the website doesn't have any info on them. you may have to email ssr for specs.

SSR's are awesome but if they were only as strong as their competitors like Volks I could then justify their price...

FWIW, apparently SSR went through a major restructuring few years ago, new management and they supposedly overhauled their production process. The SSR wheels of today are supposed to be much stronger than those of earlier years but I'd rather not be the guinea pig.

My 19" 3-piece Gt-10's are holding up great and they have been hitting some pretty harsh pot holes. Still rolling smooth with no damage. I don't know about their one piece wheels though.

SSR even makes the Veilside 18"x10 3-piece wheels I have for my Datsun 240-Z.

They also made the 18"x13" 3-piece wheels I have. All working great.

I bought them years ago to use with a wide body kit from the 70's for my 240-z (s30).

Hmmm, how to post a pic while on my iPhone. ? I give up...posting via laptop,lol.

Here is the reason for the wide wheels......

Its definitely different from the average Datsun Z for sure. It is a period correct 'Factory Works" kit.

Mine won't be this sexy black car, as mine is already restored in a different color that I'm sticking with. But the kit is identical.
