15 inch rear wheel on an S550 Mustang. AED knuckle conversion

[@NotQuik]

Looks good! I'm looking forward to seeing another track outing (video) of your car. It's part of my motivation as it's kind of on the same path...

[@CORNYOTE]

This weekend I’ll be running in the daily driver class. Should be fun. Weather is still going to be hot unfortunately.

[@walter3700]

Looks strong, nice work!!!

[@christeeple2287]

Do you have all the info on the brakes you went with? I am using the same wheels and like how you set them back with less spacer. I’m using 3/4 spacer now.

[@CORNYOTE]

Unfortunately none of it is a simple bolt on. Some of the parts will have to be modified. 2ea Wilwood Rotor 160-5841 (need to be safety wired to hat and must have the outer diameter machined down 1/16” on either a lathe or brake rotor machine) 2ea Wilwood Hat 170-7632 (must be drilled or machined for 14mm studs) 2ea Wilwood Caliper 120-9693-RD (RD signifies red caliper color) 1ea Wilwood Pads 150-9418K Brake line 220-13913 NB-AERO Polycarbon Hubcentric Center Ring 71.5mm to 76MM 3mm spacer 5x4.5 76MM bore (Caliper bolts will have to be sourced locally)

[@christeeple2287]

Thank you for the info. This was very simple to do. I recommend to everyone. No issues.

[@50calprepper]

Hello.. I know video is a little old, but do you remember the specs or part numbers for the rear brakes? I’m assuming the Baer brakes won’t work? Since there will be modifications needed to the hats, I know you said these are not an off the shelf fit for mustang. Thanks for any info you can provide

[@CORNYOTE]

These are the parts you’ll need. 2ea Rotor 160-5841 2ea Hat 170-7632 (will have to be drilled for 14mm studs) 2ea Caliper 120-9693-RD (-rd is red) 1ea Pads 150-9418K Brake line 220-13913 NB-AERO Polycarbon Hubcentric Center Ring 71.5mm to 76MM 3mm spacer 5x4.5 76MM bore

I'm trying to figure out on mine if i can fit a 345-40r17 almost flush or with no more then 3/8s poke and I've seen a few guys run 315-35r19 on +50 offset have a flush fit so i did some math and in theory the 345-40r17 on a 56+ offset with that Viking bracket to turn the shock inborn to give more room should fit & give incredible traction. with around 1/4 inch poke. what are yawls Thoughts?

[@CORNYOTE]

I’ve ran 325/30R19’s on mine with a 19x11 wheel. A 345 will probably need a lot of negative camber to clear the fender.

[@CORNYOTE]

This is the setup for the 19. 19x11 Backspacing 8 in Offset +50 mm

[@westernlsmotors3454]

if the 345 isn't possible ill run what you got in this vid, i found a rear subframe its a tubular and puts the brakes inwards so by the differential which eliminates that problem@@CORNYOTE

[@racinjason424]

Looks great. What is the backspacing on that 15x11 wheel?

[@CORNYOTE]

8.5” BS. Just keep in mind it’s not a direct fit without a lot of work and the AED knuckles and custom brakes. 👍🏻

[@racinjason424]

@@CORNYOTE Thanks for the quick reply. I plan on the AED knuckles & some grinding.. Lol.. Do you still need spacers if you use the Baer 15" conversion brakes and Weld wheels? Thanks again man. Happy Thanksgiving.

[@CORNYOTE]

So if you go to baer brakes and a weld 15x9.33 wheel you don’t need the knuckles or any grinding or spacers.

[@CORNYOTE]

Anything over a 9.33 weld and you’ll have to do a custom brake setup and the knuckles. The baer brakes will not work with weld wheels over 15x9.33 without a significant spacer.

[@BoostaholicRacing]

Looks sick! 🤘🏼

[@CORNYOTE]

Thanks man!

[@BarnfindGT]

Do you have an IG or any more pic of you car with the 15in conversion really debating on doing the conversion on my car lol

[@CORNYOTE]

Yep @cornyote

[@westernlsmotors3454]

What's that wheel Offset?

[@CORNYOTE]

It’s a 15x11 with a 8.5 BS. Requires AED’s billet knuckles and custom rear brakes to run.

[@luisvelez585]

You think a 315/60/15 street r will fit

[@CORNYOTE]

It’d be tight. I couldn’t say for sure though. If I get ahold of one, I’ll try it out and let you know

[@luisvelez585]

@@CORNYOTE so for the 325/50/15 you have now Is there any rubbing

[@CORNYOTE]

@@luisvelez585 not now. It’s close though. REAL close. Initially I had to do a lot of suspension clearancing but it’s all worked out now. Definitely have to run the AED billet knuckles and a custom brake setup to clear the RC wheel though.

[@luisvelez585]

@@CORNYOTE do you have lowering springs because I have bmr springs

[@CORNYOTE]

@@luisvelez585 I have Steeda progressive springs with a 1” drop, but I run a 1/4 steeda spacer on them to keep the ride a tiny bit higher so I don’t scrape on steep inclines like driveways and parking lots

[@carmob7499]

Sick setup , Looks bad A$$.

[@jasonkubik1016]

So Mr. Cornyote when is the other blue car going to receive some love? 😁

[@CORNYOTE]

Lmao! *SOMEDAY*
