Is the inverse true? Will GT350 wheels fit on a GT500? Just wondering if I upgrade to a GT500 can I take my wheels with me, mine are close to the weight of the GT350R CF wheels, but aren't CF. I honestly can't stand the look of the GT500 wheels, Don't mean to offend anyone, they just look boring to me like the new vette wheels.

not for sure but I think you need 20’s to clear the brakes on a 500. Getting a 500 was in the back of my mind as well when I bought these. Will be nice to have an extra set that can go back and forth if I do end up getting one.

GT500's have larger front brakes and smaller diameter rear brakes when compared to the GT350. The rear brakes are smaller because they now have the electronic parking brake on a secondary caliper compared to the internal parking drum brake of the GT350. This means 20's up front for GT500's, but they can easily run 18's in the rear for drag setups without changing the brake setup.

Is there something different with the hub/offsets of the GT500 versus the GT350? If you look at the GT500, the rear OE wheels dont poke at all and actually sits quite a bit inboard. But when the same GT500 wheels were put on a GT350, suddenly, the rear wheels poke out an inch. @Jbraun2828

Yes offsets are different between the 350 and 500 wheels. I think they’re mentioned on the first page

Ohh.. so it seems the gt350 hubs are further outwards hence the need for higher offset wheels on the gt350 no?

Those look great on your car, but wow. I thought my OE 350 wheels were boat anchors.
I was ready to start looking for take offs until this came out. Instead I saved 2.5lbs on each front wheel/tire going from OEM 19’s and Cup2s to Project 6GR and PS4S. The rears weigh they same. If I had to run the GT500 wheels, I’d run 295/315 Cup2s but the weight is a big problem for if I expect to track with it.

For the life of me, I don't know why almost EVERY wheel sold they don't just advertise the weights.

These look EERILY similar to SV902s.
Ya they do. Looks like they took the 902's and modified them a little bit to make them special for SA.

@50 Deep did you manage to get in with SA???

Nah, that is not our wheel. It is a look alike for sure. Our SV902 is a bit more classy to my eye.

  • The product you are trying to view no longer exists.
Whoopsie.

I've heard that a couple of different companies use the same facility overseas. I think BC Forged and Signature come out of the same factory. Could be someone else is using similar profiles, just tweaking where the extraneous material is removed.
