My dealership has no idea what brand of tire will come with the fanblades. Has anyone seen them first-hand yet? Pirelli? BFG?

Have not seen an 06 with 18s in person yet, but my understanding is that you get BFGs (most likely all-season) with them (and still get Pirellis with 17s).

Im still hoping for the Goodyear RS-A's that are mounted up on Brads pics of the Fanblades and Bullits.
in 04 4% of Fords tires were BFG
7% was pirelli
30% was Goodyear

The odds are with me!

We should know any day now, as more folks in this forum receive theirs. I found out from the ERL this morning that mine was shipped via rail carrier two days ago.

Stephen is exactly right. I drove by Echelon Ford at 8am this morning and they are g-force T/A's as above...

Its a good tire, I had it on my Ford Probe GT, although 255's with performance tires would have been even better.
