Toying with the idea of going 315 rear and 275 front but, will wait till the current tires need replacing. Prices for new Ford Perf. GT PP Wheels aren't bad if you shop around.

Congratulations! Post pics here once you get your car. Would love to see it!

The 5 month wait is finally over. Got the call from my dealer this morning, she's in PDI. I reminded him not to put any stickers, appleques or such on the car to absolutely not put the front license plate bracket on!
Hoping to have pictures up by tomorrow afternoon

Congrats man! Seem we have similar cars, except yours is manual.. Read in you profile you plan to add the performance tower strut...mine came with one, don't know why, as it does not have the PP... Or are you referring about a different one?

Every convertible GT I've seen has the strut tower brace.

You know, that's the way it was in 2015 too, but I have seen several GT Verts at dealers without. Oh well, I may get to return the one I bought. Or, maybe put it on and use the OEM one for target practice!

I think Rapid Red, with bronze wheels, is gonna be a great combo!!

That’s what mine is

There is another thread in this forum, where we were trying to figure out why some have the struts and others don't ,similar specs on the car, but one with , the other without...
My strut seems to be missing something, a plaque with a logo or something at the top, there are holes like something was supposed to be attached there....many have the same strut with missing plaque....maybe the plaque is just for performance package?

So far, with the S650, only Dark Horses are getting plaques on their strut tower braces. Ford went cheap on the GT PP. I'm curios if the California Special will have one like my 2020 does?
