'04 SVTF here. about 18250 miles. Only problem is a steering wheel vibration from 65mph on up. It's really bad at 70mph and lessens at 85+. Got worse after I rotated my tires. Did the basic tests--it's likely not the drivetrain.

Considering somehow I got 03 rims, cheap-azz Mastercraft tires (got a deal on the car though) when bought, I have the feeling either bad tires (they flat spot easily) or fromreading posts, a bend rim.

Otherwise, love the car, looks good with the stang (and same style SVT rims too).

Sounds cool, except for your tire problem. I know its tough alot of times when it comes to money, I would of kept the tires also... Good tires make all the differance, but expensive as HELL!!!!!
