[sdsteele2]

thanks how do i check if i have points totaly new to me !! i bought a 2022 bronco last year i may have point from that too!!

Do you have the FordPass phone app for remote start, vehicle status, etc? If so, click on your account in the upper right corner (iPhone, can't help with Android) and it will be listed under FordPass Rewards.

Or you can check on the website FordPass Support

Just FYI - the point conversion is something like 200 points = $1. That 42k points is worth ~$200.

A new Ford purchase is always 42k points (used is 22k). You also should get points for purchasing parts and service.

Dark Horse is no different than a Mach 1. Go with the AA spare shown in post #1.

Might try to put together a wheel/tire on my own.

I'm in Canada and Automotive Authority want 211$ to ship that tire/wheel to my house.

I am in Canada as well, however searching out a rim and tire and a guaranteed fit could be well worth the $211.

A spare that is popular with Australian S550 owners is this one:

(This ad is from S550 days.)

I don't know if the actual wheel above is the same as what is available in the US.
My very specific question, probably for those that are coming from an S550:

Q) Will the same spare wheel that fits over an S550 with Brembos ALSO fit on an S650 with it's Brembos?

Apparently the 2024 PP Brembo rotors are larger than previous years. So, probably not.

Yes, the rotors are larger.
But the actual calipers have the same description "six-piston 36mm fixed aluminium calipers".

From S550 brochure:

From S650 brochure:

There must be somebody out there that has traded in their S550 for an S650 who can definitively answer this.

How did you secure the tire to the trunk floor? Does the rod and nut come with the kit or do I have to order it from dealer.

just ordered the kit. Picking up my dark horse in a week when the weather warms up

In the original post I’m using the mount from Ford.

Ok. Thanks. I’ll order one.

I used the one that came with the car... holding down the inflator/sealant pack.

 

[sknsr]

Thanks!!!! Didn’t know what’s in the trunk yet.
