Seems like rebound is their signature issue. I’m wondering how much of a difference there would be with lighter wheels. I’ve been eyeing a few nice sets of flow formed 19” wheels (9.5-10” wide) that are 21-24 lbs each. That weight savings over the stupidly heavy 33 lb PP1 wheels could certainly...

I haven’t had any ground clearance issues and I park in underground parking with somewhat steep ramps likely similar to your driveway.

Wow really? That’s awful. Regrettably I tossed the stock shocks so I can’t even test it. I feel stupid for doing so but trusted this new setup would be fine. I have a hard time believing it’s the springs so it may be the shocks. No noise in single hard bumps, expansion joints or dips but broken...

What was bad? The Koni shocks? I still have a strange unsettled noise from the back over rough patched pavement. It’s hard to explain so I’m going to try to record a video. I need to get the car up in the air and figure it out. At this point I have no idea what’s causing the noise but I’m not...

Nope. Could you PM me a link?

I’m at a loss. I thought the J&M mounts and Eibach rear bump stops would sort the issue out but it must be something else. I’m sick of digging around the rear end of this car. Gonna have to throw it up on jack stands and check the springs, end links and whatever else it could be. Such a piss off.

Rear springs? What was your sound like? So many people recommend and use BMR springs.

I’d say it looks good as is but an extra 5mm spacer wouldn’t hurt. You have enough front camber to not rub. Prepare to chip up those rear haunches behind the doors if your wheels stick out much more.

I’m curious why you asked because I have some odd rear end noise that developed after 1500 kms with my BMR763 springs. Even after putting in the J&M shock mounts, it’s still there but different and not as clanking or awful. When I installed the springs I made sure they’re seated properly in the...

Here are my thoughts on the J&M mounts you’re ready to install: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/koni-active-shocks.123653/page-8#post-2902768

Get the install done over the weekend? Hope it went/goes well. Let us know your thoughts once they’re in.

Sounds like you're into trying a lot of notable sport coupes. I'm sure there's been pros and cons to all of them for you. Which one has had the most impact on you?

Damn. Okay on a 911 it works. That’s stunning. How does your GT feel in comparison?

Thanks for the additional pics! I like how classy and simple they are. Great look for your ride. The reason I like black on yellow is for the contrast. I have gun metal coloured wheels for winter and I think they look okay but yellow needs black wheels to look mean IMHO. On red, blue, dark green...

Just get a set of 1” (25mm) spacers for all four corners from whatever vendor; I can attest that they’re all the same. Just find them on sale. I’m lowered on BMR SP763 minimum drop performance springs (with Koni Active dampers and J&M rear shock mounts).

I was thinking about these wheels in a square 19x10” setup in black for my yellow PP1 and it’s awesome to see how good the silver looks on your richer red.

Hahaha that’s exactly what my friends said verbatim when I told them what the tech did. “Oh so he basically ugga dugga’d the wheel nuts on” I think it’s clear that the best thing to do is buy properly fitted wheels and avoid spacers all together. This is especially important if you’re hitting...

Obviously you can buy thicker spacers without built in studs but then you will have to use extended studs on your hubs. I don’t want to bother with that these days because I’ve done it in the past and it is a PITA. Sure it’s less of a hassle than drilling out studs though. I’ve used spacers on...

J&M shock mounts finally installed! Used the lower mounting holes after cutting off the sheet metal alignment pins. Consensus: been for 4 different cruises to enjoy the car and feel these new mounts out and I’m pretty happy. The have some minor noise over repeated broken pavement but it’s...

Update: Spent some time last weekend drilling out the spacer’s studs using cobalt drill bits on a hand drill. Was definitely not an easy process but managed to get all 4 studs. Went from 1/8” pilot to 1/4”, 5/16” and then right up to 1/2”. Managed to keep the damage to the wheel to a minimum...
