Is there any concave-ness to the GTV01 in an 18x8.5? There are some badass photos on a Z forum a guy posted of his 18x10.5s. Just wondering if the 8.5 width will look anything like that?

Technically it will be 2mm more sunken in, but there's no way you'll be able to visually see 2mm. That's less than a tenth of an inch.
I'm a little skeptical of using spacers. That would put extra stress on the axle (bigger moment arm). I'm certainly no expert with wheels though. Never changed them before.

I pre-ordered GTV03 back in November (in 18x8.5). I'm using a vendor (not any mentioned in this thread) that has been reliable for the past 10 years which makes me think the delay is with SSR. Also the fact that you don't see any pictures online of GT's yet

But been so long that I pulled my old Advans out of storage and put them on the car with spacers...

If it's much longer I'm cancelling as it's just not worth it. The Advans took 6 weeks, I'm already at 6 months.

At times the manufacturer will be over whelmed with orders and some orders are sadly pushed back.

We were lucky on our shipment came in on time in the past.

One Order we have is expected to arrive in Mid-Jun (This is a different wheel from the GT Series)

Looks nice T_REX. I am waiting on my F01 to come in.

What tire are you planning on mounting?

My wheels will be in on Monday. Will not be mounted until June though. So far the pics I have been seeing, super happy with the GTV01 18x8.5 choice I made
