As soon as I start to explain about 3.73 vs stock or the like, she just roles her eyes and hums loudly.

But otherwise I'm lucky.
Definitely a keeper.

can I ask why you have 20's but your sig says you have 19's? Also you say it's lowered an inch, but it's looking to be more than that just from the pics.

I will have to look again, the dealer installed this stuff, but I could have sworn it was 255/35/19

But re-looking at the hweel pic, they may be 20's. I have had 2 days, so I only went over the body to make sure it has no dings repaints etc. I never paid close attention to the wheels.

Parked next to my 2013 I traded for it, it was only an inch lower than stock, 1.5 at most.

they are not. It's clear by not only the diameter of the wheel, but also the simple fact that your front left tire says "255/35R20"

Congrats on the larger diameter wheels you were unaware of.

Yeah, I'm thinking you have FRPP K-Springs, likely. Unless they decided to really go outside of the box for parts.

By the way, the wheels look seriously awesome. I'll be putting my 20's on my Mustang for the first time on Saturday.

Thanks for pointing that out Diva.

I couldn't read the lettering on the pics (old age) I walked outside flashlight in hand, and NO ****, 235/55/R20s

Imagine my friggin' surprise. I have to take the other key from my previous 2013 to dealer tomorrow night, I am going to ask them if they have the paperwork from the conversion so I can see which springs are on it.

OK, so I took the car to the dealer, and learned it has K Springs on it, as well as the Gt500 control arms. So that is a relief to know what mods are done versus, what I may not need to do down the road.
