Big brakes and coil overs

Snapped a few pics of the most recent upgrades. Baer big brake kit and ridetech coil overs. Very happy so far, here’s a few pics.

Re: Big brakes and coil overs

Love love love those wheels! (I know, I said that on IG too lol) Is your garage floor Swisstrax? If so, how do you like it? Also, how do you like the Ridetech setup compared to springs/shocks/struts?

Thanks man! Yes the garage floor is Swisstrax, had it about a month. So far I really like it, looks great and very well made. I will have a full opinion once I make it through the winter season.

The ride tech setup seems to be great quality, the car rides lower than it did with my H&R SS springs and stock suspension but is much smoother all around. I feel much more confident in the way it handles even with it being so low.

I think you will be very happy, I am. After driving my Hellcat daily the Mach brakes just felt weak. I haven’t logged many miles with my new Baer 6 pistons but they feel amazing so far.

Re: Big brakes and coil overs

I wish we could get away with big brakes and the stock wheels, if so I’d have done it already

Re: Big brakes and coil overs

Greetings other Oxford white Mach 1 owner,
mine is an 03, I wondered how your brake swap turned out, and which set you decided on. I am thinking also of an upgrade, considering Baer or Wilwood. Stock 5-speed. Original owner 188,000 miles.
Thanks and be well.
Scott
