:scratch: Hmmmmm, mine are Pirelli's

 

BF Goodrich is supplying the 18" tires that we can't order.

 

Misread.

 

aren't the v6's getting BFG's I know mine are Pirellis, but I gotta GT

 

Quote marks are for a reason. "Original equipment on the '05 Mustang."

I could scan it, but my scanner wouldn't upload to my hard drive. Maybe I can email it to someone? [/b][/quote]
I have seen this ad too. 16" wheels have the BFGoodrich Traction T/A's (which aren't all that great). So yea, they are original equipment, but just in the 16" package. If they were on the 17" package, the tires would be g-force KDWS' and they are worse the the T/A's!

 

The Canadian brochure I have shows the gt with the upgrade 17" polished rims wearing BFG Gforce-TA KDW-NT, but the cars all have Pirelli's. FORD sure is screwing up their advertising.

Brewdog, do you know what you are talking about. BFG Gforce-TA KDW-NT are the best tires BFG makes

 

I constantly warranty out the g-force KDWS! they constanly feather on the outer edges. They built the g-forces for handling, but when you throw in traction and wet and snow, it caused that specific tire (the KDWS) to feather constantly. DOn't get me wrong, if you buy these tires and dont corner hard with them, they'll survive, but if they are used for the purpose people buy the g-force series it wont hold up!

 

So the Goodrich tires are OEM on the V6? Can someone with a V6 confirm this? [/b][/quote]
Take a look at this pic:

maybe we are not talking about the same tire. You keep saying KDWS, I am talking about the Gforce-TA KDW-NT which are a summer tire only....noooooooooooo snow!

Yea, and me being a stubborn jerk and not just saying, hey we're talking about two different tires, I went the long way around to say it, so I apologize, but the KDWS are crap, Im not sure about the ones you are talking about, never experienced them, used and sold lots of the kdws and still junk. It's amazing even with warnign from me people still continue to buy them.

The KDWS's are a good tire. I've had them on my Probe GT before I bought my 05 GT. But you are right, they do disintegrate on the outer edge pretty quickly if you corner hard. If you're going for performance, you have to go KDW. Best tire on the market from what I've heard. They'll be on my 05 when I get new rims.

 

I saw that ad for the Goodrich tires too. Also I saw that Pro-Ripper was going to be the shifter in all the 05 GT's. Anyone else read that too or am I imagining it??
