FS: RARE SSR Type C RS (Forged) 18x9.5 Square - 18lbs

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
USD 1,300.00

Item Interest
Description
Selling a very good condition set of SSR Type C RS in 18x9.5 et35 (square). For those unfamiliar with the lineup, the Type C RS ("Racing Spec") is much stronger and lighter than its non-RS counterparts. These wheels feature forged centers and weigh in only at 18lbs. These were basically the TE37s before the TE37s!

Condition
I used these sparingly over the years, mainly as a track day setup. All wheels are straight & true, and they have never been repaired. However, I did refinish them a few years ago to change up the look. The original finish was painted anthracite but I had the lips machined and centers powder coated to gunmetal. I then applied ceramic coating and slapped on new decals. An additional plus is they come with authentic raised SSR caps with BMW logos.

Overall, I would rate the wheels 9/10; docking a point because:
1. Lugholes have scratches (almost unavoidable for JDM wheels)
2. One of the BMW decals is peeling (never bothered replacing since it’s likely to reoccur during track use from heat)
3. There are few random spots with brake pad deposit caked on (thanks Hawk)

All of the above imperfections are quite minor and hard to spot. But I’m also really OCD when it comes to my car so just giving full disclosure.


Price & Location
Wheels are located in Fairfield County, CT. Local sale is preferred but I am willing to ship at buyer's expense. My asking price is $1300 OBO picked up and that includes 4 wheels + caps (no tires or TPMS). I will try to upload more photos later in the week, just need to pull out of storage. Check my iTrader feedback, DM me with any questions.

All rims straight and true, only used on track. There some light scratch marks around the lug holes and spokes but no rash, just normal ‘wear’ over time.

Wheels, caps and valve stems included. No tires or TPMS. Asking $1500 picked up in tri-state area. But if you need spacers or tires, we can work something out. Will post pics later this weekend.

Check my iTrader feedback, DM if interested.
Got any pics of these on the car? What size tires did you run up front?

First few years I ran 255/35 square on my 3.0si. After switching to the M, I started running 245/40 and 265/35 square.

Sorry I forgot posted this on e90post. Also been going back and forth whether I keep these or my Style 32s also for sale. But I’ll post pics tomorrow, just been crazy busy at work.

Thanks I guess?

FWIW I’ve probably gone through over a dozen wheels and I honestly rank these in my top 5; hence why I’ve kept them as long as I have. Said differently won’t be sad if they don’t sell lol
