svt performance package on 5.0

I just read the 5.0 MUSTANG & SUPER FORDS article on the 5.0. Impressive, I expected no less. But they make reference to the svt performance package. I know there is such a beast on the gt500, but does something like this exist on the 5.0 or are they just referring to the Brembo Brake package? I haven't seen the svt performance pack on ford's build and price program.

Further on the Brembo package, are these the most aggressive tires available on the 5.0. The reason I ask is that 255's seem to be over powered with 400 ponies. I'm trying to anticipate if I'll have to ultimately go after market and if so is it wise to get the brakes as I won't be doing track style braking unless something in my life has gone terribly wrong and it makes sense to run from the police. Which ultimately never works out well.

I just read that article. I think they meant "Brembo Brake Package". Yes, 255s are the widest tires you can order on the 5.0.

Thanks coffee, that was my assumption as well. If anyone else has different information, please chime in.
