Official Square Setup Picture / Specs / Handling Characteristics Thread

[Built4Speed]

Can anyone tell me if a stock GT PP rear and tyre (9.5j x 19", offset 52.5, fitted with 275/40 R19 tyre) will fit on the front without a spacer? Sounds like it might not clear the strut. I'm thinking of using stock PP rears front and rear, maybe with a 15mm spacer all round. Stock appearance but more neutral handling and better wheel arch filling.

From the UK; hoping my car arrives in the next few days after 12 month ordering wait!

The first size in the setup pictured is the largest stock wheel from the factory, 20"x9" +45 offset w/ 265/35/20.

The setup you want to run is 13mm closer to the suspension.

I will be getting 275/40/19 PSS on my 19x10 MMD +45. I have 5mm spacers for insurance to bring it to +40 like the rest of the people here. I will update when I get them installed

I think you need a spacer, I don't know which size...

That begs the question, what size spacer is needed? I wonder...

Thanks, I think you might be right.

Looks like a 15mm spacer would negate the offset compared to the stock front wheel so that would do it. And look good

Boss 302S 19x10 wheels with 285/35r19 Continental Extreme Contact DW tires.
+47.5 offset with 5mm hubcentric spacers all around. It's very close, like 1-2mm of clearance from the strut. I will be fitting a set of 7mm spacer up front to check my comfort level on the lug nuts.

After installing running pony center caps I modified.

A pic with the new track pack spoiler installed just for fun.

Varekai, I love that set up. Looks awesome. Have you had any issues with vibration or anything since those VP5's require hub rings?

Thanks! Yeah I do have vibration, but I think it might just be a crappy balance job. And when I did a tire rotation I did find a broken ring that had to be replaced. I need to take them in to be force balanced.

I saw your ride in another square set up thread and it almost got me to order the same set up you have. I was torn between those, the M350's, and the 6GR's. The only reason I didn't go with the VP5's was the hub rings. The other two are made specifically for the Mustang, so that's what ultimately won me over. But I love the look of those VP5's on a black Mustang.

19x10 MMD Axiom +45 with 275/40/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sports, used 5mm hubcentric spacer in the front. Wouldve been very tight without it, cheap insurance. Im on stock PP suspension. I can already feel the car is more neutral and less understeery.

spacious with the caliper

front shocks recompressed after driving, stance looks nice
