Deep Dish Dreams: SSR Re-Releases the Iconic MkI, MkII, and MkIII
If you are a fan of classic Japanese steel, Christmas has come early. Speedstar Racing (SSR) has just announced they are bringing back the legendary MkI, MkII, and MkIII wheels in ultra-aggressive, deep-dish sizes.
These aren't just your standard re-issues. SSR is catering specifically to the Kyusha and Kaido Racer communities by offering serious negative offsets that will fill out even the wildest overfenders.
The Return of the Speedstar Icons
The SSR MkI is the ultimate minimalist masterpiece. Its polished, solid-disc design is a staple of 1970s JDM styling and remains one of the most recognizable wheels ever made.
For those who prefer a bit more detail, the MkII and MkIII are also returning. These four-spoke icons offer that perfect balance of retro racing aesthetics and aggressive fitment.
All three models will be produced using SSR's traditional three-piece construction. This ensures that they aren't just show pieces, but high-quality components built to lasting standards.
Negative Offsets and Deep Lips
The real headline here is the fitment. SSR is offering these wheels with A-type, B-type, and C-type inner barrels, allowing for massive dish depths.
Whether you are looking for a mild street fitment or a super-deep negative offset for a widebody build, these new options have you covered. It is the perfect way to get that authentic vintage look without scouring Japanese auction sites for used sets.
