Jaime,
50D sent me the same pic this morning via text those are mine going on my rapid red. I’m doing 305/20 and 315/20 on them I will fit check them without tires and post pics in a couple weeks after they arrive. Signature has been awesome to work with if you want new wheels they are the place to go
So you are doing the stock size tire then?

Curious if you are doing a square wheel, why not a square tire? Would the be rotatable if they were all square wheel & tire?

Please, please keep me in the loop :please:

Surfergeek’s Royal Series SV801 - GT500 spec 20x11.5 square / Brushed Bronze Tinted

The fun continues with the first set of Brushed Bronze Tinted SV801 to be completed. This is the GT500 spec 20x11.5 square, and equipped with the anti-slip bead knurling. Having 760 HP and amazing brakes I can imagine a decent amount of tire rotation happening on the rim during launches, cornering, or hard braking. This should eliminate almost all of that.

Looking Great! Now all I need is for my order to get pulled so my car is built.

Love the Cobra center caps too, classy touch!

Your thoughts on 11.5 in the front? Concerns?

What tires will you run on the 21"? 305/25 and 325/25?

What are your thoughts on 21x11.5 square setup with 325/25 on all 4?

thanks
In my experience the 4S has a pretty square side wall. Slightly Stretching a 30 series 4S is preferred over the 25 series and only because of rim protection from pot holes.

I am confident we can make the 21x11.5 square work, but managing the tire height is the key. Probably a 305/30/21 square as the first choice, then the 325/25/21 square second.

50D: Man oh man, those are some gorgeous wheels!
Thank you sir
I really like the black set.......

I will want to use my stock sneakers, what wheel width would you suggest? 11' front, 11.5' rear?

Did you pull these out, offset wise?

Could you please PM me an offer on these with the Shelby center cap decal?

Thanks,

Jaime
There is a decent amount of room before the wheel on the front of the GT500 is flush. 20x11 / 20x11.5 works, but with as far out as they can go the 20x11.5 square is also an option. You can go either way and reuse the stock tires. What we built is made to sit almost flush with the fender.

I will definitely DM you some info.

With the difference in offsets these 20x11.5 would need a front spacer to be square rotatable. Generally we would recommend that for track use, and in a 20x11 square.

Next week you should be able to bolt up and take some measurements.
No one has ordered 18s for the rear yet??
Not yet...... just waiting on you brother....

Thanks man. Look forward to you seeing them in person. Fingers crossed the build gets pulled soon.

Bloody O....Now that's a good looking rim and tire setup. I sometimes do not like the aftermarket setups, but your designs really do fit the form and function into the package.

Cu-do's for the work and a nod to your further success.

Looking good! Have not seen many Magnetic cars yet.
That center cap is on point, looking forward to owning a set of your wheels with my 500!

Thank you sir, I appreciate the kind words and vote of confidence
I love it!!!
What color is that wheel? Looks amazing on that Magnetic.
This is Brushed Triple Black Tinted. It works so well on Magnetic

18” rear wheels are available now. Building two of them with anti slip bead knurling for a drag setup would definitely work. I don’t see 17” clearing though.
Do you make 17-18” wheels yet? Could be an option or the rears?

Did some initial test fitting on the rear of the GT500. The caliper is much wider than anticipated. We will likely need to revise our own rear offsets by 3-5 mm.

If you have existing 20” wheels on your GT350 they will work in the front, but the rear will need a 12-15mm spacer.

Be back with some weight data soon.
