What are you adding if anything to make heel toe downshifting easier?

The pedals are just a touch too far apart IMHO...

I actually find this to be the easiest mustang I've owned to Heel-Toe, and I'm a small guy. I felt the pedals were an improvement over past versions. Are you coming from a different type vehicle?

How big are your feet? Lol. My feet are barely wide enough to have one side on the brake and even touch the gas with the other.

I used to do more of a side roll to blip the throttle, not really a heel and toe.

I find with most modern vehicles, the differences in pedal height in stock form (from what I've been told, a safety feature so people don't accidentally hit the wrong pedal) makes it difficult to heel-toe. I feel like I'm going to roll my ankle painfully if I successfully pull it off, and the fact the brake pedal is so much higher almost always means I will have to apply full brake pressure in order to reach the gas pedal which isn't always desired. The pedal heights in the above photo with the aftermarket pedals look much more closer to equal.
