I thought I had the sportlines, I keep getting them confused. I have the pro ones but will that all still apply?

Yes do the drop take it to a alignment shop make sure u have about -2 degrees of camber for the rear and those 315 tires will fit fine.

You should fit. Guy around hear has 275 up front and 315 rear lowered 2 inchs no cutting or any thing

resting a larger tire against the smaller rears while on the ground will not tell you anything about fitment...except give you a false illusion that it wont fit...

What springs are you running? Looks good

Edit - just saw your build thread. Steeda springs FTW!! Your car looks freaking amazing. Did you have the camber set at -2 your rears as well?

NOW they clear and don't rub. Cradle alignment is a problem on these cars. Bmr is coming out with a fix for it. But for now it's not easy to aling. I'm lucky as watson built a jig to aling the cradle. Gotta drop the cat back though.

Mine was shifted 5/8" to the drivers side.

Looks good, won't have to sell them then!

275 is too big for me at least on fronts, 255 is plenty but that's good to hear!

I see, stupid me.

I was gonna go with the invos even because I live in FL but for a daily it's just a waste. I did want 315s because I know at some point I'll be upgrading the turbo in this thing and they look badass.

Nitto and Toyo sit slim compared to the MPSS so the fact we can fit a 315 MPSS that sits wider then its listed shows we got some serious room in the rear of these badboys.

275s are perfect IMO!
Here is a shot before the drop.

What does aligning the cradle involve and when exactly does that come into play? Is it a job a normal alignment place can do or do you need more of a performance type shop?

Thanks

I don't believe a normal alingment place can handle it yet.

Watson made a fixture that requires dropping the cat back to align

BMR has a fix coming out pretty quick I believe. Pm or email kelly to get him to release it!

I got mine close by eye and string hanging off the fender.

I could do it at a alingment shop. But I bet they won't loosen the cradle from the body to get it.

Anthony,

Can you describe the cradle alignment issue? What would one look for on
a stock PP car? Is there something specific we can look at and perhaps talk to
Ford. If this is what I think you are talking about, then our cars would "cat
walk" or in other words the back ends would not track in a perfect line with
the front of the car. Is this correct?
Thanks!
