Does anyone know of any specific differences between the SSR SP-1 Professors sold by Tirerack and the Japanese model sold by gruppe-s.com

I read some posts from a year ago but they appeared to be more rumor than fact.

I was thinking of purchasing the JDM model because they have more choices in size.
18x7 with + 49 offset.
18x8.5 with + 68 offset.

Besides black they also sell a color called SBC-Super Black Coat. I can't seem to find a picture of the SBC.

thanks

 

The wheels we will carry are hub centric and do come with center caps. The JPM wheels will have neither. Plus we will be handling the wheels and if there is a problem you can get another wheel sooner.
If you want a specific offset they offer we can get the wheel. It may take longer but we should be able to get it if they make it.
Just let me know if I can help.

 

Tire rack also sales a different color black..... when you go to look at the wheel, it shows the silver and other black.

 

THe other color you're talking about is this....

 

So is that considered black chrome or is ebony silver the same as Super black coat ? That color is sick nice job!!

 

That looks like the super black coat finish.

 

SLO S2k we need more pics of those wheels please!!

 

Those are really narrow sizes. WIDER WIDER WIDER!!! WHO'S WITH ME?! It's a shame you guys are soo conservative with the sizes and offsets. It's such a top dollar rim, you guys should go all out.

 

Just got off the phone with TR. They are carrying the wheel as follows:

17x8 +49 20lbs
17x9.5 +55 21.6 lbs


18x8 +49 weight unknown
18x9.5 +55

 

Here you go...these are the 18x8 and 18x9 w/ 225/40-255/35
