I think its 53. Forgestar recommended the offset after a measuring session on the S550. They are not sharing secrets since its a new offset.
No it's not. The S550 takes the same offsets the S197 did. I measured it all up myself.

We're putting 20x12's with 345's on ours.:beerdrink:

I was eye balling the Comp-O we got and very tempted to test fit my 20x12 Rotiforms on it.

They won't fit unless you move the shock and the parking brake cable routing. We already figured the shock thing out. It's really quite easy. We may do a kit and make it available. It would work with stock style shocks. We're probably going to do some custom Penske's on ours though.:beerchug2:

I think 345 will be to big. 305 is perfect. Both Forgestar and HRE said they changed the offset.

Wheels and Windows. Getting new lugs tomorrow. They are too long and a different pitch than 11-14. I think 305/35 is perfect size.

Damn, seriously? That is a lot of tire. Going to look meaty.

Yep, for serious.:thumb:

When I first got under one of these about a year ago (I didn't have a tape measure with me) I was sure that we could stuff some MEAT under there. There is a ton of room aside from the shock location. And that is an easy solution.

We may even be able to go 355!

This new body style is sensitive to camera angle. Looks good.

Curtis,

Just wanted to tell you that is a beautiful Bright Orange Mustang.

That's not a color one sees very frequently.

You did good. :hi:

I really like the Ass-End shot. !!!

Thanks for sharing the pictures.
