what do u guys think. they r the same price as bbs (299) and they are a about good 5 lbs lighter at only 16.5. im debating wether or not they would look good on my cl.so is ssr a good brand. i mean for 300 a rim they should be.

im gonna photshop them onto my car. ill post up again later

 

I like them But i really like 5 spoke wheels so i guess my opinion is alittle biased.

 

They're a classic good lookin 5 spoke rim.

Of course, whether or not they look good on the CL remains to be seen... (photochop)

 

I think the rims look good too but I would go for an 18"

 

Yea I agree they look good, SSR is a good brand, I think on my Cl-S I would go with the 18" ones but they will cost more and weigh more than the 17".. I also like the classic 5 spoke design.. easier to clean and does not look too 'busy'

 

i owuld get 18's but not on my little 2.2 i need to save all the weight i can. but i got to have at least 17's.

 

heres a better pic of the ssr's



heres the oz superleggas


so which u like better? i tried photo shopping it but the pic of my car is too small and the rims don't look good. i dont feel like rescanning a bigger pic so i just used the tirerack pics.

Personally, I'd go with the OZ's, they look a little better to me, and they are most likely a little lighter. OF course it is all up to you and what you want, seeing how you own the car, not me... but the OZ's would be my choice, eventhough they both look great on there... maybe with a 1" drop or so they'd be perfect.

 

Actually, the SL's look a little better than the Integrals on those TR pics.

If you can wait til Monday or so, I can dig up a pic of my green '97 CL & Photochop my SL's on there for a better idea of what they look like. The TR thing can be deceiving because you rarely ever look at your car exactly from the side.

 

hey guys... what is this Photochop or photoshop program you keep talking about... it sounds pretty cool if you can make it look like you 'put' rims on your car. Any info will help me, thanks.

 

It's made by Adobe: http://www.adobe.com

Here's just something you can do with it: http://i-club.com/forums/showthread....threadid=68218

 

& you can cut wheels out... such as the SSR's on this Civic



onto this WRX



to get

 

looks good. my cl pics are too small. hey how can u rotate the rim in photoshop. like for example my rear rim it was fine but in the pic my front wheel was turned. how can i take a side view of a rim and angle it?

 

IF YOU WANNA TAKE MY OPINION, IM NOT A FAN OF THE INTEGRALS AT ALL. A BUDDY OF MINE HAS THEM ON A 98 ACCORD AND THEY AREN'T AS APPEALING IN PERSON AS IN A PICTURE. GOOD LUCK DECIDING...

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE SSR EVOLUTION...
IM PLANNING TO PURCHASE THEM FOR MY CAR
(1998 3.0 CL) IN 18 INCH....

 

where can i see those. i cant find a ssr web site to see all there models. and tirerack just has the one. i think im getting the oz just cuz they are 1lb lighter and ill take alli can get for my 2.2

 

Use the circular select tool to roughly select the rim itself. Right click on the selection & choose transform selection. Go to the edit menu, Transform, Rotate. Rotate the selection so that it more or less will fit once you restretch the selection area. Go back to edit, transform, scale. Rescale it so it selects all of the wheel. You may need to rotate & scale a few times before you get it.

Now you have it selected, so copy it & paste a new wheel down. Go to edit, transform... and rotate & scale the wheel until it looks right.

It's 2.30a... let me know if I missed anything.

 

Luis wanted me to post this for some reason...

 

I love SSRs...

I am not a huge wheel afficionado, so I'm not sure if the SSR Evolution is different from the SSR GPO Evolution, but if it isn't....

Those are 18"; they're powdercoated anthracite, but you still get the general idea.

angelcl.. those are them.. they look sweet!

i wanted them in white? do you have a web adress to see them at? where di dyou get them? 18x7"? give me as much ionfo as you can including cost.. please .. thank you

 

I bought them certified pre-owned lol but they are $589 apiece new... I don't know of a website at all, cuz I bought them from a friend, and he got them off a show car.

18x7 with +49 offset.

On our car, 225/40/18 tires work best. 235 is too big; keep that in mind.

My good friend found this.... he says it looks like they sell them.

 

Integrals LOOK GREAT !

How much the OZs weigh ? Pics ?

 

17" OZ Superleggeras are 15.5lbs and the recently introduced 18" ones are 18 lbs. A 19" application is on the way in silver instead of light anthracite.

Here are the 18's:

 

the prob with the oz i think is that they have a 35mm offset which is no where near 45 so i dont know if i should get them. so im confused again. i think im set on the oz's

 

I'm not sure about the 4 lug SL bolt pattern, but my 5x100 17x7's are ET48. A bit off from the recommended 16x7 ET53, but I can't tell any difference.
