Ok, Spring is in the air, so my '17 GT is making her way back out of the Garage.. she has 700 miles on her now!!

I have built up a little stack of mods and hope to get them all on this year..

Borla Atak Cat back
RTR 20" wheels MPSS tyres, 165/35 20 and 305/30 20 tyres
GT350R steering wheel
Pedders Coil overs with adj top mounts
Ford Performance catch can
MGW shifter

I have the tyres fitrted to the wheels and have bought new Ford pressure sensors.
I have an oil change light on

So.. questions..

What will happen when I fit my wheels and tyres? Will the cars computer recognise the new sensors in a matter of time/miles?

What is the best recommended tried and tested Oil/Filter for the Coyote Gen2? How will I reset the alarm?

I'm sure I can find these answers with a search on Google, but I thought I'd ask the guys "on the coal face"

Thanks in anticipation of some good advice.

Tyre sensors SHOULD learn automatically. You may need to reset them several times. Mine took 4 or 5 resets and about 50 miles to be accepted.

I use Magnatec in mine with no issues and use the standard Ford filter which IIRC is made by Motorcraft. You can get a slightly different version which holds a little more I think but an oil filter is pretty much an oil filter as long you go for a decent brand.

Resets for both oil and tyres are in the onboard dash menus.

Gonna turn this right back at you!
Your RTR wheels - 9.5 fronts and 10.5 rears? How do the 305/30 look on the rear, as that's bigger than recommended? Assume its 265/35 on the fronts?

As you may have guessed i'm in the market for wheels and tyres!

Thought you might be going drag racing :)

For now would be happy to know how the 305s look on a 10.5" rim (if that's what your rear is). You don't have a pic do you?

Look up the Mustang HRE FF01. Can't remember if the rear is 10.5 or 11 but I've currently got 305's in the rear. Looks absolutely perfect.

Thats a 305/30 MPSS on a 10.5 x 20 RTR wheel. Yes, in my hallway, not yet on the car...

Thanks guys. The HRE FF01 is a 10.5. Fitment looks good on that and the RTR.
