What did you do to your GT350 today?

[Deleted member 37397]

Sorry but the carbon fiber one looks exactly the same as Beith's one, just 100 bucks more expensive. There is a high chance that they come from the same supplier.. The only really beef I have with these wheels is that they are much heavier than stock. I don't know what they used to increase the thickness, but it feels like they used steel, it's that much heavier... I don't think it matters too much anyway, but it's the only thing I would have against.

I merely posted a link to a request for something besides Beith. I almost got hooked into looking for a new wheel, while they look nice, I don’t think I’d spend what these are going for. Interesting that they seem to weigh that much more than stock as well.

I kinda of agree, I was also on the fence ... but then I have in to temptation. Not only it looks better, but it handles much better than the stock wheel. End of the day, it's only money...

Is Beith the only way to go for steering wheels for our car, or are there other reputable, quality options?

DCT Motorsports is another option; very good quality. I had a custom wheel from them and very pleased. Just as others, pretty much any leather/CF/stitch/color combo you dream up can be done. I do however plan to spec out a CF/leather wheel from Beith this time for my new 2020. Recent review of member Epiphany's new Beith wheel was very convincing. Subtle differences in shaping wheel, thumb rests, angle where CF/leather meet, Flat Top option between some vendors.

my steering wheel is a full leather version from them. They even built up the 3 & 9 positions for my big hands. Quality is generally good. Note that he sends the steering wheel to China for the work. So whatever time estimate he gives, double it. Hard to get ahold of him for updates too. So if you are the kind of person who waits by the mailbox for a package then it might be a frustrating experience. But if you order it and forget about it then you will be pleasantly surprised when it does eventually show up.

Best thing I did was swap the upper controls from a 2018 regular Mustang. That put the volume controls on the proper (left) side. Drove me nuts having them on the right side.

Tim does great work. I think you are going to be very happy.

For all those that enjoy the art of “ heel and toe “ ; as our brake pedal can be a little far from the gas pedal? Or you’ve noticed that the gas pedal is a little low? Here’s an inexpensive fix ; Steeda wider gas pedal for track when the pedal comes down enough on the track after heating up ; then a hard foam rubber pad stuck over it with “right stuff “applied to it to raise the pedal when colder brakes around town . Hit the track ? Just yank the rubber pad off voila!

How do you like the finish, how does it look close by? since it's brush-on paint?
I like the idea of not taking the whole caliper out, you just paint while keeping it installed. Don't want to deal with pads, bleeding, etc..

It doesn't look like pro powder coated but came out pretty good imo. Biggest mistake I made was not waiting long enough for the paint to cure before applying the brembo decals (these are separate btw, not included in the kit). When removing the decal backing on one caliper, it pulled up a few spots of paint. Had to touch up, still looks fine. I didn't want to leave the car outside overnight sitting on jack stands. Also took the opportunity to really clean the wheels and ceramic coat them.

What product did you use to ceramic coat the wheels?

I stopped by the body shop today to check on the progress of my painted stripes for my 2019 RR , GT-350.
Almost there, looking like I am going to be driving it on Father’s Day.....
Happy Father’s Day to all you “Dads”.....!
