Just Ordered...What do you think??

You could have instead ordered a 19x9.5+12 which uses the same high pad so you would have the same BBK fit, plus a 72mm lip and flusher fitment like the rear. In the rear, you ordered a 19x10.5+18 normal pad with a 97mm lip, okay fitment, but could have been better if you went with a 19x10.5+5 or a 19x11+11 which would have the same bbk clearance as the set you ordered plus a 110mm lip. The 245 on the 9.5 is going to be more stretched than the 285 on the 10.5 so I would have gone with a wider rear for a better look. Still some sweet wheels though, just kinda sad that they could have been even better 
who put 295 or 305 on rear with the stock quarter pannel?my friend`s wide Z put 285front 305rear its just bit of too much for stock body...

^WTF....lol.
WORK Co Ltd is Japan 's premier manufacturer of high quality custom made automotive performance wheels. Established in 1977 the company grew quickly and now has several manufacturing plants and offices in Japan.
In the 1980s, SSR researched and developed magnesium and titanium wheels in an effort to improve upon cast aluminum wheels that had reached their performance potential. SSR studied the feasibility of bringing magnesium and titanium wheels to the market and found several drawbacks, among them high cost and limited production capacity.
Both companies are damn good manufacturers.

Either way the wheels are going to be sweet, one of my favorite wheels. Not everyone wants to run super aggressive offsets, sorry triple8sol and I rained on your parade suggesting better offset which IMO would have looked better. Waiting for the pics of your wheels
