Same timeline really as the SM-10s. Nothing for a couple months but in the Spring we plan to.

Anyone run the 19x11.5 56 with a 325/30 on a regular GT? Any rubbing? The pics on here only seem to be on 350's

There is nothing different about the rear fenders/fitment from a GT to a GT350. They will work well, if you need that much tire. Around -1.5* or more of camber is recommended out back with it.

seems like most people are going with 19" wheels.. im actually looking into the ec-7 in a 18" wheel for a street set-up. guessing the 19" wheel just fits the look of the car better ? guys happen to have any side- by-side pictures of a s550 on the 18" compared to 19"..
thanks..

this is 18. I think 19 looks better for Street usage. 'Fill the fender better.
You also want to choose the wheel size base on what tire you want. some are available in specific sizes.

Here's an article I wrote on the subject a couple years ago, but it all still holds true today. In the middle of the article, you can find a picture we cropped of 18" and 19" EC-7s side by side.

It's been raining a lot here, so it's been difficult to get pics while the car is clean. I took a few pics with my phone today and thought I'd share. I'm very happy with my EC-7 19x10 ET40/Conti ECS 285/35-19 setup. No rubbing or anything weird so far and I've got about 500 miles on the combo. The tire/wheel setup looks great and the car rides noticeably better than with the stock 20's, mostly due to the new combo being 11 1/2 pounds lighter per wheel. What's not to love?

CORY: If you PM me an email addy I will email you a zip file with all the pics I took this weekend. These are just a few.

Is the car lowered?

 

[mikes2017gt]

Yes, it is lowered. Steeda Progressive Springs/Pro Action shocks all around. They are either a 1" or 1.25" drop...can't remember off the top of my head, but pretty sure it's 1". I get zero rubbing, period. Full lock, going over speed bumps, etc. No rubbing. Very happy with this wheel/tire combo.

In this thread somewhere I posted pics showing the sidewall of the tire and how close it gets to the shocks. They clear by only a 1/4", if that much, but cleared is cleared.

Jon's 2015 GT is looking good on our 19x10" ET40 EC-7's in Race Silver wrapped in 285/35-19 BFG Sport Comp2.
