Mustang GT wheels on 370Z

shadow85 · 07-04-2021, 10:19 PM

Has anyone tried the OEM 2017 Mustang GT 19" wheels on a 370Z, does it fit properly?

Could you post photos if you got them?

Just want to check what it will look like, because I might pop them on for my engineering police defect removal. I don't have my OEM 370Z wheels anymore, and I can borrow my friends mustang GT wheels.

Different type of wheels. Ford wheels are lug centric. Ours are hub centric.
Never the twain shall meet.....

Judging from some of the specifications, Mustang wheels should fit fine on a Z34. The PCD is the same and the hub bore is larger. Make sure that brake calipers would clear and proper lug nuts are used (Z34 uses 12x1.25 and S550 uses 14x1.5). S550 wheels likely use cone-seat lug nuts and if your current wheels are not OEM, they're very likely already use proper lug nuts to fit the S550 wheels.

Depends on your definition of "fit fine". Sure you can mount them. But it'll be virtually impossible to get those wheels to sit centered on the wheel hub. It'll be like driving unbalanced wheels that can't be balanced. Definitely not advisable...

The lug nuts with cone seat will center the wheels just fine. The HRE wheels I have on mine were built for an Aston Martin, they are centered by cone-seat lug nuts, no wobble.

Hmm ok, i think it will just be more safe to use factory 370Z wheels for the inspection then remove them after wards and put my works back on.

No need to go out of the way to fit mustang wheels just for one day of use.
