i've heard the same thing...unfortunately not enough people bought their wheels...how often do you see SSR's?

Not very often, but I was going to slap some on my miata when the time comes.

I heard this too. Hopefully it's just a rumor. I <3 SSR.. =(

[Phlip]

Hearsay is not confirmation, I need someone to prove it, as I am still not beleiving

[KoukiMonster]

yes..they filed personal bankruptcy.


however there is much more to be said about what this bankruptcy means..


don't start crying that you won't get your sp1's yet...


and the point that they went bankrupt because people didn't buy their wheels is stupid.

the companies are estimated to be worth 65 million.

They'll prolly just get gobbled up by a competitor, who will continue to make the rims.

Didn't Watanabe get gobbled up by SSR and SSR still makes Wats?

[wootwoot]

Hopefully another company buys them and uses the semi solid technology to make more wheels. More variety!
