Hi. I am looking to run 275/40r19 squared on my white 2017 Mustang GT non-PP. The car has GT350 springs and ford track shocks. I will ship the wheels to colombia and will cost $320+ for the set so I am trying to set a budget here.
The idea is to run 275/40r19 to get 8mm more ride height and a...
You should've seen the boat groups. Bragging about spending 20-30% over MSRP talking like "if you can't afford it, dont complain". Those guys are nowhere to be found now that they're 10% below MSRP 😂 they got their boats listed on fb marketplace, 3 years old, asking MSRP. Meanwhile I bought...
I have a 2017 Mustang GT non-PP, I ordered a splitter from Liquivinyl on november 29 and they haven't given me an estimated ship date. I understand they're backed up with black friday orders, but I'm starting to 2nd guess my order. I am slightly lowered on GT350 springs and I'm not sure if their...
It's that I wouldn't want to have FK520L in front and FK510 in the rear. Idk if it would cause tramlining.
From what I read is the FK520L is the next generation of FK510 but its interesting that it doesn't seem they discontinued the FK510.. We have both here. Anything bigger than 285 we only...
Got a quote back. $93 each wheel to ship here. So that's like $2400 for those wheels and falken fk510 275/40r19. I don't think the juice is worth the squeeze for an extra 20mm of tread width! Maybe just get a 1" spacer set up front/rear with ARP 1" longer studs and camber bolts. I think it would...
I'm not very far off from -2 on the front. It's at -1.6 and -1.7 right now and I think camber bolts would get me to -2. I was considering this morning the american muscle GT500 wheels 19x9.5 et35. $200 each, can use my 255/40r19 until I'm ready to put 275/40r19 (fills the wheel well a little...
I have the 4x FK520L which is the next generation. I dont have many kilometers on them, but they seem very good. I thought about doing a PP1 staggered, swap my FK520L 255 to the front and get 275 in the rear but just the FK510 is available in 275/40r19. I'm just trying to find a way to do what...
But I don't know what I'm going to do with the wheels. I just bought those Falken tires and I would like a wider stance. They're the OEM 19x8.5 wheels. I could buy 4x rear performance pack 19x9.5 from Voxx replica wheels for $740 but then I would have to ship them here $$$$ and probably wouldn't...
I took it up to the mountains and it drives really great. With the 255 wide Falken FK520L I never felt close to breaking traction but I don't think I drive wrecklessly. Drives great, sounds great. A bmw suv was following me, maybe it had a B58 because he was doing good. I took some single lane...
Update: The shop installed the GT350 rear springs, ford frpp shocks, and steeda billet shock mounts. Checked the alignment, no change from PP rear springs. The car drives really good! No bounce, firm, but not uncomfortable. And I don't see any difference in ride height in the rear. Idk if it...
What springs do you have on the rear? I tried pushing the ford track shock and bilstein shocks side by side and the ford track shock was stiffer. On monday im putting 857lb springs with the ford track shocks. If I don't like how it rides, maybe I'll see if the bilstein is damped right for 857lb...
It rode awful. I said to a mechanic at the shop "it rode awful with the bilsteins" and he made a face and nodded. I asked "you drove it?!" and he said "yeah, it was really bad".
The bilsteins weren't dampening all kinds of bumps. Think braking bumps, the shocks just stop working and you bounce...
so I decided to diagnose this before I change everything. After receiving a message from another member who had problems with bilstein, I decided to ask the shop to swap back my original shocks. The original shocks are bad and make some noise. I put them back with the original mounts to see how...
I have an interesting thought. I had a 2022 BMW 118i. It was white. Some people would call it a fake BMW bc it's front wheel drive. Its a hatchback. It didn't call any attention but it got 50mpg+, the interior was really nice, and it would haul a lot inside. Also I didn't pay a lot for it. I...
I'm considering to PPF a good portion of my car after I fix some miscellaneous stuff. My city is wild and you need prayers to avoid damage. In rush hour there's always motorcycles cutting between the cars, in 30 minutes probably 200+ motorcycles will pass you. I have a 12" long dent on my...
Another member PM'ed me and said that he had issues too and recently swapped back his OEM shocks, and it fixed the problem. On my 2022 BMW 118i the oem bilstein strut went bad with like 12k miles. I thought it was the roads here, but I'm thinking it's a quality issue in recent years. Maybe 90%...
I like anything with the BMW B58 with a tune and downpipe they have tons of power. They're bullet proof powertrains. But BMW with RWD isn't a good winter car. I would say get an xdrive. BMW 340i xdrive or X3 M40i. I was looking for a long time for a M240i, but they were all trashed. Then I came...
I put the 2018+ OEM active mufflers on my 2017 with a switch to open/close the valves. It was a little louder than the borla universal mufflers that were on there. Then I put a H-pipe and it's 2x louder. It's relatively quiet in comfort mode because the shifts keep RPM's down. Above 5k it...
