How deep is your dish?
Okay, so now you got three different sets of deep dish rims and you only got one car to mount them on… What to do with the other two sets?
Things you can do with your deep dish rims
Well, for instance you can turn your 13J Techno Shadows into a coffee table!

Or you can turn your SSR Mk III into a nice barstool!
For the people who paid attention: the Techno Shadow rims were posted before in this deep dish posting and the 11J SSR Mk III in the picture of the Techno Shadow table were posted here.

We posted some 11J SSR Mk IIIs before, but they did not have any tires mounted on them like these 14 inch 11Js:
SSR Mk III 14 inch 11J
According to the seller they were mounted on a Yonmeri Skyline C110 and fitted within the rear fenders. I think it must have been done by mounting these rims with massive camber…otherwise I think they would most certainly bump against the fender on each speedbump.

The mounted tires are Goodrich BFs and according to the seller a bit worn, so see them as a nice bonus. I have no idea what size these tires are, but they are surely nicely balloon-shape stretched…

In case you are interested in these rims, they only cost 120000 yen ($1350) and can be bought here:

If you thought Zeppann13J was the only person to post amazing deep dish videos you were wrong: kybdirtra89 posted this video with a lot of yummy rims:
Nice touch is showing the width, size and offset of the wheels! (???)
My personal favorite is the SSR Mk3 14 inch 11J ET-51 at 0:33! (???)

It was to be expected and Jin already predicted it: SSR is the most iconic wheel brand!
So, lets find out what product by SSR is the most iconic wheel then! I found this great old advertisement of SSR at beeoneoneoh:
I made an selection out of it:
SSR Mk. I
SSR Mk. II
SSR Mk. III
SSR Formula Mesh
SSR Longchamps XR4
SSR Jilba Racing (isn’t that just a solid Work Equipe?)
SSR F5
SSR Star Shark, which is not in the picture, so here it is:
There are some other rims by SSR, but they are either newer or so rare you will never see them on a zokusha!

SSR Mk III 13 inch 11J (end result)
These SSR Mk III rims were photographed by Zeppann (aka Zeppann13J) and are quite a rarity in these widths. He took pictures of the whole process of polishing these rims since they arrived like this:
SSR Mk III 13 inch 11J (how they arrived)
After some polishing the lip already looked like this:
SSR Mk III 13 inch 11J (polished lip)
Only polish the outside? Why not polish the inside as well?
SSR Mk III 13 inch 11J (Shiny on the inside as well)
This way the tire also has a nice “view” of the rim! 😉
