I’m trying out a new tire/wheel setup for the track and need some feedback about the minimum clearance between the tire sidewall and strut. With a 25mm spacer I have 2mm clearance. I have driven on the street with them and there is no rubbing...
Wow, 10,000 miles? What is happening to it? What is breaking? How have your transmission fluid temperatures been? Did Ford replace several under warranty when it was new? (see full post)
I run Apex 19 x 10" wheels. If you get them on one of the sales they cost about the same as a set of tires. It was worth it to me to be able to run tires until they are gone and switch mid weekend versus replacing them early to make sure I had...
Good idea on the one piece driveshaft. My mustang felt noticeably quicker on acceleration due to the less rotating mass when I installed one
*Edited to add*

My 2017 is also moving to the Right during braking most noticeably on the braking after the long straight:It's doing it for some time actually. I would advice you to first start by checking your rear wheel hubs because the bouncy feeling...

I got Dean @ Kohr to remove the oem bushings and press in the delrin ones. Also installed the maximum Motorsport bump steer kit and...
I get my track wheels (3) in the back with a rear seat delete and 1 in the trunk (2021).Everyone loves apex but I went with Konigs and am very happy for a lower cost (23lbs each)Its a PITA to change wheels at the track, but I do it. (see full post)

Yes I know I want DS2500 for the rear only. Would you by any chance have a part number for those of old packaging or something? The OEM rear pads from my dealer were not DS2500 I suppose because they faded very quickly and left deposits on the... (see full post)
