    Tire size: staggered or same all around?

    well then I stand corrected. why do the boss 302 and the LS have staggered setups? They are supposed to be NA track cars....

    Rear coil overs

    Someone with actual experience feel free to interject, but this is a judgement call. If you are going to use rear coil overs, I would highly recommend bracing the top of the shock mount area as it was not designed to support all of the weight of the car... if you look at boss s/r cars (which...

    2014 GT mt-82-- skips 3rd gear?

    skip shift in the 11 and 12 cars was only a change from 1-2...the gate for 2 would be blocked and forced a 1-4 shift - dumbest shit I've ever seen in my life OP - the difficulty getting into 2nd at high rpms is very common - had it on my '12 and on my '13. no you don't HAVE to use the clutch...

    Convince me...8" vs 9" width

    Thanks. They are very pretty wheels IMO but not perfect...close though. I still have the drifts on the car with all seasons. Planning to use them through the cold and then put on the brembos and sell the drifts. amen to that. These cars have come a long way but I still want to drive a muscle car!

    14" Brembo brake clearance for 18" wheels

    I would say as long as the spacers are centeric (hub or lug) and as long as the studs are specially treated you should be ok. I would say get the H&R kit or the hub centric spacers and replace your studs with the ARP/FR hardened/treated ones... American Muscle makes ok stuff, but this is one...

    Convince me...8" vs 9" width

    well thanks for all the food for thought. I really liked the idea (and look!) of the chrome 8.5" wide bullitts with 255 but I didn't like how much they tuck into the fender. didn't want spacers.. I ended up finding a good deal on a set of Brembo wheels/tires and I couldn't pass it up. so I'm on...

    Tire size: staggered or same all around?

    I have to disagree with you. If you are rolling through a turn, yes square setup is better, but If you are accelerating while turning (ie after apex) you would benefit from larger rubber in the back

    Brembo Brake full size spare tire option

    well darn, I believe thats the best option yet... nice work

    Convince me...8" vs 9" width

    got any pics of that? That's a big tire... you daily that or is it a fair weather car?

    Convince me...8" vs 9" width

    Before the flaming starts... This GT is my daily and I want to keep it relatively low maintenance and simple. I am going to get new wheels and I am targeting 18s in a square setup for longer tread life (full rotations). My target tire is 255/45/18. I like a square or bulging sidewall, so I am...

    F/T Chrome SVT Style wheels

    Are these Ford wheels, or are they replicas? I've never seen them in chrome before

    my Brembo spare solution, and another option

    depending on your skills, you could fab out something with fiberglass or plywood covered with oem style carpeting.... if you wanted to get fancy, you could make a flat cover that has plexiglass or lexan circle in the middle as a display window for the spare...

    Wheel not clearing stock brakes

    maybe too loose? wheels are not side specific.... did they come off another stang?

    1.36'' difference in tire sizes?

    are the wheels silver? If so they are SN95 offset. If you go the the latemodelrestoration page and search you can see the difference in offsets. I happen to know the above bc I am running those wheels. I wanted 18's in silver but the didn't have them in S197 offset yet. running with 255s on that...

    Lowering with +25 Offset

    well...thats bc it is... There is a difference between sn95 and s197 offset in the front. But you have to stop looking at it that way. Offset is a measurement, not chassis specific. Even for the same chassis different wheels have different offsets based on what the manufacturer designed.

    11-13 Boss H-Pipe w/ Qtec Boss 302 cutouts

    do you mind telling me in words a bit?...exhaust videos are not very good for understanding sound levels... although I do appreciate that bc I was curious what the sound was like as well!

    11-13 Boss H-Pipe w/ Qtec Boss 302 cutouts

    How much louder does it get when you open them up? is it like muffler delete loud, or inbetween like an aggressive muffler or what?

    18" Wheels vs. 20"'s

    Yup, got 18x9s all around fitment is good but you can't go too wide on the tire. currently running the stock 235s (obviously they have weird sidewall profiles but just want to use them up). Plan is to go 255 when these are done and that would be just right for flush with fender. I put a 275 on...

    2012 black 5.0 with silver RTR's

    I suppose I have more moderate likes, but stance and height look perfect to me! and props for not going the all black route!

    unsteady idle and vibrations.

    Oh yes, that one too. Surprisingly loud actually. Again, both the 12 I owned and my 13 did this ? nature of the beast I guess.

    unsteady idle and vibrations.

    exact same here, sometimes even sounds like a little miss..noticed it more so when I took off the mufflers bc I could hear it better. The 12 I used to own did the same, just another quirk I suppose. Stock tune on both.

    Carbon Fiber Boss Rear Seat Delete

    I just have a more polar idea of racecar... I don't think finished looks and Shaker stereo... I think stripped down.... Don't get me wrong though to the point of the thread you posted, it looks damn beautiful.
