I find it hard to believe the SSX wheels aren’t lighter even if they have said they weigh the same, but that is my opinion. It has been said the SSX wheels will be standard and the other will be an option ($$$). It has also been speculated that the SSX wheels will come in different finishes, so there is a lot up in the air.

Given the two options – SSX black or polished I’d probably pick the SSX even if I’m not a huge fan of black wheels. I think it will look good with IOM and I like the looks a bit better. I’m hoping they offer them in another finish in which case I’d have more thinking to do. A machined / painted finish would be nice – something with contrast. The only way I’d not go with the SSX wheels is if they are the optional wheel and cost $5,000 or if the weights are released and they weigh more.
