CLM 5150,
I just found this thread after I emailed Avant Garde yesterday regarding offset, etc.
I'm really tempted with these. Originally I wanted to run a 305/35 or 315/35 Nitto NT05 like with the 20x11 Steeda Spyders, but I really like this style wheel. I have the stock SVTPP rims on my GT500, so these are a lot closer to that look.
With the 40 offset, I'm thinking maybe the Nitto Invo 295/35 would be the best overall fit on the rear, and a 275/35 on the front. If I ever wanted to run a drag radial, possible the Nitto 555R in the 305/35.
Anyway, wondering if you could answer a few questions?
You mentioned that these are hub-centric, correct? Do you think the stock center caps will fit, or do you know what the center cap inner diameter is?
I know a lot of these wheels are made overseas, heck I think the stock SVT wheels are from China, but I'm curious about the quality of Avant Garde. My SVT's are Forged, so I feel like I will be trading down a bit with these, but as long as they can handle 550hp, I'd be ok with a low pressure cast or gravity cast wheel.
Also, would love to see your car in person, if your in So-Cal, I'm in the Fullerton area
Thanks!
Braden
