How deep is your dish?
I spotted these deep dish rims on auctions.yahoo.co.jp:
Deep dish SSR mk1 rims: 9.5J (front) and 11J (rear) wide
Even though they are not polished but finished flat matte at first glance these 13 inch rims look awesome! Especially with the nose of a Skyline Japan C210 on Hart Racing rims in the background. 😉
Deep dish SSR mk1 rims: 9.5J (front) and 11J (rear) wide
And with 9.5J at the front and 11J at the rear you can’t go wrong!
However the seller is a very honest man: he warns that these rims may look good, but in fact one of the rear rims is damaged at the hub opening (see picture above) and has cracks around the nuts and also one of the 9.5J front rims is not air tight. Of course the rims can be fixed, but that will cost you money as well.
Deep dish SSR mk1 rims: actually not that good as they appear to be…
Even though the seller says it is at bargain price at $1200 (compared to other 11J they are not really cheap!) it actually a may turn out to be buying a pig in a poke.
Nice find – most rim sellers on YJ Auctions are pretty honest with their items. This one is a little pricey, but if you want that look I guess you’d have to bite the bullet and cough up $1200. Although, I wouldn’t pay that amount for 13″ – can’t even find a tire size for that any more!
you can still find wide 13 inch tires on yahoo, Dunlop CR88 and a few Yokohama Advan tires are still floating around. You can even find Dunlop Sp2000 225 in 13’s. Your right about it being proxy especially for 13’s, I have 14 x 10/11/12 SSR MKI and MKII. There’s still room for another set =P.
