Finally got my 2016 GT
Well I finally got my GT a month ago. I have already installed Roush single coil overs, off road H-pipe, and axle back Roush exhaust. I had it for two weeks while I waited for my Roush supercharger. Boy what a difference that made. It's scary fast now. I know Roush rates it at 670hp but the guys there said its really closer to 700hp. I haven't had it on a dyno yet but I want too. I'm just curious to see what it's putting out.

Well i doubt anyone would feel the difference driving it. I just like the sound of 700 over 670 
. It is very fun to drive. Tires break lose in 3rd though and its hard getting traction off the line. First gear goes so fast. I am about to get new rims and tires for the back. I have the PP and Im thinking of taking the 275s off the back and moving them to the front. Im gonna buy new 19x10 rims from AM and put NItto 555G2 305 tires on them. Here is a question for anyone that wants to answer. The 275s are 40 but the 305s will be 30. I put a Roush single coil on it already so it dropped the front end 1.5in and the rear 1 inch. Should I get 20s for the back instead of 19s? That would give me 275/40/19 in the front and 305/35/20 in the back. Thoughts?

Well ****......if i get the 20 inch the only size they have for the 305 is 305/30/20. In 19 inch they have 305/35/19. I really don't like going with a super low profile tire. 35 is pretty low already and 30 is worse. The fronts will be 40.

if you use a 305/35/20 on the rear it will rub if you have lowered the car. I have 305/35/20 on y rear and they clear but I am stock suspension with 275/30/20 on the front
the bigger 305s on the rear with the supercharger are the ticket I wish I could fit some 315s on the rear but I don't want rocks all over my paint as 315 sticks out more
