I suspect you are right on this one. I specifically waited until the 2017 models when all the goodies became standard. From what I can recall, the early models without the track packages were overheating, which I can believe. I had a 2016 GT with a Performance Package, so no coolers at all, and...
Thanks for the responses guys. I am about to install the R hubs and just wanted to make sure I could use the MSI lugs until I get a set for street use. By all means the MSI lugs wouldn't be permanent.
Hey guys it's been a while but I'm finally getting to the point where I can install my OEM GT350R CF I got from the forum here.
Thanks to @Tomster I secured a set of lug nuts from MSI Racing for the CF wheels. But...
I still have the base GT350 aluminum wheels and what to use those for street...
Looks like the new platform is already on the way

Hey guys, just chatted with MSI and I got the correct product number, 40.0001, and they come in at about $4.25 a piece. So if anyone is looking for the lug nuts for their GT350R wheels, that's your part number.
He also informed me that they will be working with Ford i believe to become the...
Hey @Tomster, looking at the lug nuts section here http://www.msirp.com/lug-nuts, do you know off hand which product I need for the GT350R studs?
Thanks in advance,been a big help in my non-R to R wheel conversion project. :)
Hey guys, in an effort to help others, as well as myself, I would like to start a thread similar to this one, but for the gt350 specifically:
https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/the-what-things-weigh-thread.15864/page-39
I do know that the GT350 shares a lot of common components with the...
Thanks for the education and suggestions. Only question i have left is in terms of lubrication. I know the manual and service steps don't explicitly state it, but is there any lubrication I need, such as when i put the half shaft back into the hub, or something along those lines?
I know this is a Shelby forum, but I think this is worth the look. I've always been a bit Ford biased, but they must be doing something right.

Totally, it will be nice to have the tools around anyways if I need to replace them again, esp since I'm tracking the car. I've changed the pads once all the way around, so a little experience there. Really appreciate the help, I want to make sure this install goes right, especially on this car...
Thank you so so much for these detailed instructions. Seems there are a lot of nuances to doing the back, which I was kind of expecting. Time to start gathering and preparing for a fun weekend of car work.
I know this is a really old thread, but I am in the process of doing this exact install on my non-R after buying some R wheels from a fellow member here on the site. It sounds like the fronts are relatively easy, but the rears require a little more work.
I found a very helpful thread post here...
@lightrules Thank you for your business, this sale went well, and I would recommend you to others in the future should you choose to sell anything else.
Thanks for the advice. I decided to go with hubs since I also heard replacing the studs alone could be problematic. But I think I will be using the MSI lugs on the R hubs. Also, I assume with the R hubs/studs that I could still rotate the base gt350 wheels for non track days? I mean I guess it...
Hey guys thanks for all the replies and information will bookmark for reference.
Also @Tomster looks like you might be right. Since I have a base gt350, I'll have to order the R hubs due to the longer studs and then install those myself. Looks like its time to research changing gt350 hubs, yay!
