Does anyone know of a source for 9" x 19" or 9" x 20" wheels that will clear the GT350 Brembo caliper housings, and have the correct 30 mm front offset, 62 mm rear offset? I will drive my GT350 all year in the north and want narrower tires for winter.

Were you ever able to figure out a solution for this? I'm experiencing the same dilemma.

The OEM GT350 specific part numbers for winter wheels are:

FR3Z-1007-T - GT350 9" front
FR3Z-1007-U - GT350 9.5" rear

I just found out the hard way that those wheels -which every parts website claims are for the GT350- do not actually fit over the GT350 brakes. They're just silver GT performance pack wheels as far as I can tell. I'm open to alternate suggestions for winter wheels if anyone has any. @JAJ what wheels are you using?

Well, that sucks. The rims on my car are 2013/14 GT500 Base rear rims - 19x9.5 ET44. Fronts take a 12mm or more spacer to clear the brakes. I'm running a 35mm front spacer with OEM GT350R front hubs with the long studs so I can use OEM lug nuts on all four corners. You can get this exact rim with a black finish from FP as M-1007-SA1995MB.

I thought I'd update this thread in case anyone else has this question. I wasn't able to find any affordable narrower wheels that fit, so I ended up getting a set of 2019-2020 gt350 wheels and put 275 40 r19 Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 winter tires on all four. It's worked great so far.

Pictures please. Without knowing what the actual tread width of those tires are, it’s hard to visualize.
Thank you

You got 275's to fit on the stock wheels? Nice. My dealer wouldn't even install 295 winter tires in the rears. Had to go to a chain shop for the install.

I didn't even try to go to a dealer. I had Kal Tire (a Canadian company) install them. It seems like they're the only ones around here that can order Nokian tires. When I ordered I made sure to ask if they would install a 275 on an 11" wide wheel. They said that was the narrowest tire size they would do on an 11".
