  1. S197 GT500 19x9.5 wheels on S550?

    Got it - appreciate all of the info.
  2. S197 GT500 19x9.5 wheels on S550?

    Yep those are the ones - thanks.Is the spacer needed for clearing the outside face of the caliper?
  3. S197 GT500 19x9.5 wheels on S550?

    I've seen random photos online of S550's running the 2011-2012 GT500 PP wheels, but no evidence of anyone running this front fitment from the 2013-2014 GT500: https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-1007-SA1995MBI'm looking to run these square, and the +44 offset seems reasonably close to the...
  4. Camber plates - which ones to get

    Thanks for the very helpful guidance and info @JAJ and @OPMustang Tim. Those options both seem like a good fit for me since they retain the OE rubber spring seat. In comparing them it appears that the Steeda plates are capable of a greater degree of camber adjustment?Steeda: "adjust camber...
  5. Camber plates - which ones to get

    A bit of a thread revival here, but I’m also in the market for camber plates now for a Base ‘17 GT with stock suspension as I just installed a 19x9.5” + 275/40R19 square setup. So I’m eager to optimize and preserve my new tires for 3-4 HPDE’s in the upcoming year.My concern with these...
  6. Anyone running RTR Tech 5 or Tech 7 Wheels?

    Received the RTR wheels, and they look pretty good. FWIW brake clearance looks great on my base 4pot brakes, and so hopefully they'll clear the 15" PP Brembos as well.Weight is just under 23lbs:~70mm center bore/hubcentric:They even have a bit of anti-slip knurling for the tire bead...
  7. Anyone running RTR Tech 5 or Tech 7 Wheels?

    AM claimed that they'll even clear the GT350 brakes, and so I went ahead and ordered them and will report back with their weight, measurements, etc.
  8. S550 Front Tow Hooks are here!

    I just realized that I never reported in on this install. It was my first time removing the bumper cover and the 40ish clips and screws, and so all together this project took me the better part of a day, including installing some Quik-Latch Mini's after I broke the bumper tab on the driver side...
  9. Anyone running RTR Tech 5 or Tech 7 Wheels?

    I've got a 2017 Base GT, and am planning to upgrade to the OEM PP 15" Brembos once I find new wheels.So does anyone have any experience with either the Tech 5 or Tech 7 version? I'm curious if they have good clearance for OEM PP brakes, are they hubcentric, and how much they weigh? I'm...
  10. Vorshlag 2018 Mustang GT + S550 Development Thread

    Great info @Fair - really appreciate you sharing and documenting all of this. For the few of us who have the Base GT brakes and aren't ready to move to larger rotors/new calipers, would these Baer rotors be a viable option? It appears they have standard venting...
  11. S550 Front Tow Hooks are here!

    What's required to install one of these on an S550? Do you have to remove the bumper, or can you just drop the air dam and access the crash bar from underneath?
  12. APEX Is Back And Ready To Build A Better Mustang Wheel

    Appreciate the response and info. I'm VERY interested in a set of SM-10's, and look forward to more updates as we get closer to 2018. I've also already submitted a survey response, but let me know if there's anything else I need to do in order to convey my interest.
  13. APEX Is Back And Ready To Build A Better Mustang Wheel

    Any ETA yet on SM-10's for S550?
