  1. Dark Horse Air Strakes.

    Same here, installed them the other day actually. I think it’s worth it, you paid for them when you bought the car, and if you can reduce the turbulent air going to the rear wheels, why wouldn’t you? I’m sure everyday driving, you won’t notice anything really, but I’m sure they make a...
  2. Looking for upgrades for track use (novice driver)

    I’d leave the front bar alone. The bars are the same out of the DH. If anything, it’s the rear bar that could be worth a change, but from what I read, it can make the car quite uncomfortable for daily driving. Instead of going to that extreme, I would lower the car first. That’ll give it a...
  3. S550 vs S650

    Definitely. I think the chassis of the 1le is still more sorted, but I think Ford did a good job narrowing the gap a bit with the 650, and then even further with slight modification. I would need to actually drive a 1le spiritedly again though because it’s been a long time. I think Ford...
  4. S550 vs S650

    In stock form, it is night and day from both. They are such good cars, I would love to own one again someday. Now that my 650 has the track shocks and springs, as well as 295 fronts, 305 rears, the gap has decreased significantly. It’s honestly hard to tell which one handles better. Some days I...
  5. S550 vs S650

    It was probably by design. Ford couldn’t have the PP and DH non-hp challenge their halo car. Best way to do that was in the tire selection and size.
  6. S550 vs S650

    As someone who has had 2 s550s and an ss1le, my s650 is night and day so much better than my 550s. It was hard to be confident coming in and out of turns in the 550. The 650 dramatically improved on this. The steering rack may not communicate as much as I would like in the 650, but I can tell...
  7. Anyone know where I can find a set of OEM s550 PP2 wheels?

    I think this will be the route I end up going. I reached out to Ford Racing to try my luck and they are completely discontinued with no stock left over :/
  8. Anyone know where I can find a set of OEM s550 PP2 wheels?

    I saw this one, they unfortunate only have one 10.5
  9. Anyone know where I can find a set of OEM s550 PP2 wheels?

    Looks like the wheels in the size I am looking for are no longer produced by Ford. They still produce the 19x9.5/19x10, but I am looking for the 19x10.5/19x11. If anyone knows where I could locate set, I’ve tried looking to no avail
  10. Front tires out of round

    Sounds good, thank you sir! You do the same.
  11. Front tires out of round

    Thank you for the help. I’ll leave the pic of that wheel here as well
  12. Front tires out of round

    Here is a video, but I think it may be hard to tell. Going to call discount again in the morning and let them know it hasn’t been resolved.
  13. Front tires out of round

    @tj@steeda What do you think?
  14. Front tires out of round

    1. Yes, stock/factory rims and tires were fine, no vibration. 2. The vibration/shake occurs from 50 mph to about 70 mph. 3. The vibration/shake is not felt from the wheel or the seat, it is a visible vibration/shake when you take both hands off the wheel. Nothing abnormal is felt. 4. Yes...
  15. Front tires out of round

    I honestly do think it has something to do with the wheel, the one has a long strip of weight on it. I appreciate it though, this has really been a headache. He told me to give it a day and drive it around for a little while because it may need to settle, but I haven’t heard that advice before...
  16. Front tires out of round

    Currently 35 cold. It’s a very small visible vibration when letting go of the wheel, no vibration felt when hands are on, nor is it shaking my hands
  17. Front tires out of round

    Thank you! The car doesn’t feel like it’s affected by it, so I wouldn’t say it’s even noticeable. My ocd wants it resolved though!
  18. Front tires out of round

    It is vibrating very slightly at or around 50 mph and goes away after exceeding 70. It is noticeable with no hands present on the wheel. When my hands are on the wheel, I don’t feel anything that is an abnormal vibration. I would film it with my phone, but honestly the camera can’t even pick it up.
  19. Front tires out of round

    Well this will make it even more difficult lol. I wanted the mph to be as close as possible to the stock setup. The stock setup is 255/40r19 in the front, 275/40r19 rear. The steedas are 295/35r19 front, 305/35r19 rear
  20. Front tires out of round

    Update 2: Took the wheels and tires in, they threw them on the roadforce balancer and took me back so I could watch, everything checked out and the wheels themselves didn’t seem to have any pressing imperfections. They were out of balance and the one was 3 oz out of balance. They said that Ford...
