  1. What are the handling effects due to widening front track width?

    Make sense... Thanks. I was worrying about scrub and delayed turn in. But, it seems I was indeed worried for no reason.
  2. What are the handling effects due to widening front track width?

    Right... I forgot that new wheels will be selected according to offset! I think it could end up widening a little, but nothing to worry about. Thanks.
  3. What are the handling effects due to widening front track width?

    Putting more tire up front (say, 295 or larger) should provide real benefits to handling. But, to keep a square tire setup, and allow front to back tire rotation, requires using the same wheel offset with approx. 1” wheel spacers in front. This would increase track with by 2” in front, without...
  4. Planning my setup and would like advice

    I agree. Sell it on (or return if possible) and put the money elsewhere.
  5. Planning my setup and would like advice

    Looks great! I would go ahead and add an adjustable front bar. You can leave the rear bar as is. Last season I added the Front Roll Center & Bumpsteer Correction Kit and then an adjustable front bar, and both had noticeable affects. (The effect was big enough that I feel I really should...
  6. Planning my setup and would like advice

    @BMR Tech: You would do No. 4 above before adding an adjustable sway bar up front?
  7. Who Tunes your 5.0? And Why?

    FWIW, I recently installed a Steeda tune and CAI on my GT. I thought about things for a while; here are my reasons for choosing the Steeda tune bundle, which is conservative. Background: Mine is a dual purpose car: for both road course events, and street driving in the warm weather. Until the...

  10. Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks

    Hi Norm, Huge thanks for running the wheel+tire numbers!!!! Is the spreadsheet software happen to be publicly available? Joe
  11. Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks

    I just saw this post after responding to Norm. It seems like this setup should be the goal when I have the funds. I imagine the tramlining will be strongly felt at 305 up front! Many thanks, Joe
  12. Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks

    Clearances are mm, not inches, so I am expecting to need a spacer to go wider than 275 while keeping these wheels. Some folks have been very negative about spacers. Seems to me the issue is making sure there is enough length on the wheel studs. I have never had to use a spacer before, so I am...
  13. Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks

    I think PP2 squeezes 305s onto a 10.5" wheel up front? But, I have been nervous about going wider than a 275 or 285 up front on my GT because I just don't know what will safely fit on the 2017; when (of even if) I should use a spacer; and, if there might be unintended consequences to going...
  14. Steeda's S550 Mustang Rear IRS Subframe Support Braces (w/ Video)

    I just updated my ongoing review of suspension upgrades with a report on the effect (very positive) of stabilizing the IRS with Steeda's sub-frame braces...
  15. Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks

    I suspect that nobody is looking at this thread anymore, but since my initial review way back in June 2018, I have made a change (very positive) relevant to the original “critiques” of my suspension setup. Following the suggestion of BmacIL (post #8), and others, I added the Steeda sub-frame...
  16. WTB Steeda IRS Subframe Support Braces

    WANTED: I am hoping to find someone who wants to sell their Steeda S550 mustang (2015+) rear IRS Subframe Support Braces.
  17. Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks

    Thanks for the detailed feedback on item (2) in the critique!!! I want to add a clarification about what is in my Steeda kit. I have the IRS subframe bushing support system (555-4447), and that kit does NOT include their subframe braces (555-5754). It was not a matter of choosing to include...
  18. BMR Suspension SP083 Handling Springs, REVISED and Better than Ever!

    Review of handling springs (SP083) paired with Ford Performance track shock/struts I just posted a review of the BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks and struts. It turned out to be very long (probably too long), so I posted it as a new thread. Here...
  19. Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks

    Review of BMR handling springs (SP083) paired with the Ford Performance track shocks and struts (M-18000-F) Now that I have these installed for a few weeks, I am able to review them for both the street and road-course. But, some background information is required. First, both springs and...
