I was able to make the factory Pony center caps fit the front wheels with little modifications (GT w/ PP for reference). Cut the tabs off flush holding the Pony on; I glued it back on with super glue. Then shaved 1/16-1/8" off the clips. It sits flush now no problem.

Did you have to wrap tape around the caps to get them to stay put? I've read a few posts where people have said they needed it.I was able to make the factory Pony center caps fit the front wheels with little modifications (GT w/ PP for reference).

I replied to your private message. But I'll answer here for the benefit of others.
No I didn't add any tape. They fit tight enough for me. In fact it was quite difficult getting them pushed into the hole. Had to use a plastic pry tool to push in one of some of the tabs. Once they were in, they didn't spin.

I'm hoping MRR will make the SVE graphite color standard...it's a great look.

Or you could use the GT350 caps with no modification needed. Excuse the dirty tires and brake caliper. This was taken just after they were installed.
$12 a piece and free shipping. They are satin black and not gloss, but they blend very well and I would imagine a little shiny applicant of some type would do the trick if they bother you.

Are these rims lighter than the performance pack rims ? I heard that the PP rims are heavy compared to most other rims

I weighed the SVE's and the 19x10 = 23.6lbs and 19x11 = 25.0lbs. I still have my tires mounted on the PP wheels, so can't weigh just the wheels. However, the "What things weigh thread" lists them at about 32.5lbs and believe I have seen some postings around 33.5lbs for the rear.
For the tires, I went with 275/35/19 and 305/35/19 MPSS and at least according to tirerack.com, they weigh the same as the stock 255/40/19 and 275/40/19.

Wow 8lbs is quite a lot when its unsprung weight !! Did you notice a different feel when you drove the car ? I am sure its more nimble

Definitely a difference. Feels much more nimble and lighter on it's feet. Not sure if it is a placebo affect, the tires, the wheels or all of the above, but it was more of an affect then I expected!
Here is someone else's view on reducing the wheel weight and changing tires:

Nice !! Thanks for the link too, thats pretty much what I expected to read. I have a potential deal set up for this weekend to trade my PP wheels plus a little cash for a 20x10 MMR GT350 set up.

I saw that the 20x10 staggered set up with Nitto G2's has a 305/30 for the rear tire. Does anyone have a picture of that? I want to buy them, just a little nervous how a 305/30 will fit in a 10 inch rim. I don't really want to go to a 305/35 because how tall the tire is.
