Over time, some Ford models originally developed in the US for the North American market found their way to Europe, too. Examples include the Mustang, of course, and the Explorer. The Edge also fell into this category. The SUV was available in Europe for a good four and a half years and was intended to take off as the big brother above the popular Kuga. However, its success was rather limited: just under 18,000 units were sold and registered in Germany, making the Edge rather exotic. The rarity factor, which was already guaranteed in its standard form, is greatly enhanced in the case of the example presented here. A high-quality Barracuda Racing Wheels rim set contributes to this.
More specifically, owner Sascha's Edge is fitted with Project 2.0 wheels from Barracuda's Ultralight Series. Thanks to the Flow Forged manufacturing process, these wheels are very lightweight. Despite their generous dimensions of 9x21 inches, they weigh only about 11.9 kilograms. The tires measure 245/40R21 and, with their high-gloss black brushed finish, the rims match the black paintwork of the Ford perfectly.
To further enhance its eye-catching qualities, the Edge received a fender flares upgrade from SS Tuning, which specializes in such widebodies for Ford models. In addition to the fender extensions, the kit also includes attachments for the side skirts and rear apron. The front end has also been modified. It features a radiator grille without a brand logo and a spoiler lip, among other things. An Air Lift Performance air suspension system perfectly rounds off the look. At the touch of a button, it allows the Edge, which is typically somewhat high-legged ex works, to sit extremely low and firmly on the road. Last but not least, a Brembo brake system ensures optimized deceleration values.
Breathtaking videos from Barracuda are available on the YouTube channel “Barracuda Racing Wheels” or interactively on the Instagram profile “barracuda.wheels” or the Facebook page “Barracuda Europe Racing Wheels”. The light alloy wheels from the extensive Barracuda rim range are available from car dealerships or well-stocked tire and specialist retailers.
