Do 2024 S650 wheels have the same bolt pattern/offset as 2022 S550?
Bolt pattern is the same. Offsets I don’t know. I would assume the offsets are close if not the same as most of the aftermarket wheels that fit S550 also fit S650.

Another vote for LMR/SVE. They also run really good sales throughout the year and Black Friday/Cyber Monday.

I know you mentioned Velgen. I know they are pricey but I absolutely love mine. Lightweight, and look awesome IMHO. I got a wheel tire package from LMR back last spring... Buy once, cry once.

My almost new (<500 miles) y-spoke factory Mach1 wheels in 19x9.5/10 with new PS4s are also available.

SVE is a great deal for flowformed wheels. Apex are a bit higher quality in design and in the details/paint and probably will have them in stock.

I love my Project6GR Seven wheels from the orginal preorder batch but they are lower volume so the wait time varies more, knowing the wait times people have had, not sure I’d send you there unless you can call and confirm they’re in stock. All of these are great mustang specific options which I personally own.

I’d pass on anything cast like OEM takeoff Mach1 or GT350 wheels (too heavy).

I think I'm going to go with the Aohdan AFF3.

Front - 20x9 +30 with 265/35/20 tires - this seems to push the outside of the tire out around 3/4" and is .3" taller than the PP1's I'm running.

Rear - 20x10.5 + 35 with 305/30/20 tires - this seems to push the outside of the tires out about an inch and is .5" shorter than the PP1's I'm running.

This makes the front and rear tires are almost exactly the same height.

I'm interested in your opinions as to pro's and cons.

Thank you in advance

I went from the stock PP wheels and tires to 305 30 20 on 11 wide wheels on the rear and the height difference is negligible. I did a small tweak in Forscan for the tire height and all is well. I went 275 35 20 on the front on 10 wide wheels. I think your plan should work well :thumbsup:

Just know they have a different hub size so you’ll need hub rings for them to fit properly.

I've been looking at a LOT of wheel ads and specs... man the wheel world has exploded in the past 15 or 20 years.

I'm not cheap but I like to get value in everything I buy.

I found Aodhan flow forged wheels that seem to have decent reviews and decent prices. But nothing for the S550 I can find.

Leads up to the question: where's the best value in what IS available?

Thanks in advance
I jave 2010 GT500 chrome wheels from American Muscle and love them. 19x8.5 in the front and 19x10 in the back

I daily drive my autocross mustang and don’t want wheels that will scratch up during DD.

should I go with Apex flow formed EC-7s, or SVE SP2/R357s?

I don’t want to spend a whole bunch just to scratch them up. I need a square 19x10 stance that can rock 285 Michelin Cup 2 Rs or 285 Michelin Pilot A/S

thoughts?

Either the Apex or SVE will be just fine. Depends on what style you like but either will work
