Anyone have any pics with the Ford Performance lowering springs .75 inch drop with 20 inch rims? Just trying to get an idea of how much of a gap there is in the wheel well, if any.

No pics, but there are pics of other setups using springs from different manufacturers with similar drops that may give you an idea.

Installed Ford Performance Track Handling Package with 1 inch drop all around. With 20 inch stock wheels. Can slide one finger between wheel and fender well.

The size of your wheel isn't going to make a difference. The tires are going to be the same diameter (around 27.2", I think) whether you have 18's, 19's or 20's. Unless, of course you put on the wrong size tire.

If all youwant to see is the gap, look at any size.

Sorry but this isn't true.


Here are some examples:

275/35R20 = 27.6" diameter
285/35R20 = 27.9" diameter
305/35R20 = 28.4" diameter
305/30R20 = 27.2" diameter

305/30R19 = 26.2" diameter

The first three above are very common sizes on a 20" wheel.
The one listed for the 19" is a very common size.

The 19" 305/30 is exactly an inch shorter than the 20" 305/30 and in fact it is shorter in height than all of the common 20's sizes by an inch or more.

I could have done some examples in a 19" and 18" but you can see there are differences.

BTW, what are the wrong size tires?

I was referring to someone installing the correct tire size for a Mustang on 20's.

tire size and wheel offset will make a difference on how much gap youll see. this is the magride steeda spring which i think is like .75 drop. but im on a 305/35 20 tire on a 20x11 wheel, i think +50 offset but dont recall. My other set of 20's were RTR tech mesh 20x10.5 and if i recall +45 and it had a little different look. my drag wheel the tire is about the same diameter as my 20 but with a +54 so it sets quite a bit in and again looks a little different

I felt embarrassed by the tire gap before the FP track pack. It lowered it 1 inch all around and that was good for me.

I thought Steeda dropped the car 1 inch.
