Post Pix of your S550 with aftermarket wheels and tires

[rvshehata]

Drove to work yesterday on the Drag Pack (Billet Specialties)

I believe I saw you driving down 54 earlier this week?

:lol:

I am sure it was me. I live in Odessa and drive SR54 to and from work everyday.

indeed!...what size wheels and tires?...what brand springs?

Advanti DST HY Hybris
20x8.5 40mm
255/35-20
25mm spacers from American Muscle
Steeda Ultralight Linears

It's a very commuter spec setup (I'll never track it, drag it, sweet JDM drift it, or be a getaway driver in it), but I'm pretty happy with them. They weigh about 22lbs each in this size, and my optimistic butt dyno says there's a noticeable difference in it's basic starting, turning, and stopping responses.

Where did you pickup the 20's? I see the 19's on TireRack -- but no 20's...

You have to game the system. Tire Rack doesn't list the 20" for the S550 because the front dust cover hits the center cap.

What they advised me to do, and what I ended up doing was using a 2012 Fusion to get access to the 20" size on the order form, and then specifying in the special instructions that car was a 2015 Mustang and to use all hardware (lug nuts, centering rings, etc.) for that model, not for the Fusion. Also confirmed with them I had spacers so the center cap clearance would not be an issue.

It's not optimistic. You are talking at least 11lbs of rotational mass at each corner. That's a significant difference, and easily felt.

I'd been looking at a staggered setup with the Advanti DST Catalan as well -- I don't see that when I configure for a Performance Pack Mustang anymore?

These look like the glossy and not satin versions. Am I crazy? I'm holding out for glossy but if these are satin that may be close enough.

Thanks. I am now very impatiently waiting for them to come in.
