SSR Professor SP5 18×8.5 5×114.3 +30mm Offset NR Polished Wheel

SSR Professor SP5 18×8.5 5×114.3 is the polished 18×8.5 build of the SSR SP5, which SSR describes as the lightest wheel in Professor history,. It is a three piece wheel running +30mm offset on a 5×114.3 pattern with the NR disc. Every SSR wheel is JWL tested before it is sold for road or track use, and this one is sold individually so you can order exactly the quantity and the widths your car needs.

Ten Spoke Disc

The disc carries the same ten spoke layout as the wheels SSR supplies to Super GT, a shape chosen for the balance it strikes between strength and rigidity and one that happens to be well suited to removing weight. The dimples machined into the spokes are not an accent; they follow the same GT logic.

Spoke and Rib Work

The spoke faces are shaped to the limit. Where the spokes meet, SSR alternates between shapes that add rigidity through ribs and shapes that remove weight through tapered edges, distributed rather than uniform, which is how the wheel holds light weight and strength together.

HTM Rim and Fasteners

The inner rim is an HTM rim, heat treated by an SSR process that raises hardness and allows the barrel to be spun thinner than it otherwise could be. The fastener that ties disc to rim is slimmed without losing rigidity, and even the number and placement of the piercing bolts was set with weight in mind.

Center Options

The center is offered in four shapes, SL, NR, MD and HP, chosen to suit the car. High metal bronze was introduced on this model.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this price for one wheel or a set of four? One wheel. Add four to your cart for a full set, or mix widths front to rear for a staggered fitment.
Is a center cap included? No. The SP5 uses a capless center to keep the hub thin and light, and the cap is a separate option.
Will this fit my car? Fitment depends on your bolt pattern (5×114.3), hub bore (73.00mm) and the clearance you have at +30mm offset. Check those against your car, and contact us if you would like help.
What does the NR disc code mean? SSR builds this model with several disc depths, coded SL, NR, MD and HP from shallowest to deepest. This wheel is a NR, which sets how far the face sits back from the rim edge and which brake packages it clears.
How long does an order take? SSR builds to order in Japan, so lead time moves with their production schedule. contact us and we will give you the current estimate before you commit.

About SSR

SSR has been building wheels in Japan since 1971, when it released the MK1 and became the first manufacturer to produce a three piece wheel. The demand for aluminium wheels that followed led to JWL certification in 1973, and every SSR wheel has been JWL tested before road or track use since. Across five decades the focus has not moved: precise, lightweight, strong wheels, developed alongside a motorsport programme that reaches into Super GT and feeds back into the road catalogue.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
