Satin Graphite 6GR!

Just picked up a set of Satin Graphite 20x10/20x11 6GRs from another guy in our local Mustang group: brand new, never mounted, and for a steal with TPMS, center caps, lugs, etc. I am going with 273/35 and 305/30 Continental SportContact6 that should arrive in a few days. However, I couldn't wait, so I threw them on for a "test fit" to double check clearances as well as see how they looked.

Thanks a bunch to @Need4SpeedMotors for answering my bazillion questions. I was literally about to bite the bullet on a satin black set before these Graphite ones essentially fell at my feet. xD

Update: Rear tires came in, so off to the tire show tomorrow!

Got the tires mounted and put them on the car. OMG, I am in love with these wheels. The fitment is absolutely perfect. The tires are just the right size to not look stretched or ballooned. Continental SportContact 6 (275/35 and 305/30)

I was thinking either those or the Steeda progressives.

Installed my 19x10 square setup Satin Graphite on Michelin PS4's 285-35-19 and they look awesome.

I was afraid of the ride being darty with the wide fronts but I honestly feel no difference to the 255 PP wheels.

As I expected, I picked up a bit more rear wheel gap coming from 275-40-19 but I think I can live with it.

Oh and a big FYI - Need4Speed will send you 4 wheel caps each sealed in a bag with the Project6GR stickers on the caps. After losing 3 of the stickers after going for a ride I decided to see what was up on the 4th one still on and once I got my fingernail behind it and pulled it off I realized they aren't stuck on at all ... you need to peel the backing off first, then stick the sticker to the cap. Why the hell would the people making those caps not leave the sticker loose in the bag instead of putting them on the cap (where they looked perfectly normal btw as if they were stuck on)??? Or at least put a note in there N4S saying as much.

Anyway, you've got an e-mail Alex ... send me new stickers via USPS mail expedited please as I don't want to pay any duties, brokerage, taxes etc. on this .... UPS courier already dinged me for $282 on the wheels.

Oh, I also weighed the wheels & tires all at 32 psi and here are the weights:

Project 6GR 19x10 with Michelin PS4 w/ 0 km = 57 lbs

Ford PP wheels with Pirelli P-Zeros w/ 6,000 km = 63 lbs for front, 66 lbs for rear

Overall unsprung weight savings = 30 lbs
