Agreed it’s kind of wild, though I believe it’s for weight savings.Fully prepared now
Always amazes me how many cars these days do not have a spare. I did the same amd bought one for my GT as always like to have a back up plan and not rely on tyre inflateres/run flats etc.
I did and you were very helpful. I was working with Mitch @LevittownFordParts.com to build a parts list, but I was finding that some of the parts were already on the M1. So, I bought a full GT500 intake - from the engine intake tube to the filter housing for $200 (shipped). Not a bad deal. And, the only thing I needed was the filter housing and cover.
Nope, it all about cost savings, and deleting the spare tire is a huge one. Ford was too cheap to develop an aluminum spare wheel/tire system to clear the low volume Brembo front caliper models. As an alternative to the pricy aftermarket spare tire offerings, you could also repurpose a Kia/Hyundai spare from your local junk-yard (image below,) and choose the appropriate tire size to match your OEM tire diameter. The Mach 1 HP size nests inside the trunk well but the larger base Mach 1/PP1 diameter requires partial deflation to fully nest inside the well.
First thing I did with my 22 GT when I had it. Got an automotive Authority spare. I then switched over to my Mach 1 when I traded, literally swapped over at the dealer as I was unloading all my other stuffI went and purchased a spare tire , as I didn't want to be stranded local or on a trip .

Very nice Sb , John s is also prepared. A person never thinks about it til they need it , in this case a spare tire, I hope I never use it , but got it if I need it .First thing I did with my 22 GT when I had it.

The AA tire fits really nice... Here it is on my 22 GT with Brembo's. Same brakes as the Mach. And a comparison to the tires I had on it at the time. I was running 275 35 20 on my GT... Pretty skinny
they get you home or to a garage and so thats good enough for me.First thing I did with my 22 GT when I had it. Got an automotive Authority spare. I then switched over to my Mach 1 when I traded, literally swapped over at the dealer as I was unloading all my other stuff

Exactly. That is all that matters. I avoid using if I can help it. I put 2 plugs in my left rear of my Mach 1, got me home but it worked. Nice to know that is a good solid plan Bthey get you home or to a garage and so thats good enough for me.
Thats some hefty detritus you picked up thereExactly. That is all that matters. I avoid using if I can help it. I put 2 plugs in my left rear of my Mach 1, got me home but it worked. Nice to know that is a good solid plan B
... , decent tread on the tyres too. Really unlucky
Oh yeah, I ran them for about 6 more months, probably 4k milesThats some hefty detritus you picked up there
Just changed them a couple of weeks ago, got a rally coming up this week, wanted to make sure all was well..
Whats the fitment like ie are the wheels flush ?Got my OEM 2019-2020 350 wheels on! 305/30/19 front and 315/30/19 rear PS4s tires! I am in love, wow!
Not quite, but they are now that I have my handling pack fender flares on. They fit the same as stock HP wheels.
