure you are wrong. SSR is japanese made, and has a rich history of making lightweight, strong, and quality wheels. From what i know, that is one of the reason why they have BMW's "M" Colors.

we ordered a set of the MS1'S for one of our customers with a G35. They should be arriving on may 8th. I'll post pics once we get them installed.

MS1'S, one of my favorite wheels, IMHO, Clean mesh wheels will never get old and they look nice on any car you put them on
