Brad,

Prior to the official Ford Mustang brochure being introduced, you posted a '05 spec sheet, I think it was on the '05 timeline link.; do you recall what Ford listed for the "proposed" 18" tire size? I think this would help with all the speculation on what size to get.

Thanks!

255/45ZR18
vs
235/55R17 on it now

They are the same radius

I can't find that info; Ford must've cleared it off their media site.

What width rim would you use?8 inch or 9?

IMO you would want a 9 inch rim.

The smaller the sidewall, the closer to the tire size you will need.
