In the rear you will need to retro the rotors to 2010-12 size and do a rear sway bar relocation kit, in the front you will need 18's and depending on the wheel may need a small spacer or swap them over to the older brakes as well.

Specifics for the rear:

1. 2012 Mustang GT rotors
2. 2012 Mustang GT caliper brackets

****You don't need new calipers****

Cheapest place to buy these...Tousley About $160.00 Total
Also, can get (non-Ford) rotors at Autozone ect to save more $

3. Rear Sway bar relocation brackets. FYI-BMR sells these

4. Front wheels- as mentioned above. I have the 2013 Shelby Front Bogarts which fit perfect but $$$

Have fun at the track!

If you have a performance package rears require relocating lower shock mount

Do they mount the shock in a different position?

You can see where the shock holes were at previously. I had to redrill new holes and weld old holes closed. The shock reservoir is DANGEROUSLY close to the rim in stock location and will hit rim.

I'm not sure if birdocs rims were made to clear them, but a RTS wheel will not clear. I know Dustin had to do a similar mod to fit his rears.

This was my white 13 setup..

I have an SVTPP car so I'm not sure about this next question. Does the non SVTPP car have shocks without the extra reservior?

I think that is correct about the non SVTPP rear shocks.

I forgot to add that point about the rear shocks ( Bilstein's ).
You can redrill the mounting point or get new rear shocks. That
was an initial reason I put QA1 rear shocks on as I have the SVTPP.

Yep, non-PP cars do not have a shock reservoir.
Would a 16" wheel help that situation?
MT makes the DR in 2 16" sizes that could work:

As well as 16" in bias-ply both 26 and 28":

Yes...16" will clear shock reservoir
