Possible spare solution.

[DrumReaper]

I have an R so I didn't want to drive outta town on a trip with my wife with the CF wheels. Thankfully, I was able to procure a set of Forgestar CF10's and shod them with Hankooks.

Back when the 6g R replica wheels came out, Paul made two hubcentric 25mm spacers for the 6g wheels and I kept those even though I sold the wheels later on.

I have asked Forgestar to send me another 19x11 wheel with the rear offsets and I plan to carry that with me on trips, along with the 25mm spacer (in case of a front flat) so that I have a fix for a flat on the road. As for the jack, just a basic stock Mustang scissor jack and since I use the factory lugs, I keep a torque bar and a 13/16" deep well socket.

Lemme know what you guys think.

It works. It looks like there is Spare they use over seas I think if we we had that part number of I'd go that route.

Talk to user UAE247. He has a spare. I think it is required in his country. He shows a picture of it in the post. "Limp Mode with Track Package (Yas Marina Circuit)"

Yeah I saw his posts but some of us already have access to aftermarket wheels. Any rear wheel/tire coming mob will work with a front spacer, I think, but would be good to know from some of the site engineers if that is doable given the difference in thickness at the center of the wheels.

Sorry, I don't have any insight into the GT350 wheel fitment, whether a front wheel will fit on the rear, or visa-versa.

On my old track car, back when I used to do this kind of thing, I had big brakes on the front, which required 17" wheels. If I were to get a flat on the front (street driving, as I always had another set of wheels/tires with me for the track), I would have to move a rear wheel to the front and put the 16" spare on the rear. If the GT350 allows for a similar swap, then you only need to size the spare for the missing wheel, whether it be front or rear.

BTW - That is my wife driving at Watkins Glen circa 2006, with her instructor.
