I bought a setup of the 19x10 squared M1HP for my 11 GT that I am building up for some track duty. I currently have 295/30/R19s on them with plenty of room to spare. If 295/35/R19 was offered in these specific tires I would have gone with that. I've had them out on track a few times so far and they felt smooth, no vibrations at speed.

Are those OEM pony caps?

Yes they are. Leftover from some old S550 PP1 wheels I had.
sorry to be off topic, but I'm still waiting for your review of the RP1 pads lol

Also adding thanks for the photos as well.

Iā€™m pretty set on this style of wheel but Iā€™m torn if I like the Wheel Replicaā€™s Platinum or LMRā€™s Graphite on my Kona Blue. I think the Graphite would be a little less in your face as the Platinum, but at the same time platinum would contrast nicely with a dark color like mine.

would love to get others input on this

The platinum were a little too bright for my liking at some angles so I powder coated them satin black. I would go with the graphite LMR so youā€™re not stuck with WRā€™s center caps.

Thanks, I looked at more pictures I could find online and I agree they look oddly bright in some pics, almost aluminum foil-y. They look good on your Grabber Blue though. Iā€™ll stick with the SVE. I had a good experience with their PP2 reps.

Not much talk about the GT500 replicas in this thread, but I recently saw some on an Eruption Green car. Looked great! Black wheels always look better in person than in pics.

How are those new Continentals on track?
I am very happy with the Continentals. In my opinion, they are an excellent "lapping" tire for the S197 and S550. The tire is purposed to be an endurance tire, which means you are not going to set any lap records and will probably be about 1 second slower when fresh, and probably 3 seconds slower after they heat cycle a bit compared to a Cup 2 tire. They are not as snappy as a Cup 2, but are very predictable an consistent - and grip is available almost right away, no need to spend a lot of time getting heat into the tires - a lap will do it.

Our cars, even with lots of negative camber, are very rough on the outside shoulder of the tire and these particular tires have a very, very strong shoulder - I am at 8 hours of track time with no signs of delamination yet. For comparison, I get about 4 hours of life out of Cup 2s. I get about 8 hours of life out of the Pilot Sport 4s, but they started delaminating at the should around 6 hours. My guess is I will get about 10-12 hours of track time out of the Continentals.

I just ordered a set of the SVE CFX wheels. This picture and the one in Cyber Orange did it for me. Canā€™t wait to get them!
