    Being hub centric means not having to deal with hub rings or adapters and offsets designed for the S550 allow for aggressive tire fitment that don’t poke or sit too far in. Icing on the cake is the factory centre cap fits many of their wheels.

    Running a 285/35/19 square on SVE wheels for track use is no issue at all. I currently run that up front with a 325/30/19 rear on the street without any problems.

    I like that these wheels are flow formed as well. Stronger than standard cast

    I was looking at those, and would certainly prefer 10" over 9.5", but by the time I get them here the price will be almost double what I'd be paying for the Fast Wheels ... not sure that I can justify that. Would rather support the Canadian company, even if they are in Quebec! LOL The owner of Fastco is a very nice Anglo gentleman who happens to be a Mustang lover and racer too.

    2017 GT purchase

    I was looking into it and found those fast wheels are flow formed also for their competition series. Strange they only offer 9.5” wide wheel in 19” diam. They have their own fast race team and I’d be surprised if they only run 9.5”. If they made a 10.5 I’d buy them for sure! Maybe they do make them for their race team. Might be worth looking into Ed.

    They run 18x10" FC04 on their S197 race cars which are limited to using the 14" brakes. I'd love if they had 19x10.5", I'd do those as a square setup. There are some 18s out there (Apex Racing wheels) that will clear the 15" PP brakes, but the Fast wheels do not unfortunately. The 18" Apex wheels might end up being another purchase later to put track-only tires on. They are light and flow-formed but also $500ish per corner.

    You need to get in on a group buy. Check out track mustangs online on Facebook. Apex wheels are the ones I really want. Lots of size options and good quality

    I would have went with these most likely except for the fact that the 'R' wheel doesn't even come in 'R' Spec which I think it ridiculous... maybe they thought nobody would buy that size? Would have been a hell of a lot cheaper than the wheels I went with (which are now stuck at the customs FFS) were supposed to be here tomorrow...that's not going to happen now
