SSR or CCW SP600

[KNG SNKE]

Ok I went to put the SP600's on my car today and all didn't go as planned. The rear rims need a spacer on them due to the big brake kit. The wheel bolted up but it touched as it was sitting there. No biggie, I can but a super small spacer there.

I am at a loss whether to keep the SSR wheels (sizes 18/18), or put the CCW SP600 on there (sizes 19/20).

Keep in mind the photos are on stock suspension right after it was jacked up so it did not settle yet.

Positives
SSR have a nice meaty rear tire

SP600 front rims look bad ass

Negatives
SSR are only 18's
SP600 rear tire is super small, looks strange to me


So I ask your help. Help me decide which set is going on the car and which set I am selling.

eh, I'm not a fan of wheel spacers...never have been. but I guess if it's a small one they should be fine. I like the SP600s. look good. JMHO

It will be 1/8 or less. The wheels bolt up, they just touch the calipers. I hate spacers as well.

Hey big foot! Lower that hooptie!.

600s all the way brother!

[BlackSnake99]

What lift kit do you have on that thing?

[KNG SNKE]

Send me some springs!

The suspension was just jacked up, didn't settle in the short time the wheels were on the car. I plan on lowering on springs or caps, not both up here in RI. Eventually both. The front rims raised the car 1 inch roughly but it wasn't settled. Once I ride around and the suspension settles ill figure what lowering aid to use.

I like both.



Lowered.

You are a photoshop genius!

[AUSTIN]

De-badged and front marker tinted.

[KNG SNKE]

Will get a tinted marker eventually. no debadging though.

[Red Snake]

SP600s for sure. But definitely lower that puppy.


Looks good!

I got a message from someone on here saying he had no clearance issues with his rear wheels and Daves bbk. Wonder why mine is touching? It definitely was touching, ever so slightly. Only tested one side but definitely touching.

CCW and lowered = WIN!

Cc dub ya!

So I am wondering if I am going to have issues with lowering the car because I have to use a 1/8 spacer in the rear. Anyone have an idea?

[Red Snake]

I run 1/4 spacers on mine all the time. I need the spacers when I am running the 01 stocker wheels and I just leave them on with the IForged wheels (don't have to-I checked, just want to).

Ok so on yours with 1/4 spacers, 20 inch wheels, eibach and caps and you don't rub? That makes me feel better.

[twinturboterror]

You're not going to rub with invos damnit!!!!
The car will look great on springs and caps. You will not regret it John.
Now if only you knew someone with springs????

Austin, shop me some astras 19/20 graphite centers. Yep, just like before.
Who thinks Austin's got skills? I do!
