    PRETITION: BFG Rivals in 305/35/18

    BFG please make more sizes and keep them available, I couldn't find new ones last time and had to buy a used set off of a friend.

    So why don't 10in wide square setups work?

    So I found a new rim thats 18x10 with a +45mm offset,its my understanding that spacers can get me to +43 or 42 if I have clearance issues, is that the case? Possibly with the need of longer wheel studs. Thanks again for the help.

    So why don't 10in wide square setups work?

    Are there other offsets that would allow for the 1" drop without widening the fenders and still not run into the suspension? Thank you for the help.

    So why don't 10in wide square setups work?

    Well then are there any modifications needed to run a 295 on a 18x10" wheel with a +30mm offset with a 1" drop? Wheel spacers, rolled fenders etc?

    So why don't 10in wide square setups work?

    What modifications need to be done to fit the 315s all around on 18x10 rims, the ones I'm looking at have a +30mm offset. Will I have to have the fenders rolled? Also any issues if I drop the car 1in? My Front brakes are the ones that came stock on the 2012 mustang GT. Thanks for the help.

    Forged Internals

    Don't want to go with a blower, yes its cheaper power but not cheaper in the long run having to replace a trans. Want to take it as far as I can NA within reason. Any idea how much going with a big bore kit would be? Would like to do all of the work myself but thats not possible with a big...

    Forged Internals

    Planning on taking it to 7600RPM, http://www.mustangandfords.com/how-to/engine/mmfp-1009-ford-racing-three-valve-intake-manifold-testing/intake-dyno-testing-results.html they took a very similar setup, probably just different exhaust got up to 430hp NA. So would need it to be able to rev up to...

    Forged Internals

    Dysan, thanks for the heads up they are indeed the ones I was looking at. I have so far managed to stick with all ford racing parts and because its a Bullitt and came stock with ford racing parts I'd like to keep it that way. Well the exhaust is branded Borla but was used on the FR500S...

    Forged Internals

    I am looking at taking my NA engine up to higher revs when I install new stage 3 heads this winter and am looking at putting in forged internals while I'm at it. Does anyone have experience with Eagle cranks and connecting rods and Mahle pistons? I am currently looking at keeping the stock...

    Ford Racing Adjustable Suspension Recomendations

    Thanks guys for the advice, I just bought larger brakes today, not sure if they are enough for road courses but for autox they will help a little. As for driving seat time I agree I could certainly use more in autox, drag racing however at this point my times seem to be car not driver limited...

    Ford Racing Adjustable Suspension Recomendations

    Well I have a feeling that rear end grip will be a problem with an extra 100hp so I'd start with that. Our autox track doesn't have the best pavement and the back end comes around pretty easy when upset over bumps. Any ideas for fixing that?

    Ford Racing Adjustable Suspension Recomendations

    Yes I am aware that the mods I am planning put me into classes I could not possibly compete in for autox but I use it for drag racing as well and don't expect to be winning any national events or even regional ones. Mostly just looking to have fun and enjoy the car as it was designed to be...

    Ford Racing Adjustable Suspension Recomendations

    I have owned the Bullitt for 4 years now and the only reason I am upgrading it vs getting a Boss is I couldn't bring myself to sell it. I have been drag racing it for years and with the new 5.0s it's just not as powerful as it used to be. As far as the handling goes I have no immediate plans...
