March is slowly ticking by. Weather has been all across the board with many of our toys still tucked away due to weather. Daylight savings and spring is approaching, so here is a little something to thaw the ice…

SV702
We have finally released the second wheel in our Precision Series lineup. This wheel is called the SV702, and is a street version of the SV502 Track Spec. The crystal Burgundy finish fits the design quite well. As always, the first car to debut the new wheel will be in at a lower price point. Let me know if you are ready to play ball.

Signature THREE
Our SIGNATURE THREE is part of the Flagship Series Lineup. The CAD drawings I saw of this wheel did not do it justice. The Flagship Series wheels are designed for low offsets usually on achievable by fender flares on the mustang. The concave profile and drop cup center make it look pretty crazy. Hoping to see someone rolling these soon.

SV103 GT500
Got our first set of Signature Wheel SV103 delivered and mounted to customer @merkyworks.b2749 . This setup has excellent fitment and clearance on the inboard side. This setup is saving 10lbs per wheel over the OEM setup. All of our S197 wheels are cut for big brake kits so the customer is not limited if and when they decide to upgrade. If you find yourself in Texas be sure to hit him up.

FPRS GT350R
As promised I had an opportunity to spend a little more time with the Ford Performance Racing School GT350R after the Raptor Assault. The philosophy used to build this car, and the story behind it make it even more interesting. FPRS got this car shortly after they received their school GT350’s. Their contact at Ford HQ actually called FPRS and informed them that they had 3 EXTRA GT350R models, and wanted to know if they wanted them. You can only imagine what the answer was…

This car will live its life at FPRS and also see duty at some local race events. It turns out this will not be an endurance car, but in fact the FP350S will be. The philosophy behind the car is keep as many OEM components/systems on it as possible in an effort to show how capable the car is. A Watson Racing Cage, A/C delete, FP350S exhaust, full race gauges, and some sticky tires are all that is in store at the moment. The A/C delete caused some issues as it left an open space in the boxed lower portion of the engine compartment. This required some new boxing to be done to keep turbulence out of the engine bay and under the car. After speaking with Dan McKeever we may also see an MGW shifter on the vehicle for some serious track validation.

There area few very unique parts and problems associated with this build. First off, the removal of many sensors and computers not needed for track use has caused issues with the ECU. Something as simple as swapping the exhaust will remove the exhaust butterflys. As many of us know the car will not allow you to switch drive modes without them cycling through properly. This problem has reoccurred in other areas where sensors were removed, and will require some innovating tuning from one of the technicians at Ford.

One of the most interesting features about his build is the use of Boss 302 headers! That’s right, OEM Boss 302 headers bolt right up to the Voodoo. The flange that connects to the midpipe is not the same, but you could modify that portion of the exhaust to make it work. If you had a set laying around from the sale of your Boss, or wanted to run an aftermarket shorty header for the Boss you could.

There are also some very slick quick release trunk latches discreetly built into the trunk and wing.

GP350
Had the pleasure of speaking with @GP350 from Instagram earlier this week. GP has a twin turbo GT350 that puts down some very stout numbers. He was on the hunt for a lighter and stronger wheel setup that can handle the power being put to the tires. GP was close to buying a set of Forgelines until he was referred my way by a few customers. After discussing his setup and what was needed we were able to build him the SV502 he was looking for, and save him thousands of dollars. With the anti-slip bead knurling on the rear wheels there should be no fear of the tire slipping on the wheel when the boost hits.

Blown Dead Line
@Blowndeadline was actually a gentleman that came our way on Instagram via our relationship with MGW. BDL has an 800hp 2011 GT500 in need of some new wheels. BDL has a set of aftermarket wheels on the vehicle now, but was not happy with the fitment. We are going to build him a set of Crystal Burgundy SV107 to keep with the theme of his vehicle, and fix his fitment concerns. BDL also does some AMAZING Cerakote work for firearms and other items. If you are a gun enthusiast or just happen to have time to kill I would definitely check him out at www.blowndeadline.net

SigsauerGuy68 / Agri39
SigsaureGuy68 is a member of Track Mustangs Online, and has a very clean Grabber Blue GT350. During his ownership of the vehicle he purchased a set of aftermarket wheels that left much to be desired. Within a few days of chatting back and forth we were able to get him setup to build the first true GT350R spec SV103 for his Shelby. Sigsauerguy has a very unique wheel color selected, and is also having the car done up in a satin Grabber Blue. When it is time to debut his car on the wheels it should definitely be a thing of beauty.

SV108 – SN95 Cobra
This is our first set of the SV108 completed for an SN95 in Brushed Bronze Tinted

SV701 – Married
Here is a quick shot of our GT350R spec SV701 finally mounted to a tire. Should be on the car here very soon

The shots I’ve seen so far are amazing. Going to be a good summer. Especially for you.

Just got these updated SV501 pics today

What’s the main difference between the SV103 and SV502 besides somewhat different spoke design? These look close to the factory GT350 rims. What’s the weight of these? Thnx.

Honestly the only thing the wheels have in common is the number of spokes. The SV501 (which I think you are referring to) and the SV103 are both fully forged aluminum which is going to be lighter and stronger than the cast GT350 wheel. Both wheels have increased concavity, feature our drop cup center, and almost double the brake caliper clearance of the OEM wheel. Weight savings by running either of these profiles will be roughly 12lbs per wheel.


The SV501 Track spec was built with a lightweight focus and comes in at 20/21 lbs in a GT350R spec. They are at 20lbs in a square 19x11 fitment. The

The SV103 is going to tip the scales at 21/22lbs in a GT350R spec.

Good question, and if you need any other data points please ask.

Terrance,

Thank you, muchbappr fisted. PM sent.

Great Opportunity guys. We have a set of SV502 Track Spec finished in gloss gunmetal built and ready for purchase. They are a square rotatable 19x11 et50 weighing 20.8 lbs each, and equipped with anti-slip bead knurling. Ultimate street/track setup to reduce rotating mass, save on consumables, and look bad ass. All that is needed for the GT350 is a 25mm front spacer and extended studs. The R only needs the front spacer. These are ready ship NOW. Can’t discuss pricing here so PM me!

Specs
19x11 et50 square
Anti-slip bead knurling
20.8 lbs
