Finally, the child is born. Cool to finally see these GT500 fitments come to life.
Royal Series SV801 - GT500 spec 20x11.5 square / Brushed Bronze Tinted
The fun continues with the first set of Brushed Bronze Tinted SV801 to be completed. This is the GT500 spec 20x11.5 square, and equipped with the anti-slip bead knurling. Having 760 HP and amazing brakes I can imagine a decent amount of tire rotation happening on the rim during launches, cornering, or hard braking. This should eliminate almost all of that.
Monoblock SV108 - GT500 20x11.5 square - Gloss Black - Deep concave
We cut them specific for each side to be sure the rotation of all four wheel spokes is going the same way when mounted on the car. Should be in the hands of the lucky owner next week.
Multipiece SV302S - GT500 Spec 21x11 / 21x11.5 - Brushed Triple Black Tinted face, Polished lip, Stainless hardware
First set of 21” SV302S for the 2020 GT500 are done. The big day is coming soon on Twister Orange. 21x11 / 21x11.5 with a polished lip, Brushed Triple Black Tinted Face, and polished hardware.
Precision Series SV703 - GT500 Spec 20x11.5 square - Brushed Triple Black Tinted - Deep Concave
Right behind them are the first set of 20” SV703 to be completed. 20x11.5 square and showing that deep concave nicely in Brushed Triple Black Tinted. Rapid Red, we are coming for you too.

Brought the GT500 to Signature Wheel HQ. Threw some sample wheels we had lying around in front of the car for reference. Going to have a lot of fun with this thing, and excited to see what I build for some of you.
What is your favorite so far?

Thanks man. Hope to show something similar soon....
Great to work with you on these brother. Took a little extra effort but getting you the wheels, but was definitely worth it. Can’t wait to see your new setup come to life.Unpaid PSA--
Just received a set of matte black SV701s--fast and in perfect condition.
@50 Deep went the extra mile to deliver exactly what I wanted--even took them to the post office and personally shipped them himself.
Great quality wheel, great price, and even better customer service.

New Signature Wheels are on and I had the opportunity to get the car photographed by @Summit.SS this weekend. Figured it was a good way to break all the information about the wheel setup. You will see some of my own photography mixed in as well.
The GT500 is a blast when at full tilt, and manually shifting the DCT feels superb once you learn what you are doing. The car is obviously fast and that horsepower/torque hides a lot of the weight. The 500 feels very GT350 esque in a lot of ways. Steering is tuned well for feedback. Body roll is minimal but track enthusiasts will want lower/stiffer springs with accompanying sway bars. I can say that losing the unsprung weight with the lighter wheels does make a difference with initial turn in and acceleration. In my opinion the car needs less weight more than it needs additional power. Hopefully I will be tracking the car soon.
For the initial wheel debut I wanted to showcase our lightweight Track Series wheel options. This Track Series SV503 is the same wheel we built for the Ford Performance Racing School when they won at the NASA 25-Hours of Thunder Hill in December. These are built with an emphasis on weight reduction without sacrificing strength and stiffness. Mass is moved toward the center of the wheel to assist with acceleration and deceleration. Think about putting a weight on the end of a string and swinging it around your hand. You can spin the weight faster and with less effort when the mass is closer to your hand. Same theory applies here. More contact points at the barrel help with impact absorption. Anti slip bead knurling is used to prevent tire slip on the rim. These Track Series designs are also the initial recommendation for those looking for 18” rear drag setups.
As built the Signature Wheel Track Series SV503 came in at 26/23 lbs. This is with a 20x11.5 front and 20x11.5 rear that have specific offsets. Also showcased is the deeper drop cup center. Wheels are rotatable side to side, but not front to rear. Those seeking a square rotatable setup we can help as well. Reusing the OEM 305/315 tires and TPMS are not an issue and were showcased here. The OEM wheels once removed and dismounted came in at 35/32 lbs. Giving you roughly a 40 lb weight reduction.
OEM lug nuts can be used but many of the GT350 and Raptor guys have had issues with them swelling or the chrome caps crushing. I developed custom titanium lug nuts specifically to work with our Signature Wheel. The Titanium pieces weigh half of what that OEM pieces do, increase strength, resist heat swell, and have a higher engagement point using a standard 19mm socket. With specific lengths front to rear they are also designed to protrude the same amount front to rear for a very cohesive look, and will cover the full length of the extended studs found on the carbon fiber wheel equipped cars.
Being tested now are custom 3D printed caps to cover the end of the lug nut.
In any case this is a lot to digest, so lets end it here with some bad ass pictures. This setup is also currently for sale as I prepare to debut the next wheel setup.

They have an internal retention built in. Pretty cool.

Nathan D GT350R - 20x11.5 / 20x12 Flagship Series THREE - Brushed Bronze Tinted Lip / Triple Black Tinted Face / Stainless Hardware
Consistently pushing the limits of what we can do with the GT350 platform. Nathan wanted a maximum fitment setup for his R and this is the immaculate result. Wheels have No rubbing issues and are wrapped in 325 square Michelin Pilot SC2. My only goal is to build the baddest wheel setups in existence.
