I hear ya, what I really wanted was SSR's in the Moto spec 18x8/9 but this was the closest I could find and the whole set was just a lil more than one SSR wheel.

It can be done, but there will always going to be people jumping on the bandwagon. Imitation is the highest form of flattery as they say.

I went with a classic wheel and went custom. Hopefully I stay the only one with my wheels.

More photos coming soon, still got to finish cleaning up this afternoon. I went with this small stagger in tire size to try and keep from getting understeer with a 225/255 setup. Also it will be a while before i go FI and have serious power so this is enough grip to keep it fun, i can always go with a 255/35 later on the back if neccessary.

The DW's are a dream so far, i had 235/40 Nitto Motivo's all around which were very good for an all season but the 225/40 up front and more summer oriented design has definitely sharpened things up. It's only been a day but the ride quality and noise are just as good as the all season which is great also.


Thank You...
I think these wheels are for me!

Got mine through discount tire direct, they will tell you they don't fit but they obviously do they will want to send you +40 front. You could actually run the 9's all around pretty easily.

I would do +38 or 40 on the rear but front looks good.
