Considering upgrading to an S550 -Wheel/Tire Question

[mustang5o]

I'm probably going to wait until spring and see if I can think I can swing a GT350 but if I don't think I can I might just move up to a new GT PP. If I go the GT PP route I had a few questions.

Does anyone know the weight of the PP wheels?

How about the offset, backspacing?

I was about to grab a set of 18x10 SVE drift wheels with Continental 305 takeoffs for tracking my 2014. If I did I was wondering if these would still fit on the new S550 platform?

Would they fit if I got new springs and lowered the car another inch?

If a spacer is needed that's fine as it would be needed for my 2014 as well. I just don't want to invest in them if they won't fit an S550. If I'm lucky enough to get a GT350 I'll worry about different wheels for that later.

Thanks

PP wheels weigh 33/34 lbs., F/R.
Porky to say the least.

Drift's are a good choice, they are lighter too. Another option are TSW's -light weight and look good.

You have a few good choices to work on the GT PP

Are you both talking about using 18's with the correct offset for larger tires (305 takeoffs)? Would there be a spacer needed (maybe just up front like on my 2014)?

FOrgestars no spacer needed 18x10

HRE FF15 18x10 no spacer needed, their 18x10.5 you need to run a 10 to 15 mm spacer
