that's pretty decentWonder what the weight of their 17x8.5 or 17x9.5 would be
17x8.5 +31 is 17lbs. 17x8.5 +49 is 16lbs.
17x9.5 +29 is 16.8lbs.
I think all SSR wheels are forged aluminum.

Most light weight wheels are forged aluminum. I just checked SSR's website and they are 'semi-solid forged' aluminum.

45 series is good enough. Lol. This is jrotax101 's E36 Track Car. He has the Type-Cs in 17x9.
If the wheels can take on numbers of racing events, I wouldn't be worried about it getting bent. Unless I hit a curb/pot hole of course where bending/shattering can happen to any wheel.

You are probably the second one I know who got a BuddyClub P1 that was bought for $200 or under. That is such a good deal. Those wheels go for ~$800-$1000 for a brand new set.
