In my defense, no they fucking didn't. It was moved here after being started in the general discussion area, and moved here after I commented.

No offense to Steeda at all, I'm ordering parts from them for my suspension today, and have used them in the past. I even got a really cool "Thank you" card from them once, so I'm a huge fan. I'm just enjoy hearing about the road-race stuff more than drag.

In the end, we're all Fu%#&*# Happy!

Hey T.J., I got a question for you if you don't mind answering it. Figure here is good, others may have the same question.

I'm doing Koni Yellows on stock springs, wheels and tires. I have a 2016 Performance Pack car.

For installing the rear Konis, I'm looking at your rear shock mounts, and there are 3 options for the size of the rear shocks, but there's no info about what size the Konis are, so I can't add your mounts to my cart to order; https://www.americanmuscle.com/steeda-billet-rear-shock-mounts-1517-gt-ecoboost-v6.html

If you could help me understand which option I should chose, it would be appreciated.

Hey TJ
How were you able to fit 15x10 race star or is that another typo?
I thought the widest 15 inch wheel that would work with the Baer brakes was a 15x9 (weld )
I have been able to fit 15x 8 race star wheels but was unable to make a 15x10 work even with the 6.5 BS(it would poke )
A 15 X 10 with 7.5 BS would not fit either due to the BS.

I spoke to Scott & that is what we were running but they had to do some extra "massaging" to get them on. He is going to let me know what that process was.

We are now running 17 x 10s.

The adjustable Konis ( Koni yellows) have a thread pitch of 12mm x 1.25, which will be our shock mounts part number (555-8152). If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me. Thank you.

We had to do a good bit of shaving off the calipers and also had to run spacers. The wheels definitely don't fit flush, and definitely poke when running the 15s.

No actual ETA at this point, but stay tuned we will definitely announce it as soon as we get a date!!!!
