They are 18 & 225/40 SO3'3
I will have to be very careful about potholes from now on. I never saw this one coming. It was just inside the line on a well traveled highway (Rte 46).
The rim edges are a little fragile on these wheels (SSR Competitions), as they are on most light weight wheels, and with low sidewall tires, very suseptable to damage. The hole I hit might have broken even the mighty Avus though. It made quite a bang.

My sympathies....I've gone through a few rims myself.
But my 17inch SSR Comps have lasted pretty well.
BTW, I just bent one of my SSRs and www.rimandwheelworks.com was able to fix it for $120. and BTW, they previous rims (ATPs) where not repairable.
Good luck!<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/600863.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/600863.phtml</a</li></ul>
