Default Luke: Questions about SSR GT3s

Could you answer the following questions?

1. Can you describe the satin finish color? Is it more like chrome, or more like the polished Y2K thin spokes? Or, something else? The picture on your website makes them look like a darker color.

2. Do tire sensors fit/work?

3. What are some tires you'd recommend for these wheels? I would like to go at least 295 at the rears. My first preference is for the best road noise reduction.

Thanks.

they are a darker color with a polished stainless steel lip

I don't have a pic of them on a Vette so here's a G35 Coupe


they are designed for proper sensor installation and we can even supply a new set of sensors if you would like

255/40R18 MI PILOT SPORT
295/35R19 MI PILOT SPORT

and remember when you purchase a wheel and tire package we can mount and balance them at no charge and include new lug hardware at no charge with all of our wheels if needed

if you would like to order them use this link or call me directly

Luke,

Thanks for the information. Will the 265/35/18 or 275/35/18 tires fit on the front wheels? I'd like to go wider than 255 if possible.

Hmmm, those look pretty nice. How are SSR wheels incomparison to others? Is this wheel offered in a 18" x 10.5" or can they be made that way and in chrome?

Do you also carry or can get the Vienna Sovereign wheels from speedstar?

Oh yeah, are these 120.65 x 5 bolt pattern?

SSR builds a very strong wheel utilizing the SSF technology

Look for a new brand ( Speed Star Wheel or SSW ) in the near future and you might be surprised what you find .... Vienna soveriegn is highly possible


no chrome GT3's
