A few snaps of cool things around the SSR Factory in Yao. Everyone knows the wheels but how about some items that are not so typical to have the SSR branding on them?

Last Thursday we posted a few photos of cars that we came across on forums equipped with SSR’s GTV series wheels, if you missed it – check it out here. We definitely enjoy showcasing cool cars on these wheels, so we have compiled a few more photos for your viewing pleasure.
Here is “cloud9bill” from S2ki’s S2000, a great looking car on GTV02s
“jake92695” from evoxforums posted a photo of his Evolution X on GTV03s
This one is a photoshop, but “jonoc4” did an amazing job virtually mounting GTV02s on this 2015 Impreza
And a couple great shots by “AdvanZ33” on Zilvia of his 350Z on GTV01s
We hope to post more cars in the future, in the meantime please feel free to email us a link to [email protected] of any cool GTV equipped cars you may come across on your favorite forum!

SUSTEC PRO S-0C is for those who desire both high performance and maximum comfort from a suspension system. S-0C is ideal for performance and street applications.
Dispelling a popular belief that a firm or harsh ride is a sign of a performance suspension, the short stroke, shortened case dampener of the S-0C is extremely unique in that its internal construction allows it to deliver superior handling without sacrificing strength or ride comfort.
Unique double-cylinder design allows for full suspension stroke within the shortened shock body while Low-pressure gasses ensure smooth rebound characteristics for additional ride comfort.
SUSTEC PRO S-0C includes helper springs, which aid in rebound stability through corners and over road imperfections. They also serve the additional function of keeping the main spring under proper preload.

Browsing internet car forums is such a common activity nowadays that literally everybody does it, anybody from shop owners to kids who have yet to own a car looking to get their fill of downloadable photos. Today we took to the internet to share with you some of the best looking GTV wheels that we came across on forums.
First up is “Tommy_Prius” from www.priuschat.com with a set of GTV02s on his Prius, looks great!
Here is “figit” from www.themustangsource.com sporting a set of GTV01s on his Mustang – although SSR is a Japanese company, the wheels are widely used on European and American vehicles!
And since we are on the subject, another Mustang posted by “Jay@Hypermotive”, also of www.themustangsource.com – also on GTV01s
And finally, “MikeAChang” from www.iwsti.com with a couple stunning photos of GTV03s on his 2012 STi.
We hope to post a few more cars next week, in the meantime please feel free to email us a link to [email protected] of any cool GTV equipped cars you may come across on your favorite forum!
