You can purchase and install the UP stainless steel brake line which come with low profile bolt.Can someone provide the specs on this bolt?
Thanks!
Jamie, on some of the pics the lugnuts seem to extend very far out, while others appear to be more flush. What's driving that, and how do I get closer to the a flush look with the lugnuts on the SV104s? I'm planning on covering them with gloss black caps, but I'm coming from 20+ years of Audi ownership where lug bolts are used and they are flush within the bolt opening, a look I vastly prefer.
All of our wheels including your SV104 are design be safe to use around the track@SignatureSales - hi Jamie. I had a question I hope you can answer.
I know you guys for some reason do not give out wheel load ratings, but I have to choose whether I take my Martian Wheels to the track or my SV104 set. The Martians are rated at 1000kg for track duty on the S.
All I want to know is if the sv104 set is above or below 900kg load rated!
I figured that’s what you would say! Thank you but I don’t think that’s the assurance I’m looking for.All of our wheels including your SV104 are design be safe to use around the track

If you didn’t know all cnc forged wheels that are custom offset and width do not publish a load rating. Go check with HRE, ANRKY, MV Forged, AL13, etc . They all test to FEA standards.I figured that’s what you would say! Thank you but I don’t think that’s the assurance I’m looking for.
It’s ok! I like the wheels I got from you. I’ll just use them on the street and use my Martians for track duty.
It is their way of skirting any legal liability should they fail.I figured that’s what you would say! Thank you but I don’t think that’s the assurance I’m looking for.

I’m not looking to start a parallel argument on the merits of the question, neither am I looking for a comparison of the industry, but thank you for providing oneIf you didn’t know all cnc forged wheels that are custom offset and width do not publish a load rating.

You also know that Martian wheel have lied about their wheel info right? Also they have lied to their customers and also sent wheels not fitting. There’s a large thread with info showing this on here and other groups but good luck “trusting” what they posted on their site versus an actual company like the ford performance racing school tearing up the track with their wheels. Even @MountainPass switched to Signature wheels for their track cars.

I guess the proof is not in the pudding itself but only on the label
Well, I wonder how the “it’s safe for track” response doesn’t pin liability the same way a rating doesIt is their way of skirting any legal liability should they fail.
A lot of wiggle room in safe for the track. They didn't say they were safe at XXX mph on the track. They could have meant just driving (i.e. not racing at high speeds) around the track. Though the first picture infers a lot...Well, I wonder how the “it’s safe for track” response doesn’t pin liability the same way a rating does
How about 170mph into a wall and not bent or cracked?A lot of wiggle room in safe for the track. They didn't say they were safe at XXX mph on the track. They could have meant just driving (i.e. not racing at high speeds) around the track. Though the first picture infers a lot...
Given how heavy the S is, it is definitely going to put some stress on the wheels. Realistically though the tires will to some extent limit the lateral force on the wheels as ultimately they will break away and lose traction. OTOH if they slip a lot and hit a curb so to speak, that could be all it takes.
Anyway I didn't buy my S to track so for me it is a mostly academic point. The S is one of those "numbers" cars where if you look at the spec sheet it sure is impressive but the fun to drive factor isn't in the same area unless you just focus on straightline acceleration. At least in a stock configuration.
I agree with you on the stock config part. In stock it’s definitely not anywhere close to ready for any hard driving.A lot of wiggle room in safe for the track.

Before I ask, lemme ask - you connected in any financial way to Signature?How about 170mph into a wall and not bent or cracked?
Still can’t believe people drinking Martian juice when they can’t even get offset right . They only make wheels for 1 car company smh. Skip to 7:40. Plaid studs does not have enough engagement for spacers which is 8 full turns on a M14 stud.
Anyways going back on topic. As I mentioned before shopping for wheels load rating is not provided for custom wheels that are cnc’d. This is not new news and everyone is free to go ask all the big companies on this.
