Question New Wheels

Are there new wheels at Ronal and other vendors with which we can replace the standard satellite wheels?

I just got the SSR Courage which I understand is brand new. It is a high quality 3 piece forged wheel. The painted wheel matches my Silver car well, and the polished rim fits right in with the chrome accents on the car. Looks like it was made for the car!

Sorry Manaray -

After posting my reply I checked out your link and only then realized how much wheel discussion there was there. I can see that Exhaloprez's question was answered 10 times over in that forum...

Question

RodF ...

Where can I see a pic of the SSR Courage wheels?
I made several Google searches and looked through the Ronal and Tirerack sites, but couldn't find anything with that name.

1NICESC430 - I'll take a picture of my car today and post. The shop that sold it to me told me that this is brand new. that is probably why it is not on the web sites yet.

Hey RodF,

you got the SSR Vienna Courage?.....nice...i just ordered a set from japan directly for one of my cuz who will be bringing them back to australia....those are very very nice...:eek: what kind of finish did you get? and size?

many jdm co such as work and rays offer this style now as they are very popular in japan. the courage is bit more expensive because they are semi-solid forged...

1nicesc430...

if this is what rod bought...take a look

Default Yup, that's the one

I got the painted finish. Only the outer lips are polished. I stayed with the 18" so that I could keep my runflats. Here is a pic.

BTW, sorry I was going to post this pic in the wheels forum and put a reply here linking to that post, but I couldn't figure out how to set up the link to a thread.

Default BTW....

BTW gs4will -

I'm just curious as to what the 18" versions of these wheels are going for. I got a special deal from my guy because there were some other things involved, but what would it generally cost to get these wheels outright?
