PP2 OWNER EXPERIENCES - RAVES/QUIRKS

[nameuser]

I personally think the factory PP2 wheels are some of it not the best wheels that have ever been on a new age mustang.

I also was meaning did you sell your stock tires but I typed out the wrong thing. . @Smunczen

I picked up the matte black version of the stock wheels from Ford Performance.

Just a reminder I'm trying to collect PP2 part numbers for people that either need to find PP2 specific part #'s or want to replicate it on their car. Any additional part #'s would be appreciated!

If you like the PP2 wheels LMR sells replica wheels that should work. If you want to run a true square setup you will need a 25mm spacer up front with extended studs.

This is relevant to my interests.

I'm satisfied with the look of the PP2 wheels, but if I could get a square setup, that's got my attention. I'd be able to at least rotate the tires front-to-rear to even out the wear some. Maybe go up to 20" wheels too. What offset would I want?

Are there bolt-on wheel spacers available? I saw some on CJ Pony Parts but they say they don't work with the Magneride suspension.

I don't know if there would be some slight offset differences for 20" wheels. I got these 19x11 +50mm offset. Do not use bolt on wheel spacers. Look at opmustang for spacers, extended studs and open lugs. You can also get open lugs from Ford Performance as I did. Apex also has some good wheels, spacers and the extended studs.

Has anyone upgraded their pads and rotors to something slotted or drilled?

with the design of the PP2 wheel I bet it would look amazing.

bored and just perusing ideas.

 

[mustang5o]

Drilled might be OK for the street but are more prone to cracking under stress. I have contemplated 2 piece slotted for the lighter weight and cooling properties but cost is a major factor.

Here was my PP2: Vortech Supercharger, Palm Beach Tune, Bullitt Grill, GT350 springs and Spoiler, Rear Seat Delete. Silver Back panel.

The car drove great handled well and was trouble free for 2 years.

 

[gtmorgan23]

@JNS_PP2 what happened after 2 years? did it blow up your sell it?

 

[JNS_PP2]

I sold the car. But I can say other than the standard 6 speed which everyone knows is a little challenging it was a great car. I did put on bigger brakes on the rear, Giro Disc on the front , a Barton shifter which does make a difference and aluminum drive shaft as well. I think the PP2 is a better car than the new Mach 1 with the exception of the gear box. But that is just my take on things.


I purchased a 1970 428 cj . I have a 2021 Shelby Gt 500 arriving in about 3 weeks.

Has anyone used these rotors on their PP2?

Wondering if these are a better choice than the Powerstop:

Is there anything different between track mode and sport mode with exhaust?

 

[RalphK]

Track is louder
