Brembo Track Pack Wheels Staggered (Factory Color)
Hey guys. I have been wanting a factory look for my '14 GT with the staggered setup. I have looked everywhere but no one sells these wheels with the same factory paint (that I'm aware of). American Muscle sells replicas but are black and charcoal in color. I wanted the 19x8.5 in front and the 19x10 in the rear.
Well I decided to take a chance and bought the black ones from American Muscle and have them painted. Here is the finished result! The color turned out pretty dang close... It is a shade lighter but I think it still turned out pretty good. If you're interested in doing the same thing I'll give you the contact information. He is located in Troutman NC. Cost me about $125 per wheel.
Also the factory center cap will not fit in the AM wheels.
EDIT: Front wheels are 19x9, not 19x8.5

I love what you did with the paint job and I can't wait to see them on the car.
What tire are you planning on running?

Hey Will thanks I can't wait to get them on the car! I think I decided to go with the Mickey Thompson's. 255/40/19 and 285/35/19. I was really going back and forth with getting a 305 in the rear but I'll see how I like these 285's.

The factory wheel is a 19 X 9, as far as I know. Another option would be send 2 factory wheels off to be widen and then use spacers to center the wheel where you want it in the rear fender.

Found the info on this here:

I thought about doing this, but figured it would be too much hassle. I didn't dig deep enough though to find out the cost.

They are a great, reasonably priced street tire that definitely gets the job done.
Good Choice!

I have always loved the Brembo wheels too. Your wheels look great. I have been going back and forth between these and the Boss LS wheels.
May I ask what you ended up doing with the center cap? It looks good in the pics.

Hey thanks! I will probably end up using the AM center cap. I don't think they look bad and they aren't that noticeable I don't think. I also was debating on the Boss LS wheels, but I decided I want my car to look as stock as possible! (Especially when I SC the crap out of her) haha.
