Nice!! About time if you ask me.
Any news about the SBC later?? These wheels are awesome. A friend of mine in s.cal has the GT2 SBC on a 240sx. It's a very nice wheel. Good job, Luke.

they are nothing like the Professor which is a gravity cast extremely heavy wheel .... the GT2 is semi-solid forged !!!
the Super Black coat is not durable enough for the US market unless you don't want to drive your car

so these will fit any wrx/sti up to 04? without rubbing? with a rim that wide it should be good for 235 or 245 tire. right?
Rumor is that the 05 will have wider fenders? so it should be able to accommodate a 9? or more?

As for problems with the SBC, or any other color from SSR for that matter, we have never had an issue,a nd have sold ONS of SBC Professors for nearly every kind of car, from STi to RX7, to IS300 and GS400 and M3's. All of them are perfectly durable for US usage - remember, Japan and the US have extremely similar climates and weather conditions!
