I've had 325s on my car since April of 2013. Forgestar made the wheels. They will fit without any modifications with the right specs.

That is awesome. I have thought about running 325s, but was told modification may be needed with Forgestars. Can you share the wheel specs? What springs and any other suspension mods?

How does that car hook up with 325's (with an 11" wide wheel in the rare you can put down 99% of that rear rubber)? My next modification after some suspension work are wheels/tires (by then my NT05R's should be about done).

Wheel Specs:
19x9 (+30mm)
19x11 (+53mm)

Ford K-Springs
BMR Rear Suspension


The car bites better with the 325s... But I still blow them out thru first and second gear with the pedal mashed.

i had 325s on my gt500 almost two years ago. but mine, and the wheels on the Boss in the OP sit in more than yours. yours are sticking out too much. if they were on my car they'd be tearing my fenders up with how low it sits.

Tires are flush with the fenders and I have GT500 mud guards on the back which protects the back bumper. I have no issues with scratches or dirt being kicked up. I ran the offset as aggressive as I could because I prefer that stance over the tires being fully tucked.

The boss and wheels look good, there is no need for this to turn into a back and forth with who was first doing what.

Any pics from the rear? I've ordered my F14s in gunmetal (9.5f 35mm, 11r 53mm) but just can't decide if I want the MPSS tire or the Invo in the same sizes you have. Have the Ford Racing springs 1.25F, 1.25R not installed yet. I will wait until I get the wheels and decide what tire I want before I install the springs and panhard bar. Your car looks flawless.

:eek: I think everyone is just in awe. Looks sick, great job. I know what I want now, just have to convince the wife to make it happen. ;-)

The real test is hard cornering when the suspension flexes, then you will get rubbing....

I would run a watts link with this....

I love the way that Boss looks so much that I can't stop coming back to this thread!

Steve -- would this older couple be upset if someone in FL duplicated their set up? :)
