    Which of these s650's would you rather

    One more will it fit?

    AHaze good clarification, I didn’t pay close enough attention to the original post details.

    One more will it fit?

    Yes they will be fine. All S197 wheels are interchangeable between model years other than the cars that have Brembo brakes requiring the right size / style to clear the calipers. The TPMS sensors are different though.

    Back into the Mustang Again in Retirement.

    Congrats, beautiful car! I personally prefer the look of the 07-09 GT500 compared to what I have, but because I do some track days I didn’t want the iron block. However, local to me a really nice low mileage 07 in Grabber Orange with Tungsten Grey stripes came up for sale, which is my...

    Black on black 2008 GT500 - Source for new stripes?

    Obsolete from Ford. When available they did sold as separate pieces, for example the rocker stripe for one side would come as one part number, over the top stripes in separate sections.

    2013 with 20x10.5" fender clearance

    You would be better off with something around +45 or more to tuck it to the inside further. Otherwise depending on the ride height of the car you might be in to massaging the fender lips/

    0W-20 in the Winter?

    In Canada, for the Motorcraft synthetic product line Ford dropped 5W20 a few years ago and told us to use the 0W20 as a replacement. For winter use in Canada I’d say go for it.

    2007 Parts Schematic

    The way the Ford parts catalogue works, what you’re looking for may be in a few different sections. If your local dealer isn’t helpful then maybe try one of the dealers who have an online parts store, and start looking their diagrams and listings.

    2008 Bullitt wheels on a 2010 GT ??

    Ford had 255/40R19 on 9” wheels for sure on the Mustangs.

    2008 Bullitt wheels on a 2010 GT ??

    255/45R18 is fine for 8.5” wheels too, and matches closely with the diameter to the factory 235/50R18. When my friend’s 08 Bullitt needed new skins that’s the size we got for him. Yes 9” would be ideal but for street use the 255/45 is fine on 8.5”.

    Help! Intake Manifold gaskets

    Hopefully someone in the aftermarket sells them … I just logged in to the Ford parts catalogue, and from them you could only buy them with the upper intake, no separate service part.
