SSR wheels are great! They carry almost half the price tag of Volk wheels and are of good quality. We are a big importer of SSR wheels (as we are of Volk wheels).
SSR uses a Semi-Solid-Forge technology on some of their lineup primarily the Type CRS and Type C wheels (1 piece sport wheels). The rest of the lineup, especially the 2-piece wheels such as the SP1 and MS1 wheel line, as well as the luxury Vienna lineup use a gravity cast inner with a cold forged outter. This is the same as the Volk GTV, GTN, etc. line up.
Cheers,
Gary

I think it really boils down to this - when you buy well-known JDM or European wheels you can pretty much be sure it's not going to break in half on you during an auto-X when you're car is putting down 450ft/lbs of torque at the rear wheels - you'll just pay a bit more. When you go with the replica stuff - who knows? I've seen wheels crack in half on the track from nothing but high torque.

Here is a example:
19x10.5J +43, +30, +22, +12, +18, +10, 0, +5, -3, -13, -8, -16, -26,
Obviously it depends on the disk type and how much lip you want on the wheels.
