Just wanted to get your opinion on which wheels to get! Both look basically the same but there are some small factors that differ! I am currently running volk gt7s with specs as follows(19x9.5 +30 front 19x10.5 +24 rear with 245/40 front tires and 285/35 rear tires)

Trying to balance perfomance in terms of wheel weight and comfort in terms of tire thickness! Maybe factor is a bit ride height so i dont scapre that much!

I have been looking into these 3 wheels:

1. 20" Ssr Sp1 with step lip with 245/35 front and 285/30 rear





2. 19" Gram lights 57s Pro with same 19" tire specs posted above





3. 19" Work meister s1 3 piece with same 19" tire specs as above





Here are my reasons for picking these wheels:
I like the looks of the ssr sp1 and the stance of it since its 20"! They say though that they are quite heavy in comparison to work wheels! It might also slow me down significantly!

I like the work wheels because of their strong barrels and its weight! Just dont like the separation of color with the ring containing the rivets and the face along with it being 19 only! Meaning i would be more prone to scraping and the stance of 20 wheels is just a lot better! Again step lips are just sexy! Hehe! Are there 20s for these? I think i saw some on ebay!

I like the gram lights for its look and uniqueness! They seem light too! Thus the name! Haha! My downside for it though is that it doesnt have step lips with the same gripe of mine with 19s! Factor in the cost of tires compared to 20s!

Anyways i need your opinion with reason if feasable so i can have an educated stance on which wheels to pick! Ofcourse feel free to suggest other wheels that seem to meet my category though! Dont really like mesh but i kinda like the ssr ms1 or the bbs rgr i think with step lip! The one that shanesg had!

Thanks in advance for your input! Its much appreciated! =)

 

My vote is for the meisters, what color are you planning on getting? Are you planning to get the same offset as your volks? Seems a bit to conservative

 

If Meisters don't win this vote I'd be shocked.

 

I'd personally go with Work Meisters just based on brand, but this car isn't exactly going to set the world on fire whether your rims of heavy or light. So if the stance and fitment of SSR is more to your taste, and the price is also cheaper, then SSR may be a better choice for you.

 

Im going for a satin black or gloss black face with polished lip! Nah! I need to go more agressive! Running some spacers on those volks! maybe just factor in the spacers used to get the offset I would want to use but I still dont know much about face type of the wheels! I want something that will clear bbk to futureproof with big lips!

Hahaha! Damn might be a one sided poll then!

Didnt work make 20s for meisters though? Kinda a factor for me cuz I tried 20s already then when i put in my gt7s it was a world of difference!

 

They did make meisters in 20inch but only 2pc i believe

 

Whatever happened to them? Did work discontinue them? They look so nice too!

 

Yup its discontinued, just get the meisters, i love mine!

 

any pics?

 

Meisters don't come in 20's anymore, that is both 2 piece and 3 piece wheels.

SSR SP1's come in 20's, and as far as I know, Fernando is the only one in the U.S. with a set of SSR SP1's in 20's.

Nando's car. He's dropped on Tein Basics with a collar removed on all 4 sides. Specs for his SSR's are 20x9.5 +5 - F and 20x10.5 +5 - R. These are the SBC (super black coat) finish.

 

Hmmm the 2pc meisters seem to be appealing to me more and more! Looks more cleaner:

 

Yea man! I know that car too well! Been stalking it! Have most of his pics saved on my computer or phone! Hahaha! Been one of my inspirations for my G! Want the wheels face in gloss or satin black though! But im gonna go less agressive for sure! Want to run 245/35/20 F and 285/30/20 R tires for LA potholes! Hehe!

 

 

Professors FTW!

 

Miesters ftw!!! ;p
