SSR Comp rally wheel in 15" for WRX

Our wheel speciailst recently finalized the plans for a 15" SSR Comp rally wheel to fit on the Impreza WRX with US spec brakes. The wheel will be heavier than a normal 15" Comp and also stronger for the intended racing use.

The wheel will be made in White, Gold and Antracite and will not have a polished lip (better protection aginst rocks etc.) like the normal Comp. The wheel will be sold as the Comp-X. Also, the wheel doesn't come standard with center caps - but it will the regular Comp cap if you desire.

They should be available late spring/early summer - I'll update you with pricing when it's available.

Make these fit 4 pots and you got a deal.

no kidding. i've got a set of four pots waiting to go on in the garage, and i'd love to have a set of 15s that would clear them for gravel/dedicated track auto-x use!

Maybe if the pistons in your calipers are the size of the piston in a glo-plug engine they'll work. But seriously - no way unless the system diameter is less than that of the OE 2-pots.

I can get new brackets for the OEM 4 pots to use on smaller rotors. It's the caliper width that I'm concerned about.

Ban - good. Clearance for extension is good on this one so we can likely get it to work. I'll attempt to get the drawings to give you some real numbers.

What's your guess on pricing compared to standard SSR Comps?
