So this is the cheaper knockoff of the other knockoff of the OEM GT wheels?

The MRR copies the Ford GT wheel, maybe LMR did too?

I can't see how MRR can complain about other people making replica wheels, when they make replica wheels.

Actually look at any wheel catalog from any two manufactures and you are almost sure to see a lot of similar looking designs.
Yep. :cheers:

I don't think the concern is if it's a replica. It's more is this a flow forged wheel like the MRR or is it cast? Same quality just with a different name and price?

Yes, the factory log nuts are big rig sized parts. I would be surprised if any aftermarket wheel could use them. Most certainly can't. But you can get 3/4 hex 14mm lug nuts that should work and avoid having to use special tools/adapters for splined style nuts.
Thanks for the info. Much appreciated.

So on a side note whether they are the same thing or not.
On the MMR M600 product page it says they fit the 6th OE Mustang caps and lists them as size: 54mm. My call into LMR about the GT7s, they told me the wheels don't fit the factory center caps and there is no mention of it on their product page. So there might be that difference between the two.

Indeed. I just offered a different option for members. :cheers:
These look like a good option at this price point.

With the LMR discount code, they are under $950 a set.

I like the look of these SVE wheels. More options for us buyers is never a bad thing.

Word. I work in mass production design both foreign and domestic and its funny how my designs somehow show up with a different brand on it when we go overseas. That same factory offers designs to other customers all the time.

Theres nothing I can do. The clients demand a lower unit price and "the customer is always right..."

FYI; Enzo Ferrari once said "the customer is not always right".
That would piss me off.

It did, not much you can do though. I got over it after the first few years.

Certain countries don't respect patents, IP or copyrights.

Am I the only one that thinks these are not very good looking wheels? Not trying to hate just wondering if my taste is in the cast minority.
