Curious if you needed spacers, also curious if there would be room for 285s with those wheels with or without spacers without some alignment tweaking?

285 NT-01's clear barely up front. But I think they run a little big.
Probably would rub if using camber bolts.
I am thinking of getting some 3-5mm spacers for insurance.

Also, the GT350R replicas are +35. I would have gotten them instead if they were available when I bought these.

What do you all use to clean the barrel of these wheels? Especially between the caliper and the barrel. Can't fit in there very well.

Was thinking of wheel woolies and these seem to be the most popular: https://www.amazon.com/ABN-Wheel-Wo...8&qid=1508484399&sr=8-1&keywords=wheel+woolie

But don't think I need 3 and $45 seems a bit much for some brushes. Anyway, what methods/items do you guys use?

And while I'm here, how do you guys clean it, just use the regular car shampoo? Or some APC?

Just take the wheels off when you want to really clean them.

This.

You can not get between the caliper and wheel with it, so either roll your car, or just get that spot the next wash. When I dry I do use an older microfiber to dry the barrel. That basically gets what the brush missed.

Wheel-woolies FTW...look for discounts...mine have help up quite well and do a exactly what they are intended to do...get in those small spots.

Has anyone used the OEM lugnuts with these wheels, specifically the ones that come on PP wheels?

Or do you have to use the specific lugnuts that come with them?

I have the PP and the OEM lug nuts will not work, they are too big around. You have to use the type that come with them.

Which one did you get?

Skimmed the thread and saw something about lugs but having to change splines.

Any of you find a different lug set for these wheels that works? I notice mine are showing some rust and such...at some point I may get the wheels powder coated since I just rubbed one wheel on a curb...so pissed...black touch paint filled it in really nicely (suprisingly).

Not lowered yet. Only 2 weeks old. Week 1: Roush AB, Week 2: wheels/tires, Week 3: PP2, Week 4: springs and shocks/struts

Nice I was hoping to see how 275/40s would look on the stock ride height.

You could, although the fronts will be a little more stretched.

I am running the stock GTPP rubber on 10" fronts and 11" rears, both wheels are at the high end for width that Pirelli's site recommends for the two tire sizes. Stretched but functional until I wear them out...

So you have the 275/40 on a 11" rim?...I got a 285/40/19 Pirelli on my 11" and they say thats the widest the wheel can be..I would think 10.5" would be widest for the 275/40/19..got a pic of that rear wheel?

SVE350 19x10 square, graphite
275 rear, 255 front (for now)

Condor1970 · Jun 17, 2019

Thought I'd update this thread with my new R350's. 19x10 squared up with ATLAS Force UHP in 265/40R19.

@Condor1970 ... can you share wheel offsets?

Rims- SVE R350 19x10 +35mm offset.

Tires - Atlas Force UHP 265/40R19.

Atlas- Which surprisingly have an almost perfect look, even though they have a 1/2" stretch, the handling is pretty darn good for an all-season UHP tire.
