Hey all, Replacing my pads and rotors for the first time on my non-pp 2015 GT. Picked up a set of 4 rotors and pads from R1 concepts. Can anyone give me the steps I need to take and what tools I'll need or any tips that will make it easier? Thanks.

Is this the pad you are referring to? https://www.detailedimage.com/Lake-Country-M7/Force-White-Polishing-Pad-P1257/55-S1/

Thanks for the opinions, I forgot to mention that I will do a full decon. I would do this at least once a year anyway. Wash with a stripping soap, iron x, rinse, synthetic clay mitt, rinse and finally dry. I'm used to the decon process. So, from what I gathered, you guys think I will at least...

Hey guys, My car just hit 6 years old in January and I've been very meticulous about keeping it clean and protected (hand wash only, ceramic sealants, weekly washes, etc.) But it is a daily driver and is starting to show a little wear and tear. Anyway, I've never had it paint corrected because...

Thanks for the offer but I need one for the rear. I'm thinking that the 73.1 hub bore matches what I bought from tire rack.

Does anyone happen to know what size the bore hub is on these? I'm trying to find a replacement wheel because mine got some bad curb rash when an idiot cut me off the other day and I had to hop a curb to avoid them. Tire Rack doesn't sell them anymore but I found one on Ebay and it lists the...

I'm pretty sure the hesitation is because of some EPA regulation. It was discussed a while back on this forum when people first started picking up the S550. Something to do with the engine needing to burn off all fuel in the cylinders when the throttle is let off or the car comes to a stop. It...

We have the exact same intake setup, haha. There's actually a small pad in the lid of the air box that can be removed that supposedly helps with air flow. It's there for epa regulations but I don't understand what it would do. You can just rip it out and throw it away. Takes 30 seconds if you...

Yeah, it's cool. Makes it feel a little more race car like. I didn't cut out the grill yet, saving that for another day or I may just leave it. Not sure if that would increase or decrease the noise.

Just installed mine today. I wasn't looking forward to taking the bumper off because the two 7mm screws in the wheel well that attaches the bumper cover to the fender. Everything i read or watched had everyone complaining about them. It was pretty tedious and takes a lot of patience but its not...

Hmmm, maybe I'll just go with some 5mm spacers and be done with it. Any recommendations on a brand to go with or are the generic ones they sell on AM/CJ's good enough?

Well, we must have all been in the same spot because I saw him on 363 near Egypt road. Small world... Anyway, my Velossatech Ram Air Kit is shipping today so I can finish up my "FrankenBox" cold air intake. Airaid Modular Intake Tube, AFE Prodry S filter, ripped out that little hidden...

So, do you guys think its probably better to error on the side of caution and go with spacers that have studs built in? seems like it wouldn't be worth the trouble to only push the wheels out a 1/4" inch. 1/4" will make the backs flush and just push the fronts out a little more when using my...

Looking to get 1/4" or 7mm spacers to bring my wheels out flush. Is this to thick for the stock studs? At what point do you need to get longer studs? Thanks

So, my 3 year warranty will be up on two weeks (time flies when you love your car) and I am planning on taking it in for its 30k mile service interval so they can look the car over and if there is anything that needs to be addressed it can be done while its still under warranty. I skipped my 20k...

I'm still not completely sold on the new design but I'll have to wait to see it in person. I do like the little details Ford put in this redesign to try and tie everything together. For example, the angles of center post in the spoiler matches the reverse light angles, the Front DRLs shape...

I would imagine you will be able to order one within the first few months of it releasing. Ford may not have a big inventory on them at first since they will be building the new model for lots and orders but once they catch up a lot of the parts will start to make their way to the market. I...

I see that you have an auto. The chiming you heard was probably because you didn't have the shifter fully engaged in park. Truth be told, I think its a little bit sensitive as to whether or not the car knows its in park. I had the chime happen to me a few times and it wasn't until I pushed the...

It's all good. Was trying to get a more concise thread of opinions. Everything else I've seen on these forums is spread out and opinions varied a lot. I thinking about getting the 1/4 inch spacers from cj's but don't want to run the risk of stressing the lugs.

Alright, need some help with this. What is the thickest wheel spacers I can get before needing to get new studs or spacers with their own studs? Also, what is considered a safe amount of turns for the lug nuts to provide a proper grip?
