They will look great. Not a lot of fun to clean I can assure you of that!
So, imagine your PP2 wheels then cut the center out of another set of PP2 wheels. and put them behind yours, at a 36° angle offset. there ya geaux!
I don’t have the sources in front of me since I’m on my phone but I’ve read I multiple places the HP wheels are forged cast alum. I think @Charlemagne read it as well. It’s an odd way to phrase it certainly but it was something about needing to meet the strength requirements for tracking…..I think that’s what it saidWhere are you guys getting the OEM HP wheels are forged, they are cast. They weigh 1.7lbs lighter in the front vs. the regular wheel and 2.2 lbs lighter in the rear. Which means they are still heavier than hell.

That being said, buying wheels as an OEM wheel from a Ford Parts dept. is always more expensive than getting the wheels through Ford Racing. The $1000 price from Levittown totally sounds about right. They are the same wheels with a different finish.
BTW, even from the Ford Racing website it says they are the same wheels.
I would get these and have them powder coated to a Hyper Silver.
I’m trying to find the ford document that detailed it but it stated they were forged cast aluminum to save a couple pounds on each wheel. It was an early promotional piece from last year. My understanding was that the process was similar to flow forming where a casting can be forged, in the sense that it is strengthened through a mechanical process. Not a traditional forged wheel but something in between. I should have lid more attention when this was covered in school so I could better understand it
