Bean Garage is proud to offer premium wheels from SSR!  
These are extremely high quality wheels, semi-solid forged with great, timeless designs.

In 1991, SSR learned of the advanced technology known as Semi-Solid Forging (SSF). This technology was being used by the aircraft industry to manufacture parts that required low weight and reliability. SSR then acquired a license to use SSF technology from Alumax Laboratories. They conducted research and development for one year and created their patented wheel manufacturing plant in Nara, Japan. By combining the best features of casting and forging, SSR implemented them in the manufacturing process of SSF. Further research led scientists to develop a process whereby mixing alloys during the solidification process changed the original microstructure of the alloy from a branch-like structure to a globule granular structure. Alumax then perfected the aluminum stirring process, Magneto-Hydro Dynamics (MHD), and created the basis of SSF technology which results in a pure cylindrical alloy billet free of non-metals, gasses, oxides and other impurities. This MHD billet, when heated to a specific temperature, holds a semi-solid form. The billet is then pressed into a mold at a high rate keeping the preferred globule granular microstructure as the new shape is formed. The end product is very dense and strong. SSR is the only wheel manufacturer in the world to produce SSF aluminum wheels. SSR continues to research ways to further develop SSF, creating reliable, durable, and lightweight wheels.

We can get any of the wheels listed on their site, reply to this thread or contact us for the best prices.  

For example, we are offering SSR SP1R wheels as featured on our SEMA Nissan Cube.


The specs on these are 16x7 +26 offset in front, 16x8 +26 offset in rear.  Three piece wheels with perfect fitment for your Nissan Cube, from a reputable Japanese company.... It doesn't get much better than this!  
The price on this set of wheels specifically designed and fit to your Nissan Cube is $1899 including shipping

Other wheels available from SSR - view their web site at ssrwheels.com for a complete listing.

I like the deep lip of the SP1R. 

Is that a 3 piece wheel?

The Type F under Hybred Energy Selection are hot at 16.7 lbs for an 18!  Shocked

I don't know if this fitment will fit a Cube or if they offer the cube fitment but I might bite on those. Hot style and fuel/break relief. The aluminum rims on the Honda Fit are wicked light at 15Lbs, these SSR Type F I am sure are lighter than the stock aluminum  Cube wheels. Reduce the rolling weight and save a tad on the fuel bill wile rolling sweet would be a double plus.

Anybody know what a stock SL cube rim weights?
