Did I just become best friends with my SSR's...YUP!
 

First off I need to give a HUGE THANKS to Dan at Assaultech and Ryan & Sharif at Forged Performance. Long story short, I ordered these wheels from a vendor, only to have them take my money and never actually order the wheels, which were in stock mind you. Dan stepped up, got me a great price, and got SSR to hold them until my refund finally went through. While this was all going on, I had a buyer waiting for my Volks. Forged Performance allowed me to use a set of their wheels (even though my refund hadn't gone through) so I could get my Volks off and sell them. I really can't say enough good things about Dan, Ryan, and Sharif, so I'll leave it at this...thank you guys!

On to the good stuff :icon21:
Specs:
SSR SP1's Spectrum Silver
F 19x9.5 +20 (with a 5mm spacer)
R 19x10.5 +18
Purple MXP X-Dura Lugs

What's really cool about these is that the Spectrum Silver is almost a charcoal grey when not in direct sunlight, but as soon as the light hits them...

Let me know what ya think :thumbup:

I'm sure they look awesome in person and way to be original but it looks like someone left a coat of RainX on them in pictures. Love your car BTW, so clean!

holy mother of god those are sexy

Looks awesome Sir

Actually they look best when the turn dark GM or black

I like them!

Nice...

You got the new finish, sick!!

Thanks everybody!

I wanted something in an interesting color with a polished step lip, and when I saw these I was pretty much sold.

wow grats dude, Forged really does take great care of their customers.

looks amazing brah, what is your side skirt? that the bottom line chargespeed kit?

But seriously good looking wheels, finish, and clean overall car.

oh hell yeaaaa

QFT!

Thanks for the complements! Yup it's the chargespeed bottom line kit.

:icon17: thanks man!

looks good :)

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwww super clean

Love the reference!

Good god those are Glourious!

Chris

You've got great taste on both accounts sir

Looks great

Papa bear says too wild.
Momma bear says boring.
Baby bear says just right.

Trippy color, awesome wheels.

Looks really nice! I need better pics of the wheel color at different times of the day.

Car is sick bro. Nicely done

Thanks guys!

I'm waiting on a Varis Lip I ordered so I can put my OEM bumper back on, and after that I think I'm gonna call it quits on the exterior...unless I find a SS HR hood :fingersx:

yo abarclay did you need spacers or experience any issues when fitting the wheels over the brakes?

i love how your alliances completely fill up the inside rim. that's how i want mine to look in the future.

The only issue I see could be the fronts. I got the fronts +25 with a High Disk, so that they'd fit, but I never really got to see because I went ahead and added a 5mm spacer so they would sit a bit more flush. Just looking at them, it might be close without the spacer.

Hindsight I wish I had gone with a different kit and a bit smaller (for more wheel options) from a more reputable vendor, because Mike from Blackline has pretty much disappeared.

Car looks great!

What sideskirts and rear is that? Any better rear shots?

Thanks Alberto!

Its the chargespeed bottomline kit on the sides and rear with a bumper tuck.

Here's a couple better shots, but still not that great...

Excellent looking car. IMHO all Z's non NISMO should use Nismo V2's and rear diffusers... Loving it!

You have won!

Looks great. I'm loving that finish!

well fkn done sir.

i dig it.

The new wheels look awesome dude!

looks great

love the SSR's!!! :drool:

Looks real good.

have you thought about the following:

- Rear wiper delete?
- Painting/vinyl the roof glossy black?
- Blacking out your headlights?
- Spoiler?
- Instead of an OEM HR hood, maybe vented hood for HR (that hump gives the front end an aggressive look too), that'll help once you decide to go FI

im just throwing away some suggestions.. as your Z looks super HOT the way its

Wow, thanks for the complements errrr'body!


Thanks! haha, I've actually thought about all of those things except the roof part. I've really given the hood some thought in the last month or so, I just don't have enough cash for it right now. I wouldn't want to leave it CF because I don't have any CF on my car, so I would end up having to pay for it to be painted.

Car looks great man. Again, nice to hear good things about a Dan. Glad everything has worked out for you. Looking forward to seeing future upgrades.

purty, much better than the other setups posted.

Love em!

super clean! wheels look absolutely stellar!

I could look at those wheels allday OMG, sex lol

Get the matching rear to the loaner wheels, that would be hot. Other than that just another Works Meister wheel, very bland and played out IMO. The color is cool.

i like yours, im still in love with finalforce's old polished setup.

i love your new wheels but i kinda like it more with the gts

You offically made up my mind. These will be my wheels....

Cool

uhhhhh son! looks great!

Thanks guys, these wheels do really look even better in person, but that's probably with most wheels.

I'll admit, I do like the concaveness and design of the Meisters a bit better. But I really couldn't be any happier with the color(s):icon38: of the spokes on these.

Also I do miss my GT-S every now and then. Plus I just got a picture from the Buyer that shows that a Tire Shop jacked up the TA stripes and a bit of barrels of the front wheels.
:mad::icon22:

Dude, your car will look HOT if you paint the roof glossy black

I can imagine it in this pics

I. Need. Rolling. Shots. Now.

Looks amazing bro!
