HSV GEN-2 Wheels – Specs, SV Panorama Design & Modern Holden Options
The HSV GEN-2 wheel design represents the final evolution of one of Australia’s most iconic performance lineages.
Inspired by the VF GTS Gen-F2, this design reflects the culmination of decades of HSV engineering — where performance, refinement, and visual precision reached their peak.
Released in 2015, the Gen-F2 marked the last chapter of Australian-built HSV performance sedans, making its wheel design both historically significant and instantly recognisable.

The Final Evolution of HSV Performance
The Gen-F2 represented the final refinement of the VF GTS platform — a vehicle that already stood at the peak of Australian performance engineering.
Rather than reinventing the formula, HSV focused on:
- Subtle design improvements
- Enhanced visual presence
- Increased refinement across key components
The wheel design followed this philosophy — evolving rather than replacing what already worked.
The SV Panorama Wheel Design
At the centre of the Gen-F2 update was the SV Panorama forged alloy wheel, a design that introduced subtle yet meaningful changes.
- Revised spoke geometry for a more modern look
- Increased visual depth and surface definition
- Stronger emphasis on width and stance
While visually similar to the Gen-F, the Panorama design is immediately recognisable to enthusiasts as a more refined and contemporary evolution.
Staggered Fitment & Performance Impact
The GEN-2 wheel featured a wider staggered setup than previous generations:
- 20x9 front
- 20x10 rear
This wider rear configuration:
- Accommodated larger tyres
- Improved grip and traction
- Delivered a more aggressive rear stance
The design maximised the visual effect of the wider rear wheels, giving the Gen-F2 a planted and purposeful presence on the road.
A Design Built for the Peak of Performance
The GEN-2 wheel was designed for a car that was already legendary.
Rather than focusing on radical change, it refined the details:
- Balanced proportions
- Clean but complex spoke structure
- Strong visual weight
Every element contributed to a wheel that felt appropriate for HSV’s most powerful production vehicle ever.
