GT350R wing for Regular GT?

[Shadow277]

Anyone know what the affects are to adding a 350R wing to a regular GT is?
I'll admit I love the way it looks and want to add it to my car. However, I also want it to function and not just be a drag.
Will it bring more downforce? Do I need a wind tunnel to tune it precisely? Should I have a shop install it? How will this affect tires feeling greasy?

Any and all information is welcomed!

Add downforce: yes
Need wind tunnel: no
Shop install: up to you.
Greasy tires: ?? Tires get greasy due to temperature which is caused by friction and if you add downforce, you'll be increasing the normal force on the rear tires therefore increasing the friction. So I guess yes, the tires would get greasy faster but there's also a greater force pushing down on them for more grip.


Also, this only applies to a carbon 350R wing. If you get a fiberglass one, it'll deflect under load and you'll lose any benefit

Decrease in fuel economy. Not that that's an issue I am too worried bout. Just saying...

Followed a guy down the highway with a knock off GT350R wing clone and it was flapping up and down constantly. 0/5 stars.

I had the Anderson Composites GT350R wing on my 2016 GT. It did not flop in the wind. Good quality.
