RonJon Inspyres on a SSM

I did a search and I couldn't find anything...

Would anyone have pictures of the RonJon Inspyres on a SSM? I am really interested in seeing how the wheels look with SSM...

I am not sure if I want 18 inches or 19 inches, so any pictures of either of those sizes would definitely help me in making my decision...I am interested in the silver color rather than the chrome ones...Personally, I feel that silver would look much classier with SSM as opposed to chrome

I saw a lot of pictures with the Inspyres on a Blue, Black, Anthracite but nothing on the SSM

I know that on www.ronjonwheels.com there is a SSM TL with the Inspyres but I think that's a photoshop picture, so I am really interested in a real-life picture...

So, if anyone has a SSM TL with RonJon Inspyres (either 18 inches or 19 inches), could you please post some pics here...Thanks in advance

I don't know of any off hand. Are you looking at chrome or machined? I would imagine the machined would look awesome, but I'm not sure the chrome would go well.

I agree with your opinion. Machined would look much better with SSM as opposed to the Chrome wheels...

However, before I make the final decision, I just want to get an idea as to how it would look in real-life...

Ya I saw this picture on RonJonwheels.com but I want to see one with the silver finish rather than the chrome finish...I guess no one has one

I could possibly be the first one (all depending on when I get my car...either 1 month, 2 months, 3 months )

Don't think so...I have had silver 18' JonJon's for about four months. I like them allot with the satin silver TL.

The only thing I regret is not getting 19's!!! They look better....

I will take some pics next time I wash the car. Maybe this weekend.

By the way I have the 245-40-18 NITTO 555's with a 1' eibach drop and comptech rear swaay bar.
Looks great and handles extreamly well in the curves! Top speed in a curve 82mph - no squealing on the exit off ramp!

Jinen, the machined finish will look BETTER than the chrome on SSM in my opinion. I'm 100% sure you can't go wrong with that choice. It will look sweet.

I agree that machined will look better than chrome. (Of course I'm biased because I don't like chrome at all)...

how's the ride comfort when you switched to the inspyre 18's from the stock 17's? i don't plan on lowering my car but i do plan on installing the CT rear sway bar...i just don't want my ride to get all messed up...so if you could just let me know your opinions about the ride quality/comfort, then that would be great

I can help you with this. When I went from stockers to 18" Inspyres I first went with the ASPEC standard 235 series tires. I immediately noticed more small bumps in the road...it felt like I could feel every pebble. I also didn't like the "rubber band" profile so I just bent over, took the hit, and immediately replaced the 235s with 245s of the same brand, Falken. The 245s give you a very similar profile to the stock 17s and add maybe 1% error to your speedo (not significant IMO.) The result was a nice looking package and a ride almost IDENTICAL to the factory 17s. If you don't want to lose ride quality, this is your path.

Do you really like the chrome better on SSM? I agree that chrome can look just as good on Blue or Black cars depending on your taste but are you thinking specifically on SSM? I just don't see it.

Been wanting to see how that looks, sounds orgasmic.
