SVE GT350 STYLE WHEELS!!!

[GThunder]

Exactly! And they'll fit. The ones shown on LMR were for a 2014.

These wheels are also forged and fit the S550 as well as the S197...

Both the MRR and SVE GT350's are "flow formed", and not forged.

Sharad- Is that a PP?

No spoiler delete or Brembo's...doesn't appear to be.

No sir. Intentionally ordered a base model. It's getting a lot of mods... ;)

I should have looked at the brakes. My mind was stuck on non PP sitting slightly lower than the PPs.

I'll jump in since there aren't many pics of these out there yet. I didn't want to post these pics because it pains me to post a pic of my car at stock height, but my coilovers haven't arrived yet, so here you go! 20x10 +40 SVE GT350s in Charcoal, with 275/35-20 NT555G2, squared fitment.

Random commentary. I've spent years in the wheel & tire industry. Last year, I had $8,000 worth of Forgelines/Nittos on my 2011 5.0. So I know what's good and what's not. When you buy a set of wheels from LateModel Restoration for $950, you're not expecting Forgeline quality. But I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these wheels for the money. They are an incredible value! As previously mentioned, they're "FlowFormed" like all of the cool kids' wheels lately, so they aren't heavy at all. I feel that they are attractive, the finish looks good, the fitment is spot on (a lot of people go with +45 or even +48, which I think is too high), and they're hub centric. I'll also mention that they took very little weight to balance out, which I usually only find on higher end forged wheels.

That's a sweet looking combo.

Could MPSS 285/35/20s fit up front with that offset? I know the Michelins run a bit wide usually.

I suspect that they would. I just hopped out and slid my hand back behind the front tire. I can get my fingers between the strut and the tire. It's tight, but a finger's width of room.

any pictures of these installed?

Check out the LMR website for each wheel color, there are a few pictures.

And you don't get any rubbingon tight turns?

How about a pic from the front or back looking down the side of the car showing the profile? I can't decide if I like these or the DF5 more and would like to see how "agressive" the offset is on these with a 20x10 square setup.

Thanks

I should have been more specific. They are both Rotary Forged aka flow formed.

 

[Sharad]

Not at all. There's probably half inch clearance to the strut. If that touches, you've got problems.

Super rough pic taken in my garage just now:



Clearly, it is not "aggressive fitment". But I think that's the point of these wheels. They're about as aggressive as the OEM GT350 wheels. The suspension can compress without the tires rubbing. This was important to me because I ordered coilovers the day I bought the car, and I'm about to drop it 2+ inches, so "poke" is not gonna happen. These are lower offset than a lot of the popular 10" wheels which are +45 to 48mm, but higher offset than the wheels which poke.

Thanks for the quick shots. They sit about identical to my stock wheels with 1" spacers all the way around, that I like. I DD mine in the nice months so I have decided to leave the stock springs on, it's nice to see how they look on yours with a stock setup. I'm just torn now, I love the black GT350 on Red, but every time I see a set of silver DF5's it pulls me back the other way. Thanks again for the pics.

I feel you. That's a matter of taste, like blonde vs brunette. There's no right or wrong answer. Me personally, I like a subdued look, so charcoal was perfect for me. Silver looks super bright to me (brighter than I wanted) and black disappears. If it helps, there are two pics of Black SVE GT350s at the bottom of this page:
