Please to god, tell me you are joking. You realise that you will totally screw that car up, if you dont have shocks on it correct? This was just to check potential install heights for custom shocks? :willy

I get that you want me to compare the old to the new. But it is not going to be lower then the front. You would be more correct in saying "the new set up lowers the rear by 1/2 an inch more then the OLD set up" because this other stuff about the car being lower then the front, is just not...

Correct (kind of) my good friend, here are the rolling diamiters for my recommendations: Front= 25.9 inches Rear=27.4 inchest BUT, can you believe the CAR as it stands now is WORSE then that?: Front = 26.3 Rear = 28.9 So if you are bothered by my 1/2 an inch, this Full inch has got to be...

Cool thanks !! Dont suppose you have a photo of it? I ask because that same control arm may be in the way of a wider rear tire. Thanks. Jon

Thanks 1 of 101 . But I still stick by my assessment, I believe its correct. The tires that are on the Ford GT right now up front are the SMALLEST allowable size, per tire rack for a 9.5 inch rim. Where as my suggestion is a hair bit more the the LARGEST allowable size. This same deal of...

Hey Guys, So as I watched more snow fall in Chicago the other day, I thought how painful this process is of waiting for good weather until I buy my GT. But, it gave me some time to think about both of the weaknesses I keep hearing about the GT, the braking and the handling, relative to the...

So what about going larger? Anyone done the calculations, and checked tire availability? I have run all sorts of times on my viper, and I actually prefer the Michellen Pilot Sports. So what pilot sports will fit best on the stock rims? Here is a cool tool, to make sure you stay with the same...

You would be correct, I for some reason was measuring the tire weights as the wheel weights. My bad, I concur, the weight saving advantage is in fact 32.2 lbs, even better !! :biggrin Jon PS. I am revisting these posts, because I want to see what the largest size tire we can put on the...

lol on the spinners.. Next thing you know, his car will be in the Fast and Fuzzy 3, "pimps strike back". Sorry, to each his own, but neon went out (if in fact it was ever IN), back in the early 90's. Jon

Uh, save the Rice for Imports... God, tell me this was a joke thread. :frown Jon

MSRP is the norm now. Anyone who takes 2 seconds to call a couple of dealers will be able to get that on the Tungsten Grey ones, let alone the other colors that have two years of production. I'd try to work them at least 1 or 2k below sticker... but like someone else is saying, at least you...

You dont need coating on Stainless steal. Heat shields though, would be a good idea. Jon

Cool!! Thats right in back yard !! Autobahn seems like a great place, I did a review of the place about a month ago, and was impressed. Now I'll hold my breath and see if I can materialize a Ford GT in time for this event!! Jon

No trade here, let me know when you want to get serious on price. So far I have one Southern States Dealership willing to take 2k off Sticker on 2006 tungsten grey. And I have 2 dealerships willing to do sticker. Wont need the car until spring.. but if someone makes me an offer I can refuse...

Thanks !! I even set it up to remind me the day of the show, you can do it right on the site !! Jon

Well, lets not get too crazy, members pay $100 a year in dues, and supposedly only $50 of it goes to the local club. So Chrysler does do an excellent job supporting us, but we do a pretty decent job of supporting ourselves too. Also thanks to the other two posts, I received another call...

28.8 lbs difference total. Not bad, especially since I like the new performance wheels better ;) Jon

Yes, admitedly ViperClub and Dodge have partnered very well. We have a very tight nitt club, and most people know each other, or know of each other. Its really a family feel, we even have our black sheeps (like me). I would love to See Ford step up and support a formal Ford GT car club, and...

Steve & Saber, Thanks, you both seem like the kind of members that will add value to the ownership experience. Clubs lucky to have you both. Again Steve, appeciate the PM. Frank, so there is more then one of you really rich guys huh ? lol, see I wasnt even counting you. I was talking about...

Steve, I did blend my response. It was to address a number of the posts that came after mine. (notice how I didnt address it to you, like this one does) Like I said, I didnt get my feelings hurt, I was explaining the perspective I have on the situation. I still like my analagy on coffee...
