Their 19" wont work their inner barrel has a lip that wont clear the brakes at all.

Darn. I'm bummed. I had them from my old GT PP. I was hoping they would work.

No sir our 15/5" front rotors and pistons are so damn large its a mission to fit 99% of the 19" wheels out there they just wont work.

That includes the 350 (I noticed I was commenting on an R thread).

I'm trying to find cheap alternatives for winter here. It would be a daily driver.

Correct both have the same brakes.

I've got a tentative plan to buy a set of the 350R replicas from latemodelrestoration, have them powdercoated hyper silver, and store my OEM GT350 wheels. Not necessarily for winter reasons, but just for not feeling so bad if they meet a few curbs in their lifetime, and just to change up the looks a little bit.

The LMR replicas definitely fit the GT350/R and they're less than $1000 for a set and still give you the good looks.

Didn't want to start a new thread but same question about winter wheel/tire option or 350R.

Would a 19x11 square Project 6GR wheels with 295/30/19 Pirelli snows work?

What other options are 'R' folks using for the winter? I'm sure not all Rs are being stored for the winter.
TIA
