2019 Eco PP
The EB PP does not have the 6 piston Brembo brakes and I’m 99% sure the spare tire kit FR3Z-1K007-C. But I wanna be 100% sure before paying shipping on this.

Anybody willing to share video of that spare fitting/clearing, rolling on front wheel?

I think the EB PP has the same calipers as the GT non-PP car. Based on shopping for pads...

I bought some Bullitt take-off wheels for my non-PP GT. The Bullitt is a PP1 car with 19". The wheels hit the calipers. So, even though the 6 piston caliper is somewhat bigger to accommodate the larger rotor, it's actually smaller in one dimension than the 4 piston model.

Food for thought.

I had this spare on my 15’ EB and now have it in my 19’ GT/CS. No issues with GT brakes. Same as your EB PP.

Shop around for pricing on that Ford spare tire kit too... the prices vary greatly... you can find them as low as $125-$150 used (not literally used, but not brand new in the box) - or if brand new, under $250 on eBay.

Did it fit front as well as rear? I thought I'd read someplace that IF it didn't fit, adding a 25mm spacer solves, but I'd rather not but the spacer if not needed.

To be honest I’ve never tried it but was told by the service manager at my dealer and others that there would be no issues.
