So I was on the fence about wheels but knew I wanted a square setup since I AutoX the car and would also like to be able to rotate the tires. I went from a PP GT on stock springs to Steeda's Progressive series with some Forgestar CF5V's wrapped in 285 Nitto NT555 G2 tires. They are 19x10 all around with a 3mm spacer in the front so the center cap clears the dust boot. Enjoy!

What offsets did you go with

What offsets did you go with

Chris,
I had contacted a couple places about doing custom Forgestars, but never got calls back even after being on hold with one place for 45 mins. So I just chanced it with the American Muscle stock (link below). I looked up the specs and calculated the needed offset/backspacing required to clear and determined that I would be fine with a 5mm spacer. Then when I got the wheels, realized the dust boots in the front were the only reason any offset was actually needed.

Anyway...+42mm offset, 181mm backspacing

Hope that helps,
Josh

Very nice! I car is DIB and I'm looking at the same wheels. Is the finish Matte black or something else?

It doesn't have the center caps in it, but this is all I have so far.
[MENTION=18488]NvrFinished[/MENTION], yeah, I wouldn't call it a complete matte since it has a VERY slight shine to it, but I think that is just the paint being the paint

Just got my '16 Premium GT fitted with these nice Bronze Burst 20" Avant Garde M590's. The tires are Kumho Ecsta GS 285/35/20 rear and 275/35/20 front.

Can anyone direct me to any pics with 20" and a 1" 4 corner drop? Considering dropping the car with a set of Eibach Pro's.

Also great thanks to Josh over at Get Your Wheels who was a HUGE help through some frustrating fitment issues!!
Super happy with their level of service!

Cheers!

Your car and my car are now officially brothers from another mother. Or something like that. :love: Those the 19x9.5?

Wheels are Ispiri, also known as Vertini RF1.1 in US, they weigh 10kg each so very light, 5.5kg lighter than stock PP wheel, haha.

They are 19x9.5 ET40 square setup, 3mm spacer rear and 5mm spacer front, no need for longer studs as still a full 9 turns on front and 10 turns rear so well within spec for M14 stud.

Tyres are 275/40/19 MPSS square, I like a lot of tyre wall, more grip, less noise, more compliance and generally just handles better than skinny tyres.

There is a reason why F1 cars have massive tyre walls. ;)
