FS: SSR GT2-H 18x10.5, +43et gold
I have a set of SSR GT2-H wheels in JDM-licious yellow gold, brand new in the box. They are 18x10.5, +43et, exactly the same specs as Team RX-8's old SSR Comp-Hs, but just slightly heavier. I put one on a shipping scale at work and got 20.2 lb. Still lighter than stock. I am a wheel & tire nerd and geeked out to find the maximum fit setup when I decided to get an Rx-8. Team's was it, and I obsessed until I found the wheels to make it happen.
I checked with Tanabe USA, and was told the GT2 has been discontinued. As far as I know, I have the last set of these wheels sold new in the country. I would love to see these on a WWP 8 parked in my driveway, but it's taken me longer than I thought to buy the car, and I still don't have it. Kinda getting tired of sitting on these with no car to put them on. I'd like to see $350 each, but money talks. Plus shipping, or will meet you halfway in SoCal. Hardware, centering rings, etc. are included.
Dang, they're beautiful!

Exactly.
PM me if you want them.
All the fit details are here (thanks, Baggy!):
https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-55/18-x-10-5s-fit-116988/
These are the same width and offset, from the same manufacturer.

Thanks for the bump. These are still for sale. I've been distracted with other things.
The 5x100 is followed by 520kg, which would be the reduced load rating if they were drilled with a 5x100 pattern.
The wheels are 5x114.3, like the sticker says. The 690 kg marking is the load rating. Perfect maximum fit on an RX-8 with 265/35-18 and no rolling. 275/35-18 might take a little roll.
Someone please buy them before I go and buy an 8 to put them on, now that fuel prices are back down.

Do these show what you want? Nice look, even though it's not that extreme. Definitely not flat, thanks to the width, even with the high offset. Miles of space for brakes.
The first image shows the color more accurately. The pics are of the same wheel, just a different angle. Camera wasn't liking the flourescent light for some reason.
