Having a hard time deciding between:

Signature One

To be honest, I don’t know if the Signature One will fit the GT350R but I will find out.

Thoughts?

If you're just looking for people's personal tastes I like the SV602 out of those. I like a little more "fork" in my wheel than the SV502, and the Signature One to me looks great on a super widebody build like that '69 ('70?) On their site, but I think the multipiece construction makes the wheel face look smaller in diameter.

Just one guy's opinions 🙂

Fred, I like all of the wheels shown but would lean towards the simpler look of the SV502 as it is much less busy than the other two wheels shown but encourage you to go with you gut feeling as you have to be happy with the end result.

Having said that what color are you planning to go with and does the SV602 also come in Black?

SV602's will need you to run aggressive camber in the rear due to the lip to avoid poke. Its tough to clear the rear brakes. Same as the Signature ONE's, but the lip wont be that wide though. It will look like this....

Im sure 50deep can chime in here.

That’s the wheel I’m leaning to. Yes, there are colors...

Looking at brushed smoked tint, brushed titanium or gunmetal.

I should note that I am going with a square setup for ease of tire choices as these will be purely road-going wheels.

I will also likely be going 20” so there is plenty of caliper clearance.

I’ve even been thinking of a color to the wheels to pay homage to the Heritage Edition schema but I think I’m going to steer away from that, unless I see something I think won’t look gaudy of take away from the car itself.

First one, the others look like a pain to clean!

I like the 602 myself. Something different from the stock look

Agreed that there is a fine line between accenting your car with some cool after market wheels which would not take away from the whole intent of the Heritage Edition Package versus a set of wheels that will look totally out of character based on the original intent of the Wimbledon White/Guardsman Blue Package.

If your intent is to stay as close as possible to the original OEM wheel look I suggest that the SV502 wheel in Gloss Black might be a good choice based on trying to envision that look on your R model.

Lastly, I like your idea of going with a square set up with respect to limited tire choices (sizes) therefore look forward to hearing back how your R model handles and feels with a square set up compared to the OEM set up?

Hard to beat those factory looks but Terrance’s (@50 Deep) wheels are works of art. They even have a nice 6-spoke, but I’m sure it’s heavier than the 502, which I think is what Ford Performance uses at the track events.

Personally not a fan of multi-spoke rims. That being said you don't like the look of the SV902's?

I like the SV502. I like when the spokes go all the way to the edge of the wheel. It makes the wheel look bigger.
