Does anyone have a Modern Spare for their spare tire set up ?

[AngelDeath]

I remember ford saying they went to 20's because of the bigger brakes. They couldn't get a 19 to fit flush.

I was referring to the Spare tire well in the trunk.

They are working on it. I was told later this year.

According to things I was reading on here the 19 inch will be higher so the false floor board in the trunk would not sit flush and would be raised slightly. Correct me if I'm wrong, cause if I am and thr 19" would fit flush in the trunk, then I'd cancel my order with the spacer.

And why didnt they tell me this when I was speaking to them today at noon!?!?!

***EDIT***

Just got off the phone with Tyler (same guy I spoke to earlier today) and after getting off the phone, I'm sticking with the 18" with the spacer, and when the 19" comes out I'll see, cause as of right now there is a "hopeful eta" but not definite. So if it does happen and works out for me then I'll sell what I have and get that.

Only one hang up…… I won’t have my car for another month, lol. I would be more than happy to report back to all of you, I just don’t have my back from Shelby.

I think Mike will have to be the first to confirm fitment.

Tracking provided should get to me by FedEx on 6/22, might not have the car by then, but we will see how all the work goes to the car. Soon as I get a chance I'll let everyone know.

Its a spare. No matter what the naysayers say, this company makes spares for a living. It will get you off the side of the road and to a place where you can get your tire fixed.

I guess when it has to cost a boat load of money and be made in a sweatshop in Taiwan

I guess they think once the spare goes on everyone sees this:

I just got mine yesterday. Full kit with spacer. Looks to be put together well. After cutting a tire on a 105 degree day in the summer and waiting for a flatbed, it’s worth it.

I can't wait to see how this fits on the front. Genuinely interested.

Well the spacer is a big chunk of machined aluminum. So you place the spacer on the hub, then tighten the lug nuts to hold it on. The spacer has 5 bolts on it, that the spare goes on, and you use the supplied nuts to bolt it to the spacer. It’s a pirelli tire and rated for 80 mph. They say to turn off the TC too. I got the whole kit with low profile jack too. Like I said, I cut a tire at 80 mph and the goo with pump was useless.

Why would they tell you to turn off the Traction Control off?? Dont understand that logic, thats puzzling.
