SSR CV01 are very similar to the HRE. I like the way the spokes are on this wheel more than the HRE.

But SSR wheels are no where near the quality and strength as HRE. Ive seen race cars run them and been to their open houses. Comparing SSR to HRE is like comparing Honda with a ZONDA. Even volk wheels are not up to the level of quality as HRE, close but not quite there.

I think the guy from the tire shop is going to have an orgasm when they arrive. BTW, I finally made the decision to go with the 19" Satin Black 303M. I am going with stock size so I can swap wheels with my OEM Rays if I eventually start tracking my Z.

Not that I'm saying HREs aren't any good but SSRs are also run on race cars.. Sooooo they are probably just as strong..

The approach I took when trying to decide on wheels was first to find "the look" I liked and then wanted to make sure that they would perform (feel) as well as my stock rims. Since my stock rims are Rays, it was a higher bar than usual.

I wasn't opposed to any other brand and think that all that were recommended in this thread are of high quality.

Thanks for the recommendations and opinions!

I am glad that we all have a little bit different tastes for sure, which makes for a variety of cool Zs to look at.

Ordered Satin Black 303Ms in the stock NISMO size with the carbon fiber HRE center caps. It is a 4 week wait since they are truly custom. They will have a fresh set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports when I put them on for the summer.

I am very excited...stay tuned for pics
