The little bit of time I had with the Tremec in the Mach 1 I test drove last Friday was amazing. The sales guy went with me and laughed when I took off from a light, shifted hard into 2nd and said out loud "Wow, it didn't get stuck! I love it already!" I know that F-150 struggle. I bought a...

Since I'm already heading to Raleigh this Saturday morning to test drive a 2022 Mach 1, I'm going to leave early and try to drive a C7 before I get to the Mustang. I found a couple in that area that are plain Stingrays with auto transmissions, but that's fine for a test drive just so I can see...

Don't worry about being "that guy." I asked for opinions, and I want them all. You're 100% right. I don't need a Mach 1 over a regular GT premium. I will say that when I first started looking at Mach 1's, I quickly decided that I did not want or need the handling package. That's a $3,500-ish...

I don't necessarily prefer the Corvette interior over the Mustang. They're both equal to me in comfort. The Mustang clearly has more space though. Plus, there's the obvious difference in that it has a back seat and a normal trunk for more cargo. Having driven a full-size truck or an SUV the last...

Hey all. Long-time member here, but it's been several years since I posted. I used to have a 2015 GT premium, but sold it quite a while back in order to buy a vehicle that could tow a boat for me and the wife. Needless to say, with the boat now up for sale at a local dealership, I'm looking at...

Here's some data from the highway portion of a trip I made back from the coast today. I have the GT Premium with 6-speed, 3.31 gears and a 93 octane tune from Steeda. The car is lowered 1" and has the OEM 18" wheels with Pirelli Nero tires. Speed was around 77mph, mostly on cruise control. Roads...

@vance knight I saw your car at the Heart of Carolina Mustang Club car show last Saturday! It's a nice looking ride and I really like those wheels. I'm looking at silver wheels for my DIB Mustang to go with my silver stripes. I wouldn't initially think that silver could look good on the TY, but...

Looks are always a personal choice, but I will say that I'm strongly considering the TSW Geneva as well. Both the Geneva and the Bathurst are flow formed, so you'll enjoy the benefits of a lighter, stronger barrel. I can't speak on the Vertinis since I'm not familiar with the brand. TSW has been...

Mine's a DD as well, but has been fed only 93 octane ever since I bought it. Since tuning, I'm definitely married to 93 octane now. Of course, it's readily available all over my area though, so no worries. If for some reason gas goes up to crazy prices again, like $4.50 or $5/gallon for 93, I...

Well, the stock suspension IS pretty high. :lol: I love the paint scheme though. :thumbsup:

Are you referring to how the speedometer changes because of larger or smaller diameter tires? The OEM 18" Neros I have are 27.2" in diameter according to TireRack.com. I highly doubt that I would notice any difference whatsoever while riding on a 26.8" or 27.6" or whatever diameter tire other...

My wheel/tire budget is similar to yours. I don't want to go over $2k total. I looked at all the combo deals on the common Mustang parts websites, but decided that it's best for me to buy wheels and tires separately, then have them installed locally in order to get the specific tires I want...

I suppose I'll take a wait-and-see approach then and keep an eye on the oil life meter. When it gets to around 10%, I'll see how many miles I've gone and then make that my interval. Lots of reviews on the RP filter though have people saying that it's more than capable of lasting for 10k miles...

I changed my oil today with Royal Purple 5w-20 and a Royal Purple filter (part #20-500). I emptied out about 7.5qts from the car and put in exactly 8qts per the manual. After a 2-minute idle to let things cycle, the dipstick reading was spot-on. When I bought the car used last October with 6k...

One more endorsement for the Steeda jacking rails. They make raising the car a piece of cake and give me a LOT more peace of mind while being underneath it. I just changed my oil today (Royal Purple FTW!) and it was SO easy. I've changed the oil on all my vehicles for the past 20 years and...

Sure, if you don't mind. Thanks. Considering that their data sheet for the Geneva says a 20x10 won't work on the front though makes me think that's what their "official" stance is on the subject. If your contact says it'll work, but only with a spacer, then I'll either drop down a size and go...

Thanks for the info Dave, I appreciate it. I have a few months left til I'm finally ready to buy (trying to burn down the tread on my current tires the best I can!), so maybe by then someone on here will either have bought the Geneva wheels themselves or perhaps a retailer will have test fit...

Wheel size is irrelevant. Tire size is what's important with regards to your speedometer. Use a website like tirerack.com to find out the overall diameter of the tires you have and the tires you want. FYI, the OEM 18x8 wheels come with 235/50 Pirelli P-Zero Nero tires that are 27.2" in diameter...

TSW says on their website that the Geneva in 20x9.5 and 20x10 will only fit the rear of the 2015+ Mustangs. However, I've seen numerous other wheel manufactures fit 20x10s on the front of our cars without any issues. In fact, even though TSW says that their Nurburgring wheel in 20x10 won't fit...

The BFG Comp-2s have a directional tread pattern. With a squared wheel setup, I'd only be able to rotate them front-to-back on the same side of the car, which is better than nothing. In a staggered setup though (20x9/10 for example), I wouldn't be able to rotate them at all, which obviously...
