To be honest, this is based on the story. Nobody has witnessed the death of Arima, not even a single CCG. All CCG personnel think that "Kaneki" actually killed Arima, but Arima actually committed suicide. This leaves in CCG possibly rating Kaneki SS+ the same with Seidou. Tbh, I don't believe Kaneki deserves the SSS rating, but on the other hand in chapter 54+ Kaneki or Sasaki was fighting Eto in her Kakuja form which is SSS. Although, Kaneki was escaping Eto, in terms Kaneki surpassed her in the form of strength, speed, and agility. The criteria of an SS ghoul would be the strength of multiple Special Class. Arima though would kill an SS ghoul in a matter of minutes. It's safe to say that Kaneki "didn't" surpass Arima.

So I would give Kaneki a solid SS+
