Here are a couple photos of my powdercoated pp1 wheels. I was shooting for something that looked like it could be a stock color, but not silver, and not graphite. Something in between. It looks a hair darker in person.
This is Prismatic Powders' "Galaxy Silver" with a clear gloss topcoat.
This makes me want to get my PP1 wheels powder coated. They are black on a Deep Impact Blue 2016 GT, lowered with spacers like these. I am not a fan of black wheels. (I'm 51) they can make the wheel look small, and highlight the greys and browns in the tire. They can also highlight what's...
I agree that the Magnaflow resonator or any cat back aftermarket exhaust system should have no impact on cat efficiency.
It was in the shop for an oil change and because the check engine light was on. I read the codes a couple months ago and got one for a catalytic converter efficiency issue...
Hi everyone. I have a 2016 Mustang GT with about 23,000 miles. It is at the local Ford dealership, who I trust, and I am being told that it needs both catalytic converters. The car has an Airaid cold air intake and a Magnaflow resonator, but otherwise is stock. It is used for rare autocross...
Hi everyone. On my last two of six autocross runs, in the middle of the course in a low-speed turn, I get a chime and a message for "Advancetrac Service." During at least one of those two runs, I am pretty sure I feel the traction control kicking in.
I had turned the traction control to...
It would be a 30 aspect ratio, thus the size is 295 30 19. Yes, I understand this will be pinching them a bit, and my first choice would be 275 or 285 but a good deal on a set has presented itself.
I am currently running the stock Pirelli summer tire 275 square.
The car is being used enough...
Hi everyone - will Goodyear supercar 3's in this size fit the front of my 2016 Mustang GT on 19x10 ET35 wheels? I've got -2.8 degrees front camber. Thanks in advance.
Thank you to everyone for your comments and suggestions. I do have a further question regarding not being able to get a suspension stiff enough for CAM on springs/struts. Is the problem that nobody is making a sufficiently stiff spring, or that no off-the-shelf strut is being made that can...
Hi everyone - I am currently considering either Koni or Steeda adjustable struts/shocks for my "very budget" CAM-C build for local occasional autocross use (2106 GT PP). Currently it is on a Steeda "lowering spring" that was on the car when I bought it, on the stock struts/shocks and bars...
Ok - thanks. I just read these. I started at 35 all around and it felt better than I expected. I'll probably drop a few in the rear and see how it goes.
I am simply turning it to "Track" mode with the switch, but I feel a nanny kicking in around a very slow 180 hairpin. Is there a way to...
Greetings - I haven't autocrossed my car yet, which is a '16 GT, very underprepped CAM-C car with not enough front neg. camber, progressive Steeda springs and no sway bar change. I have an event Sunday. It will get up to the mid-90s, dry, on asphalt. I am running a set of the stock summer...
I haven't seen alot of pictures of the SVE X500 in silver out in the wild, so here's one. I am very happy with how they look. 19x10 with the stock summer Pirellis 275 square setup.
I'm not a huge fan of black wheels. The silver really pops against the dark blue. These wheels have this AC...
Since Pitt Race is closest to me, it's likely that I'd be there most often with this car. I do not yet have camber plates. I am using camber bolts. The spacers are made by ZY Wheel. I had originally decided to go with a 19x10 square setup, but I am now leaning toward 19x11 square. I don't...
I apologize if this has been asked before, but here it goes:
I am running Steeda progressive springs, and I am evaluating whether to go with 19x11 ET50 wheels for track use. Let's assume for the moment that they will be shod with 305/35 tires.
On the front, I intend to run 25mm spacers...
