According to the OP, the machine that makes the wheels is made in Germany. Not the wheels themselves. I'd imagine the wheels are made in Asia.

Good catch. So that would be JWL certifications I guess.

You are correct the Spun Forged machine itself is made in Germany its the best spun Forged machine in the world not many companies have it but there are a few I can count on one hand, one being the manufacturer we are using.

The wheels are made oversees not in Germany but tawian this way we can keep the cost low but the product QC is top knotch.

yes sir JWL VIA certified but not TUV that would cause the cost of the product to be much higher due to cost of testing and such.

Currently we have 7 pre orders for the R Spec 6GR wheel we need 33 more to make it a reality.

Price seems very reasonable. What is the wt difference from the standard GT 350 wheels??? Thanks.

What is the promo deal for the first 15 19" R spec pre-orders. Please PM me.

Also do we have a choice of finish for the pre-orders.

Yes it is, I dont know the exact Gt350 weights but I would presume 2-3 lb difference at most.

pm sent, finish is being finalized this week seems to be gloss black and flat graphite in the lead.

I pulled one of my rear wheels last night to take some measurements for Paul and the wheel/tire was 62 lbs. I'm estimating the tire at 29 so figure 33 lbs for the wheel. They're targeting 22-24 lbs on these so you will drop 13-15 lbs per corner! I'm assuing the 2 lbs you will save for a Hoosier R7 315/30/19 (27lbs).

At this price these wheels are a great deal versus going custom. We already have 7 sets with paid deposits on the R fitment wheels. Step up and get yours ordered guys, so we can hit the track this spring. They're figuring 60 days lead time so we need to get moving! Without wheels we're missing out on why Ford made these cars so track ready.

How many 6G members have placed an order?

tire rack says 30# for a 305/35/19 rear GT350 tire, so the wheel is around 32#. Front tire is 28#. I wouldve thought the GT350 wheels would weigh less than the porky performance pack wheels

Currently 1 member here, 4 are pending and the rest are from another forum ( 6 pre orders) , we need the Mustang6G Gt350 community to help get this going and make a reality.

Thank you very much brotha I appreciate all the help, we have confirmed the offsets for the GT350 compared it to the R and then based on this if the GT350 has about 11 mm more space front and back we can easily get this R spec working.

Unfortunately no, for comparison the Camaro ZL1 wheels 20x10 & 20x11 are forged they weigh in at 27.7 lbs without tires.

Ford has said the CF wheels are 60 pounds lighter than the GT350 wheels so no surprise they weigh approximately 33 lbs each. They are wider than the PP wheels.

please pm me pricing. I'm interested in having a set of track wheels. With that said, would these be a good set of rims to run all the time?

Crushmorgan · Nov 19, 2015

Can I get a price on 19's?

They're going to be approximately 8+ lbs lighter per wheel than the stock GT350 wheels so yes!
