Anybody with SSR wheels?

I'm looking at purchasing a set of SSR Type-C wheels (or SSR Comp's for that matter), anybody have a set on an RX-8? I've done my forum and google searches to no avail, would appreciate any help :D

it's the preferred wheel for the Stock class racers because they are light

Awesome, exactly what I was looking for :D Now the next question is, will 19x8.5 with a +29 offset on all four fit?

245's or 255's, not sure on what % sidewall though

Edit: actually, scratch that, the set I'm looking at comes with 235/35/19, those should fit no problem. But what would be the max tire size I could go with?

235 - 245 with that offset, you're really pushing it out, your scrub radius will suck ...
