SSR Type-C Forged 18x9.5 +38 5/114.3 - Sprint Black Wheel

This is the SSR Type-C forged wheel, measuring 18 inches in diameter and 9.5 inches wide, with a +38 offset and a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, finished in Sprint Black. SSR has a long history of producing high-performance wheels, and the Type-C is a well-known example of their commitment to lightweight strength. Forged wheels like these are made by pressing aluminum at very high pressures, which creates a denser, stronger, and lighter material compared to cast wheels. This process results in a wheel that can handle the stresses of spirited driving and track use while minimizing unsprung weight, which can improve handling and acceleration.

The 18x9.5 sizing with a +38 offset is a popular choice for many performance-oriented vehicles, offering a good balance between aggressive stance and clearance. The 5x114.3 bolt pattern is common across a wide range of Japanese and American performance cars. The Sprint Black finish is a deep, matte black that looks clean and purposeful, fitting well with a performance aesthetic. Because these are forged, they are inherently strong and resistant to bending or cracking under load, making them a solid choice if you push your vehicle hard or simply want the best in terms of weight and durability.

When installing these wheels, remember that proper tire selection and mounting are crucial. It's also a good idea to check your vehicle's specific fitment requirements to ensure compatibility, especially regarding brake caliper clearance, though the +38 offset and 9.5 width are generally well-suited for many applications. These wheels are sold individually, so be sure to order the correct quantity for your vehicle.
