Hi Ice, car looks fantastic. The total wheel diameter does come down a bit so yes, car is lower. With new wheels, notice any handling improvement on stock shocks? The HP does include different springs with those wheels. Did you need to change car document for those sizes and was it necessary to get a dealer approval for the 325s? Cheers
@icemach1964Ай бұрын
Hi, it definitely feels lower, the car actually looks lowered. The car handles really well, I did a google search an it looks like the shocks are the same on all Mach 1s with Magna ride. I have not changed any documentation, the wheels are official Ford Performance items and TBH the dealer does not seem to care, they love my car. Thanks for watching :)
