Question Please Help : Finally Found SSR GT1 Wheels

hello ,

I would really appreciate anyone who could please clarify my doubts....

I have managed to find -

SSR GT1 - 18" wheels -
35mm offset
5 x 112 - 18 x 8 and 18 x 8.5 wheels

I have read in the forum that with SSR wheels one would need 3mm spacers .
Can someone give any comments on this if i would also need spacers for SSR GT1 as mentioned.

what is the max width of tires can one go with these wheels ..

Thank you very much and any help would be really appreciated ...

Judging by the offset & spoke design, I really don't see a need for spacers.
If you want, you could bolt one wheel on the front & one on the back, rotate the wheels & see if they hit anything ( brakes, etc. ).
To advise you on max. tire size, we would need to know the year & model of your car.

Thank you very much ..

In this forum i have read that the shape of the wheels are not as curved in real as they look in the picture ... That is the reason a 3mm spacer is required ..

please can someone clarify on this issue ...

depends on the weather
the GT3 uses a 3mm hub-centric TUV approved spacer for a C32 application
