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!

whatever ..... there are many multi piece wheels that are forged from HRE, BBS, I-Forged, OZ Racing and even SSR ........ and the Professor, which is no longer being produced thanks to Steve Millen and TRD, used formed rim sections not forged
