I wouldnāt start messing with it. My buddy has a GT350 that had the same issues as youāre describing. He took it to multiple Ford shops, Cortex racing and a few other shops and it checked out fine. He drove mine and his back to back and they felt the same.
Ok thank you for the advice. Im not...
Is necessary any aditional data? What can I measure more? It is parked on a flat surface, same tyre pressure. And pollen is 953 grains/m3 :)
Didn“t know the panels can be fitted, I mean as the wheel wells belong to the main bodywork, didn“t know it can be adjusted. I“ll ask to the body shop...
To be more accurate with the measurements, I have made more measures from the lip of the wheel and even from the disk brake: It confirms that there is a misalignment, 4-6 mm from one side to other. As this is another issue to discuss about it, I“ve opened a new thread on the general forum for...
Good night from Spain. Many health and force to defeat this disease.
I“m planning to change the wheels of my 2016 Mustang GT. To calculate the best offset I measured the fender clearance from the rim lip using a wire with a weight, sticked to the outer fender.
My surprise came when I measured...
Thanks for your masterful explanation of why there is no possibility of rubbing the tire with the defense. And thank you for your the picture. Swinging motion of the suspension was unknown to me and thought the travel suspension was longer. Also, if I am going to opt for 275 tires, the...
I“m still thinking about 19x9,5 because the wheel I want does not make 19x10" I“m in boring Europe.
My limits are on the offset. By spanish inspection, I can“t go longer that 15 mm on a side of the axis: 30 mm in total: So minimum offst available (rear) is 52,5-38 = 14,5 mm < 15 mm.
What I still...
Thank you very much for your feedback. I feel more confident, althought I have so rearch for hubcentric spacers, Didn“t know they are 3 mm hubcentric spacers.
But I have another issue to be sorted. I was measuring this evening to be sure the offset to ask for. I always have measured the right...
A friend of mine was interested using a 9" rim with 275 tyres, I“m going to copy your feedback. Maybe it will be interested
Very interesting idea to emulate the 3.73 shaft with a lower profile tyre. The only problem, in my country, is that if I have to go with a 35 profile, I need an...
Interesting, you dind“t have a problem with side wall moving too much in curves? There is no problem with the tyre tending to go out from the rim?.
Well, in my case, I“m about to purchase a set of 4x19x9,5 squared set ET38 rear ET35 front. The little difference is for legal limits in my...
The typical tables with wheel widths and tyres widths do not recommend that size. Anyway you“re talking about track, not open roads. https://www.tyresizecalculator.com/charts/tire-width-for-a-wheel-rim-size-chart
You are right, a Mustang is still an exotic car here, considering the european concept, narrower streets and parkings, and gasoline 95 at 1,32⬠/l (before COVID crisis).
But it“s the first time the Mustang is sold in a Ford oficial dealer in Europe. That means years of warranty, and a bit easier...
Thank you again for all your new information. Now I feel totally confident choosing a squared setup, and moreover, with your advice and experience, I“ll use the 255 tyre on the 9,5 rim (with a very flat side and taking care with curbs) till they wear out and complete the final step with a 275...
Thank you very much for your detailed information. Now I feel more confident that a squared option is going to work fine with the stock parts, considering the Ford oficially has used this set to a pair of models (curious the PP2, different wheels, same tyres). And even (for me) it looks better...
Good evening from Spain.
Agree. There are many threads about choosing a squared vs staggered set. I have read a lot about it and to summarize the pros and cons are the following:
Squared.
Pros:
- Null understeering
- Possibility of rotating the wheels so you can make more km with them (saving...
Thank you very much again. So by your opinion, the probability of fitting well is not 100% but almost.
Let me think about it, but now as some folks say, they“re questioning me if a squared setup is the best option considering my mileage. Perhaps I“ll open a thread to be more accurate. Stay...
Sorry for disturbing you again, but I want to be sure before emptying my wallet: I“ve checked that have been people who mounted a front design 20x9" ET40 model in front with no issue. So considering that size, do you thing that consecuently a rear 19x9,5" ET40 will fit in front with enough break...
Thank you very much for your information. As I read you I think my calculus are correct. I used a simulator and if it“s correct, the strut clearance is almos the same, I suppose that there will be no problem when swapping 255-> 275 tyres.
Thank you for the SVE information, I like them but the...
Good afternoon from Spain. Sorry for my English as it“s not my native languaje.
Above all, much encouragement and strength to win the battle against this terrible COVID bug that has seeped into all countries. We are spending really hard days inside the house without being able to leave.
I...
