Post Your Mach 1 Pictures

Creeping from the floodlight cam debating on if I should get off the couch and chip away at the break in period. I'll get some good pics once the spoiler gets delivered and it's ceramic coated.

Those are a set of SVE 357s, 19x10, square. 285/35/19 A/S Michelins.

The factory rim/tire combination is great, but they are for the track. I needed something a bit more practical for the street, especially in cooler temps in the Fall and early Spring. The second set also helps me preserve the original rims as best possible.

From the decals and striping, I consider the secondary car color to be black. I've already got dark titanium/graphite from the factory rims, so a black rim it was.

Regarding appearance and style, I often like upgrades and changes which compliment a car, that look like they could have come with the car. Subtle differences that can catch a persons' eye or make them look twice and think about it.

Washed the car a few times. They are not that difficult to keep clean. Will probably ceramic coat them in the future.

LMR and Steeda have several great choices in the flow-formed class, all pricing pretty close to one another.

Greetings,
I like your setup, I have my Mach 1, NON-HP coming in the next few weeks to Granger. I do not want the summer only tires and your setup looks great. I will not track the car.

My question is do you need any spacers or longer studs with this setup? Can I just get the 4 19x10 wheels you linked, Michelin All Seasons from discount tire, mount, balance, install and go and enjoy? Figured I would just sell the originals. I do want a square setup for rotating and longevity.

Also I have ordered a Dark Matter Gray car and am leaning towards Gloss Black instead of the Gloss Graphite? Does the collective agree with this strategy.

Thanks for you feedback

Yes.

I did not use any spacers or change studs. The new wheels and tires were a straight swap. 19x10s all-around. The 357s from LMR/SVE have a +35 offset. Buying as a set of four, LMR supplied the Gorilla Nutz. The package of Gorilla Nutz also comes with a supporting socket (Nutz are splined down the sides), which will slip into a 21 or 22MM (it's shaped to insert into either) socket.

I did need a bigger torque wrench, as the current Mustangs use a 150 lb/ft spec for wheel tightening.

Bought the 285/35/19 tires from Discount Tire. Had a detail shop mount and balance. In the future, I'll have the rims ceramic coated.

The TPMS sensors, I used Ford Performance. When dealing with electronic bits, I like matching from the same vendor. Ford TPMS sensors, the current generation since about 2017 and on, are self-learning. 99% of the time, they do not need to be trained to or paired with the car.

For rim color or finish, I started out by simply Googling images of S550s which were the color of Skye. With countless photos on-line, I was able to study different rim aspects and select the color I thought was right.

Perfect choice. The factory non-HP wheels should’ve been 19x10’s front and rear. Ford’s love of staggered setups drives me nuts.

Pretty fun isn't it? Glad you see you with a Mach 1 in the driveway with all the crap you went through.

Thanks @Zelek, yes I am so happy with the car. It is night and day from my 03 Mach.

Love the blacked out tail lights, wish they were legal here.

Not here either,

This is dark matter correct? Looks awesome.
Ford has always had those sneaky colors that look black unless the sun is hitting them. I had a dark side Ford Fusion that looked black most of the time but was actually green.

Yes, Dark Matter Gray. The metallic colors absolutely pop in sunlight.

So sick. If I had a black hp id literally be driving around with the windows down yelling "I'm Batman!" all the time.
