Hopefully Polyphony will release some DLC rims if they see the demand for it. Like, all of SSR and Speed Star Racing.

that elise really did it for me

You should be able to 'photo slam' your car. Just reduce the bump stiffness up front and max out the rebound and bump in the rear, roll foreward, slam on the brakes, take pic while compressed.

are those the prodrive wheels?

Yeah, cant get anything better for it

SSR IS Speed Star Racing.

And there are SSR wheels in the game

Just because you find links on the tanabe.jp website doesnt mean they are 2 different companies

What are you talking about?

a) I didn't say they were differen't companies, they're different product lines
b) Tanabe owns the SSR and Speed Star brands, so yes, anything they say is official

ok, so why in your second point of the above quote did you seperate SSR and Speed Star? They are the same thing. SSR = Speed Star Racing. Same brand.

Tanabe = Company

SSR = Brand A
Speed Star = Brand B

I think you're confused because I called Speed Star 'Speed Star Racing' out of old habit.

Speed Star is to SSR, what BlackFleet is to Volk.

Tanabe is to Speed Star and SSR, what Rays is to BlackFleet and Volk.

Speed Star Racing used to be a company, but they went bankrupt and Tanabe acquired the brands. Comprende?
In US - whole thing is called SSR. SSR also short for Speed Star Racing - still used as an acronym for company. For future reference, when I say SSR, I mean the brand. If I mean the company, I'll say Speed Star Racing. Unless I'm naming a wheel, because then it's just too damn long.

Oxer, word of advice. Do not argue about wheel companies with Firelizard.

Fair enough, I always knew speed star wheels (MKI,II,III) to be the beginnings of SSR, known as Speed Star Racing.

Im pretty sure a lot of people would recognise them all as SSR, and anything to do with ownership of the company (Tanabe) as a different matter.

The bold line technically is wrong, because there are lines of wheels under the SSR logo just as Rays have volk etc.


This isnt a wheel discussion thread regardless.

THIS is a badass drift vid from GT5... Autum ring ftmfw!!

umad?

[firelizard]

"what trolls want you to think"...

Anyways, GT5 could use Speed Star rims if theren't already some. Unless there aren't many older cars.
