[QUOTE="DHG1078, post: 14513515, member: 65442"] According to ford, they chose this setup because lots of the really fast super cars uses this setup. An advantage though is that you can get as large of a contact patch as possible on the ground for added grip. You are correct in that you can't rotate from front to back, but you still can rotate side to side if you have non-directional tires. Tread wear expectancy is reduced a little because of this. I have a staggered setup on my mustang and have run both nitto nt05 and nt555. The rears always last me 10k+ miles with no rotation. I actually think I have 18k+on my nt05 right now, but I'm past the marker bars on the tire depth indicators lol. If you don't drive tons it's not a big deal. If you do drive a lot it is something to consider. Maintaining a consistent/good tire pressure and alignment makes a big difference. The wheels are close enough in size though you could replace them with the same size tire later on, but it may not look as good as the rear will look less bulgy as the front. Oh last thing. It's not a track pack, it's a performance pack on the '15 mustangs. [/QUOTE]
