Hey Alex,

I called you today but you werent there, anyway, according to Marksmith, the SSR comp 17x7.5 will clear Brembo GT 320mm? Is that correct?

Here's the original thread he post
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ghlight=brembo

 

I've enjoyed 6 months of driving w/ the 320.mm Brembo BBK & the 17" SSR's Comps. Love the wheel & brake combo!! No spacers are needed, it fits w/ plenty of clearance DESPITE the fact that almost no one except Alex at T.Rack seems to accept this (I even sent them a picture.) No offense meant to Alex who has been an excellent advisor.
-Someone PLEASE offer me something for the expensive 5mm. HR spacers I purchased but never had to use!

 

What's the different between SSR Competition and Comp-H?

 

I think SSR Competitions come in widths that are sometimes 'illegal' in the
auto-x classes. Comp-H are for H-stock class...I think that's how it goes.


Mine are 16x7.5's and legal in all manners as my MCS is only a street car.
:smile:

 

The SSR Comp H is 16 by 6.5 to satisfy H stock requirements, as the largest stock wheels for MC are 16 by 6.5. :smile:

 

For SSR Comp H, the "H" stands for Hybrid wheel ("Comp-H" in the U.S./"Type C-RS" in Japan). For details see-
