4.5 second 0-60?
#22
Well I'm still debating on a '14. But if I do I'm getting a GT/CS with the 19x8.5's I believe. I have no idea what tires come on those. You wouldn't happen to know where I can find that info other than Ford?
Anyways, 235's is pretty ridiculous considering I ran 255's on a 250hp 289 in a 68 Mustang and still slid around like socks on a tile floor.

Yes I am on stock tires, and yes I am spinning tires like crazy. I ran 5.1 with 2.73's, I didn't realize how wet the ground was as it was dark out, but it's fairly wet out I realized it had rained a little and that might be why I can't get any traction. I will see again tomorrow. I'm not getting new tires/wheels till spring, so hoping its just the wetness.

I know nothing about tires. Obviously I have michelin all-seasons stock on the car. I'm not looking for drag radials obviously, but what is something to look for when I pick up a wheel/tire combo for the spring?
How about a set of AMR's with the HTR Z III's? Are they enough to give me traction? I would use them April-October and switch to stock for winter.

I never defeat the tc. It's actually amazing how much wheelspin it will allow without stepping in. I usually try a launch to see how the traction is then determine if I need to feather the throttle in or if I can just hammer it.

Bro that's sick times for a v6 with 2.73 gears. Might I recommend a sct bama performance tuner and install the Hybrid tune. This should drop your 0-60 even more and pack a sweet hard punch. The most aggressive and powerful tune that AM offers right now. So sweet.

The track apps in the '13 premiums...and yes I feel a huge difference, but the biggest difference I have felt it with the 93 Hybrid Bama tune. The problem with the gears is traction loss. I chirp until 4th gear.

You so need to upgrade those stock tires. Way to much gear for the stock tires. Lol. I just installed a 91 Hybrid tune. Its freaking awesome. It really pulls that pony fast.
