Update to the SSR Wheel Company bankruptcy
There has been some questions recently about the status of SSR / Speed Star and how the bankruptcy is affecting future deliveries int o the US.
As you may know SSR filed for bankruptcy at the end of January. Since that time Tanabe (the suspension company) has announced that they are buying SSR. This transaction and the resulting restart of production has not been finalized. When they announced their bankruptcy we had plenty of inventory of the SSR wheels and still do in many sizes, but the 993/996 sizes are starting to dwindle and unfortunately we don't know when production will be restarted. At present we have no inbound shipments., and we are their importer.
***So, if you are thinking of buying a set or a spare now's the time.***
If I had to speculate I would say we won't be getting any more in for at least several months.
I'll keep you posted as more information becomes available.
