They gonna let you swap those wheels over?
Those come with the wheel and stripe package, and they are the most underrated wheels that come on the S550 from the factory.

Congrats OP :ford:

I'd trade mine for base 17" V6 wheels, they're disturbingly ugly.

I think the stock GT wheels look great there no foundry 20" but definitely a good looking wheel I got the base v6 and just bought those exact gt wheels to go on mine to make it look better!

Well boys, I finally got the deal I'd been looking for! Traded in my Ecoboost for a Ruby Red GT with a stick, and boy is she somethin sweet! SO much power, and gosh does she look good. Here's some pics!
Congrats! But what would you say about the difference of power because that seems to be different than what I read on here.

Congrats, I love Ruby Red and struggled with it vs Deep Impact Blue. Such a nice depth to that color and tint!

Ruby Red is great. Especially with the cali special pkg or black accent pkg.

The Ecoboost was suuuper punchy down low. I'd put it in first and it would launch like a damn hellhound. It was great. The GT, however, doesn't. I've destroyed many a GT right at launch, but give it about a second and a half and the GT ROARS past all competition. It's a completely different world, but it's awesome nonetheless. I think both cars are fantastic, but nothing beats the raw, naturally aspirated power of the coyote v8. I love it. I'll admit I'm a complete amateur at driving it, but with time I'll definitely get much, much better at driving it spiritedly.

Y'all have any tips on how to drive it like a pro? Clutch tips, gas tips, yadayada
