19x11 front wheels mach 1

[RandomTask]

Looking to see if anyone runs a square 19x11 setup on their HP car? Apex don't have a 10.5, so I'm looking at doing ET52 19x11's all round.

Lots of people running that kinda wheel up front, especially in the Road Race section.

You'll need about an inch spacer up front with that offset to clear the suspension, and -2.5 to -3* of camber to tuck under the fender. Or you can get APEX's +24 front wheels for no spacer, but then you can't rotate them.

The apex wheels I am looking at are +26, and yeah I’m adding that camber. It is a track specific build.

In that case you’re good. Mach 1s aren’t any different in the wheel fit dept from other GTs. I’ve got a set of Apex 11” SM-10s (ET52 square with the forementioned spacers up front) and its a great setup for sporting use.

what size tires are you running with those wheels? any lowering springs?

295/35 or 305/30 (I’ve run both), and I’m lowered ~ 3/4”. Next stop for me is 315/30 but can’t do that with the ET26 alone, kind of need longer studs and specific spacers to play around with fitting extra wide tires. 305s or less on 11s are easy

315 on the rear through right? I'm already on those with an 11"

So I bought 4 Apex EC-7, 19x11, 52 mm offset wheels with 315/30 Pilot Sport 4S tires and going to try and run them on all four corners of my 2020 PP2. Have a set of 1" spacers and just waiting on the 1" longer studs to mount everything up. From my measurements, it should fit and compared to the stock 305/30, 19x10.5, 24 mm offset wheels , should only stick out a couple of extra millimeters, nothing a little extra camber won't cure. Found a guy on another website (trackmustangsonline I think.) running the same combo, other then he was using a Falken tire that dimension wise was a little larger than the Pilot Sports. He said he had no issues on his base GT other than a slight rub on the fender liner at the rear while turning, hoping my PP2 liners may give a little extra clearance. Plan on starting a thread on it once I get around to getting them on the car, hopefully I will get the stud one of these days.

I was saying 315 square (front too). But i have longer than +1” studs and wider than 25mm spacers.

May work, may rub on the strut, going wider than 305 depends a lot on your specific suspension setup and the actual dimensions of the tire.

I agree with that - with 25mm ET50 wheels (so 2mm farther out), 305/30 Falken leaves enough clearance to the strut that I would not go any wider. Car was set at -3.3 degrees of camber. Assuming 315 is symmetrically wider than 305 (and ignoring tire model differences vs. advertised width), that's 7mm off clearance taken between tire and the strut (2mm from wheel offset, 5mm from wider tire) - I'd think that would almost certainly rub against the strut (which is exactly the same with the very same hub as PP2).
