    Forgestar vs Apex

    I ordered a set of CF5's last year from Vorshlag and experienced the same lack of communication and unanswered emails. I had to write a snippy demanding email to get a response. The response was professional and apologetic, but late none the less. I ordered my wheels on Dec 13th, 2015 and...

    Tire Pressure Sensor Fault

    They are band type - based on a couple of posts at SVTPerformance about changing from band to stem sensors on 07-09 GT500s - there are aftermarket valve stem sensors made to work with the 07-09 TPMS modules.

    The 18 x 10 BBS wheels clear the OEM Brembos w/o a spacer.Unless you have hogged out the strut mounting holes to increase negative camber, increasing negative camber via caster-camber plates has no impact on the wheel to strut clearance.A ~1/4" spacer may be needed for clearance with the...

    Tire chunking

    I would agree that intuition would say my tires look like they were over inflated. I drove the tires on track with at 40 psig, hot. So actually they were under inflated as per the target hot pressure of 41 psig recommended by Ford in Boss 302 Owners Supplement.
