I'm 245/45 PSS on a 17x9 and it's a little too much stretch for me. I'm going to a 255 for the next set of tires. Personally I'd run a 265/35 on a x9.5 or a 255 at minimum.

If that helps you any..

Very impressed with the fit and finish so far. Can't wait to do some high speed track testing with it.

Do you have a picture of where you had to modify the stock underbody panels?

I'm running 245/40 on an 18x8.75, and I think it's perfect, so I would think 245/35 would be way too much stretch (personally) for a 9.5. Also, a smaller sidewall will emphasis any stretch, if you're in between ratios

Back to stock catback... for stealth

That looks a million times better than the Farbon fiber wrap in my 2015...

Ugh. I wish mine sounded that good with stock catback. I'm going to have to get a Perrin or Invidia Q300 to make mine sound the way I want. Ugh, money

haha

Tried my best to color match the black center caps of the new wheels to the powdercoat color.

Before.

Color is pretty close when the wheels are clean (which I did afterwards.) Bit diassapointing that an OEM Ford color did the trick, but Im going to convince myself that it doesnt have the depth of the powder, haha. Trying to figure out what to do for sticker over caps. Thinking the ALIEN design much like the one on my shift knob. Perhaps it will deter thieves and touchy passers-by.

One more since Silver looks awesome under the gloom swept skies of Washington.

Time to enjoy the boosted life.

How was the install? Pretty simple? How's boosted life working out?

The install was incredibly easy, the only downside to my install was that I accidentally broke a tab on the bumper so now it don't sit flush anymore.

The boosted life is pretty amazing though.
