Well that's pretty cool. SSR is using my car for their main product page for the GTX01. That's huge imo for Tesla on a Japanese wheel site.

Congrats dude. Can't wait to see mine on there.

I’m looking at this set too for my next replacement with skinnier tires though. Maybe 255/35 or even 245 width if it works. Did you special order through autornd? I didn’t see the set on their website.

Yes I did. It's on the site under New arrivals. Very limited and very hard to get. Especially in the dark silver color. Last I checked there was one set of silver and a couple blacks in stock in my fitment. Definitely reach out to them and it appears you're local to me as well. Are you part of any of the local clubs?

I'm planning to just go with these for my winter setup:

https://www.tirerack.com/upgrade_ga...wheelModel=GT15&wheelFinish=Dark+Silver+Paint

$202 per corner @ Tirerack.com. Wheels+tires+tpms is going to be about $1900 to my door in 235/40/19 size. Rims are just under 24lbs so I should get a slight overall weight savings (probably about 48lbs all in) as well as a significantly lower cost.

Best,

That sounds like a good setup for winter. Enkei has some very reasonably priced lightweight wheels that can be used as winter wheels as well. You should start your own winter wheel thread. This isn't really relevant to this SSR thread but I do appreciate your input.

Ah....no worries, was just giving as an example since folks were discussing rim+tire weights.

My favorite setup in the Wheel thread aside from the occasional RGIII. Glad to see some OG 'JDM' heads on this board.

Don't believe it was mentioned but did you use spacers for the stepped Performance hubs?

Thank you so much for your kind words. I did not use spacers or hubcentric rings for that matter.

Whoa so those GTX's mount up to the stock Performance setup with no issues? I know they already accommodate M14 studs but Wow.

Seriously interested in a set of the flat black for the cold and wet months. Hopefully in stock in the USA. Thanks for the response!

I got you!!!!!

Yeeeee tell me when to gooooooooooo!

Shoulda gone 25 offset in the rear

Just curious, would 25 be better to get them to sit more flush? or is there a performance benefit? from the looks of the pictures, they look pretty good.

I'm looking into a set of these but need to make sure they fit around a Big brake kit without spacers.

Thanks.

+25 would be good for a Performance model but any other trim I'd suggest the +35. Just keep in mind there might be some more range loss with the lower offset. +25 is also special order, ETA 3 months most likely. nobody is stocking that fitment in the states, including SSR. Matte black is available and Dark Silver will be in a couple weeks.

Thanks for the quick reply @P3D-R. Yea, i have a performance model. That would only be +25 on the rears, right? Yea a big reason i want new wheels is to try and offset my crap range with my 20's so maybe sticking with 35 would be best.

thoughts on BBK clearance? I have a Rotora BBK. Stock performance wheels clear them fine. Any need to worry about these? Ive reached out to SSR with a caliper diagram but haven't got a response.. Im thinking they should be fine.

 

[P3D-R]

You can DM me and I can follow up with SSR on the brake diagram. I have the +35's in black and silver coming soon. +25 will work front and rear. Just keep in mind this will not help your range. Range is affected more by tire width than wheel weight. Even though I shaved 2lbs a corner I lost about 10-15% range. Also keep in mind the driving experience with wide tires becomes so much more enjoyable that you might feel yourself engaging the throttle more aggressively. lol. Send me that DM and i'll help get this worked out for you. LMK what suspension you have also.
