blacksheep-1 replied to the thread How come nobody rocks the stock 18 inch wheels on 2014 mustang gt? I.First off, try Apex, since they support TMO, and they are a reasonable choice at a decent price, if you go full on kill mode the Fordgeline is your choice. Everyone I know uses an 18 inch wheel, even the current Gt4 cars.. I'm trying to remember... (see full post)-

Like.Guys,Looking for an 18x10 with 285 or 19x10 with 285/295 setup. What's a good budget wheel and tire combo for the street? I've been looking at wheels this morning and didn't really see what I was looking for. Years ago I had some SVE Drifts... -
blacksheep-1 reacted to mavisky's post in the thread How come nobody rocks the stock 18 inch wheels on 2014 mustang gt? I with Like.Primarily it's due to them being so incredibly narrow given the heft of the vehicle. With a few basic mods you can fit an 18x11 wearing a 295-315 under the fenders and that provides you with significantly more grip than the 18x8 and their...

blacksheep-1 reacted to stevbd's post in the thread How come nobody rocks the stock 18 inch wheels on 2014 mustang gt? I with Like.Just a note that the base 18” wheels fit over the 4p brembo calipers using spacers. I use this combo for my 235/18 snow tires on a 2011. Which is also a fun setup for the occasional skid pad/car control parking lot days.
I suggest you go through my Build thread there are 8 seasons of track days and knowhow on becoming the fastest American Car on track in Bulgaria (The current American Muscle Fest finished today and still fastest only car coming close is a modded...- TeeLew replied to the thread S550 wing choice.I think this is a completely under-appreciated rule. I've got a spare deck lid and plans to fit an adjustable spoiler on the back. Put a 4-5" Al spoiler on a piano hinger. Run it down for the street & up for the Auto X. Be able to add a Lexan...

mpgainer posted a reply to the lap time of 1:31.640 by mpgainer on track configuration Thunderbolt at track New Jersey Motorsports Park.I use track mode and leave advance track on. I have tried with it both on and off, and I don’t notice a difference. I find track mode allows for a good bit of slip. Enough that it’s allowed me to go completely sideways.

Zellion_GT reacted to 1 old racer's post in the thread Ford Performance Track Handling Pack Help with Like.Yes I do run Steeda. I chose these due to the fact that they only have camber adj. and I do my own alignments (Camber and toe). Since you already have a pp1 then I would also recommend the Steeda bump steer correction kit. A must for a dropped...-
Zellion_GT replied to the thread Ford Performance Track Handling Pack Help.If I do that though I don’t think I can’t put hose camber plates on the OEM strut? Either way I think a better solution is higher quality camber plates. Everything I’ve googled looks nothing like the one already installed. Rather get a nice one... (see full post)
You can see the surge tank here so will need a rear fire wall. Might as well chip some of the Mastic out.- TeeLew replied to the thread Suspension soft?.OK, first, I'm not trying to bad-mouth anyone. I talked to some guy up in Sonoma a while ago and tried to have a setup conversation for a friend who was getting some work done. The conversation started out with, "I like to set the car up...

For those of you that are badmouthing Trent, you should all shut your mouths. He was one of the guys that designed and developed Cortex with Filip. He didn’t move with Cortex because this is his home. Trent will do what you want to your car. He...
