What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[kiksbutt]

It's a 305/30/19 mounted on a 11" wide wheel. +52 offset if that helps too.

Is that 11" all around? How much that run? MRR website doesn't show for 19"

GT strut bar. Took about five minutes after I realized the convertible does in fact have the metal braces already installed. Google said 41 ft lbs, but I went to 50 by mistake. Any worry about that?

Your lucky you didn't snap off a fastener. Some guys have had one snap when torquing to the 41 ft-lb spec.

Yeah, I see that now :( - all four are tight at 40 lbs, but I haven't driven more than a mile or so. From what I gather, if they were to break, it would be while tightening them down, not from lateral or twisting forces while driving? I can picture hitting a speed bump or angling up a driveway and hearing a stud snap in half lol

Nothing to the Mustang per se, but I did buy her a garage.

Way to go Mik, that’s great news. Very happy for you. Where did you land?

You're fine, they wont snap off while driving around.

Thank you! Actually back in South Jersey. We bought a palace for what would get us a hovel in Long Island.

How far South Jersey? So people are fleeing New York as the rumors go, eh?

Jersey just voted in to legalize Marijuana, so I suspect this State is gonna get crammed real soon.

Car looks awesome, are you running 30 profiles front and rear?

Northern Jersey will get packed because that's how NY rats think. We're going to Gloucester. Ironically, our agent told us that people from Jersey are picking up and moving to the Carolinas. It actually made sense considering the tech boom that's going on around there. When I visit my mom, we drive around the area and see these brand new corporate campuses all over.

Yup, that would be me. Queens, NY, Bergen County, Middlesex County, & now Myrtle Beach.

So now that your adjacent to Philly are you going to root for the Philly’s, Eagles, 76‘er’s & Flyers?

Yes, 11" true square set up with +52 offset. Maybe they don't put the price on due to all the finishes available(?). They have amazing finishing options that are way cheaper than some other brands.

If you give them a call and tell them I sent you from the forum im sure they'll work with you a little bit. They're pretty reasonable over there.

Thanks man! Yes, 30 series all around. This is my track set up though. Might eventually go to a 315 all around. We'll see.

I installed Rain-X wiper blades today on my car, had to look up Youtube videos on how to install it.

It was way easier for me to install the downpipe than those wiper blades.

Any spacers to make that work on both ends?

OPG, CS, and Procharger installed over the weekend!

Yessirrr! You have to run a 25 mil up front and went with FP hubs with extended lugs.

Hub install vid on you YT if anyone is interested in how to do that.

I grew up in SJ, so I've always been a Philly fan.

How are your tires not poking out of the fender wells up front???
