I know a lot of people don't like the PP1 wheels and change them out but I love them
When my 2019 PP1 was bought back from Ford I had a set of regular GT wheels and tires on it because I was ceramic coating the PP1 set. Ford had the car 7 weeks and I never saw it again and they didn't ask for them back lol. So when I got my 2020 first thing I did was swap them out so I have a spare set with 350 miles on them when these wear out

They look alright, I just think 1/2" of stagger isn't enough to justify stagger. They are also fairly heavy when compared to relatively cheap aftermarket options, if I remember correctly.
They are not fairly heavy they are to fucking heavy lol
I just like the looks don't liked they are staggered but my plan this spring is to put the extra set of fronts on rear and wear them out playing then swap the fronts to rear and wear them out playing
Then run the same size all the way around and sell the 4 front wheels to someone with bald ass tires on them:like:

Installed VLand euro lights and DD 4th brake light kit. I didn't like the way the stock red lights looked on an orange car, but I wasn't sure about the clear lights either. Don't think I would have used them on my DIB, but after seeing them with orange I think they look great. I was thinking of getting the GT badge painted orange but now I'm thinking it looks better as is with the tail lights. Or even maybe go with the euro style with the faux gas cap. Just waiting on the clear side marker lights now.

The stock clutch was terrible from the first moment I drove it. Don't know WTH Ford was thinking with that decision. Couldn't feel the engagement point at all. I called my buddy who has a 6spd after the test drive to complain and he said to check out the spring swap. A couple of days after I got the car home I stalled at a light, so I started researching the spring. Found a thread on here about just taking the stock one out entirely, I did that at 200mi and have driven the last 900mi without one. That was a night and day difference. The pedal was of course stiffer, but felt great. (My last manual car had an upgrade clutch so I was used to the stiffer pedal.) Anyway, I also read that over time not having a spring could cause wear. So for $20 I bought some piece of mind. It does feel a little lighter now, but the engagement point is still there. Easily the best $20 I've spent on the car so far; that wasn't more gas. 11/10 would recommend.

Edit: here's a good video compares all three configs:

I would keep the chrome GT. Looks perfectly balanced with the clear tails. :clap:
