Machine, I'm hoping that you already know this, but for those that may not: you need to reprogram your PCM for the correct outer diameter of the wheels.
I believe that the outside diameter is SMALLER on SN95 stock sized wheels/tires. (ie: SN95 had 245/45/17, S197's have 235/55/17; the cobra wheels take 275/40/17, but that is the same diameter as the 245's, more or less; applying quick math, the SN95 tires are about 25.7" diameter, and the S197 are ~27.2"). If you go to tire rack, you can get the exact diameter of the tire for each size.
Machine, since you have an Xcal2, this shouldn't be an issue to have adjusted.

Nice... I am thinking about stripes on mine as well. I am torn between silver... I really like the way it pops and going with the dark metallic like you have. It is very understated and elegant. I am also thinking of using a wheel like you are using with the dark silver charcoal and that goes well with the stripes. I am thinking about Koing Beyonds but I really like yours as well. The rear spoiler looks great. Overall… I give it a 10.5 outa 10!

Awesome car, although I guess I am in the minority not liking the wheels. IMHO, the offset on the sn95 wheels doesn't ever look right on the new cars, but otherwise very nice. I will be installing the louvers on my wife's car Friday morning...

i helped him out with the install, best thing is to buy the cutting kit that SHR sells, Ford REALLY knows how to seal a window, it was rough work that took about 4+ hours just to remove both windows with the materials we had, the SHR kit would maybe cut that down and help
