Taxfree Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 My 2012 GT500 is equipped with the SVTPP. I took it to the track for the first time recently an ran approximately 30 laps on a 2.15 mile road course throughout the day. I would like to use slicks from here on out instead of trashing the G2s that it came with. I have an additional set of SVTPP wheels to use as a track set. My question is can I run the 20" SVTPP wheels on the front without running into any clearance issues and will it affect (in a negative way) the handling characteristics of the car. I don't want to upset the designed balance of the car. Any advise will be greatly appreciated. I have also considered running the 19's on all four corners as well. Finding slicks that are the same size as the G2's is proving to be very difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelSteeds Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 You would need to run spacers to fit the 20" wheels on the front. Another member here is doing this with his car and running a full Grigg's setup.

TrakRat Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 That's me! Bad news to report.... I made an error and 1/4" spacer is not enough. I'm buying a set of 3/8" spacers now and longer studs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
