BOSS parts in the 2011 FRP catalog
#161
So the LS and S wheels are the same and will bolt right onto a Boss and have the same weight? I was told different when I called FRP a while back. They said the 302S cars used different studs just like the R, guess that was bad info. He even went as as far to say they do not recommend using the R or S wheels on a street car. So I assumed when these came out and said the wheel is the "same" as the 302S it was only for appearance and these were being sold as "Mustang LS style" wheels. It is good to learn, sorry for the mis-info.

A few more to add to the list. Jacostang was able to find the coil covers from the Boss:
CR3Z-6P067-B
CR3Z-6P067-A
If anyone has better access to Ford Parts, searching the part number "7213" will give you all the shift *****. Should be CR3Z-7213-?? to identify the black shift **** on the Boss.

Just based on the part numbers, I'm 99% sure they're correct. As I mentioned earlier, any 12MY parts that are new will carry a "C" as the leading character for model year designation. "R3Z" must be the platform designation in the prefix.

Wheels/tires: just talked to Rehagen Racing. You do NOT need wheel studs for the 302R wheels. You do need different lug nuts because the R wheels have a different chamfer angle at the bottom of the hole where the lug nut clamps on to the wheel. If you go with 275 width front tires, you do need a thin spacer for the fronts.
I just ordered the Boss 302R wheels (18x10) with Nitto NT-01 275/35/ZR18 tires front and rear.

Looks like Lloyds Mats should be able to make them. Scroll down and they have a Boss 302 Logo.

Guys, in talking with Dean (the owner/driver of Rehagen), I may have some answers to your questions above.
1. I'll certainly post pics, just as soon as I get the car, and the wheels!
2. Spacer in the front is supposed to be 1/8", and Rehagen even uses a slighter thicker one because they like the handling on their race cars with a slightly wider front track. Of course they put in longer wheel studs so they can use the thicker spacer.
3. I don't believe that the wheel size will have an effect on the processor. As long as the total diameter of the tire is about the same as factory (and its pretty darn close) then the speedometer/odometer will be pretty accurate and not effect the processor. However, I fully expect to see the TPMS light come on with the race wheels/tires. Rehagen said that it would probably take a few hours before it came on though. I won't put TPMS sensors in the race wheels and tires.
4. I really think that the BBS wheels are the way to go. They are competition proven, very light weight (only twenty pounds each), FIA approved and their smaller diameter will create a quicker turn-in.
5. Total cost: 4 Boss 302R wheels, 4 Nitto NT-01 tires 275/35/ZR18, 20 lug nuts, 2 wheel spacers, tires mounted and balanced, shipped to my door: $3600.00

Is anyone who will track their car planning on just upgrading to braided steel lines? I have no idea what "low compressibility" actually means relative to stock or steel braided. I noticed a huge improvement on my GT500 with the Goodridge lines compared to stock.
