Anyone tracked 6GR 7 spokes?

[B/Stock]

Just got my 6GR 7 spokes in R fitment (for non-R 350). There is quite a bit of info. on the wheels, but I can't find any info. on how they are on the track or if there are any issues. I'm planing on using factory lugs and torque to 150.

I have. They were fine for the 3 day track weekend on a track pack 350. Caliper clearance was tight and track buggers and debris would wedge in there from time to time. Another concern is longevity. How long they will be good for? I don't know. If I were going to regularly track, I think I would invest in a set of forgelines. Spun forge is not the same as billet forged/CNC machining and for that reason, I probably wouldn't want to be in it for the long term.

I still have my set on HR 361 for DD duty. My moment of decision was chugging along at 170MPH and thinking to myself, what's the weak link in the chain here? I realize the cost of the quality wheels, but they cost for a reason. Moving forward, I don't think I will ever be tracking a car with aftermarket inexpensive wheels again. I can't imagine a wheel failing at those kinds of speeds.

Just my opinion

Tracking them with no issues,

Season on 6GR 7 spoke 19x11 ET50 square.
Plenty of time riding curbing, and some off/on.
No cracks showing at edges on backs of spokes or rim lips.
Switching to 18s and will strip the finish off backs of spokes to hit with dye penetrant.
Would post back up if I find anything, but I think these are good to go.
Glad they didnt make them any lighter.
The spoke thickness and alloy appears to be good on mine and I trusted them at 158 coming off high bank at TWS into turn 1.
Its more violent then it appears in videos to upset the chassis at that speed...

I've heard of a lot of people using them on track and I've personally used them for a few track days with no issue.

No issues here...

On MSSP's...

On Cup2's...

However, I'm pretty sure you can't use the factory lugs.

Are using Gorilla lugs?

Ignore the black ones...

We do have a Track owner up North Cal with over 5 Mustangs on the Project 6GR wheels with no issues at all but positive feedback. You can say they are Track tested and quality proven.
Many of our GT350 family members track them with full confidence.

I will attach a few images of a fully rotatable 19x11 squared setup which requires extended studs, front sapcers and open ended lugs. Go here for more info:19x11 track setup

Can I use the factory lugs with a R fitment on a non R?

No pictures , but I have 2 track days on them, no issues what so ever... I only have one set of wheels, I put her to sleep in winter, so it's summer tires only on these. Stock MPSS for now, they were great if not edging on exceptional in wet.

Planning to do more track days actually

Would the 30mm eibach spacers with pre-installed studs work?

You will need aftermarket lugs. That we can provide.

For track use we would recommend using individual APR studs (American made) for quality protection and individual hub centric spacers. 30mm would be a bit to aggressive. The ones on the GT350 are 25mm.

Zoom in on the photo. They look like carbon fiber OEM to me. Hell, I can even see the ceramic coating on the front wheels once I zoom in.

The one above is the 6gr wheels on the street

So, the driver uses CF wheels for the track and 6GR wheels on the street. Sound familiar?​
