SSR Wheels GTX 05 DR EDITION - Engineering Precision for the Art of Drift

A Dedicated Drift Wheel Built from the Ground Up by SSR

SSR Wheels GTX 05 DR EDITION is a cast monoblock wheel purpose-built for competitive and street drift applications. The DR EDITION is not an adapted GT wheel but a drift-specific development: every aspect of the spoke architecture, center geometry, flange profile, and bead seat treatment has been designed around the specific mechanical demands of sustained high-angle, high-load cornering. The result is a wheel that provides the security and performance drift drivers require, in a 5-spoke form factor that reflects SSR's precision design standard.

SSR Wheels GTX 05 DR EDITION Engineering Features

Three structural systems define the GTX 05 DR EDITION's technical character. The spoke design employs a wide-section cross-geometry that maximizes structural rigidity in the lateral and torsional directions where drift loading is most severe. The center section uses SSR's deep-profile design to position the spoke root further inboard, increasing rigidity at the hub mounting zone and reducing flex under the sustained side loads of competitive drift. The flange profile features SSR's stepped structure produced by FFT-R forging, which strengthens the rim edge against the deformation forces experienced during repeated tire-mount cycles and extreme-angle slides. A distinctive feature of the GTX 05 DR EDITION is the knurling finish applied to the bead seat surface - a machined texture pattern that increases friction between the wheel bead seat and the tire, preventing the tire from rotating on the rim during extreme cornering loads. This feature is essential for drift applications where conventional smooth bead seats can allow tire slip under sustained side-load conditions.

SSR Wheels GTX 05 DR EDITION Construction

Cast aluminum monoblock construction with FFT-R forging process applied to the flange zone. The monoblock structure provides the integral rigidity required for drift applications, eliminating any potential flex points present in multi-piece designs. JWL certification confirms compliance with Japan's wheel safety standard. The GTX 05 DR EDITION is designed for demanding competition use including professional drift series, time attack, and high-performance street driving.
