ok here's the deal I am considering any of these wheels i just want to know what other people's opinions are. I'm going to be sticking with SSR wheels cuz that's just what I like. Don't ask why I just like them. IT's on an 03 in white. I was also wondering what kind of fitment everyone was using so I can figure out what I like and what will match on my car.

The Type C

The VF1 maybe in a smaller size? like 17? I dunno if they have it but I hope they do in Japan?

The SP1R

The SP2R I like the gold on this one I think it would be pretty cool

And finally, the MS1R

All the colors I posted are what I was thinking of putting on my car, but any and all feedback would be great.

silverstar has the type-c on an SSM.

vf1 are nice. looks like the volk re30. windchaser has those, but hasn't mounted them from what we've seen.

sp1's are hot, but the EP can't take a wide enough wheel to make them look as good as the pic.

sp2's are interesting. would be different. haven't seen an ep with those or something similar yet.

ms1. classic split spoke wheel.

Don't like the SSR stuff, just my opinion.
I am running 17x8 5x114.3 with 235/40/17 WITHOUT any lowering. Everything fits just fine for me. No rubbing or anything. 17" rims might be overkill unless you have some good HP to move those rims. Sorry but weight first looks second. I don't even like my rims as far as looks, but love the weight. Enkei RPF-1's BTW.

as far as i've seen at the shows and everything all of the wheels are pretty lightweight. and they have the looks to back it up. that's kinda why i like the ssr lineup.

I vote for the MS1 or the type C
I agree also that the SPR1 only look good in deep dish. I dunno if MoonSi's. But I think he has Works, and not SSR.

yea i know what you mean. white car with black wheels = played out. but if i do go with the vf1 i would go with the vf1R's. i dunno though i'm thinking that eveyone is right and might go with the type C's. I called and found out that there should be a shipment of wheels coming pretty soon so i'm kinda excited about that. still debating so i'm not sure what i'm going to do.

Of the wheels you've listed, the Type-C's best fit an EP3. Those & the SP1s are my favorite, but the latter just look silly since the car cannot take a 'real' wheel.

I vote MSR1 in 17x7 or 17x7.5
