New Wheels and Tires on my GT/CS

Got the wheels and tires mounted yesterday. They are 2015 Ecoboost PP take offs. 255/40/19 on a 9" wide rim and 10.2" to the ground.

I like them a bunch over the stockers.

Nice! I really like those wheels for stocks, and they look great on the S197!

Yeah I tried to find a picture of those wheels on an s197 and couldn't find one so decided I'd bite the bullet anyway cuz I thought that they were going to be nice and I'm glad I wasn't wrong. Reasonibly priced too. Thanks!

They are several places. Check them all to get the best deal... Just saying. There's a good swing in $ out there.

I like the Colorado of my car too! LoL. The all black is not for everyone but works great with the DIB.

Looks great! Aren't the stock tires on the 2015's, staggered fitment? 255/275? Or is that just the 5.0's? hmmm I don't know.

regardless, looks good!

These are New Take Off 2015 Performance Pack Ecoboost wheels and tires and they are not staggered.

I think the Performance Pack GT's have the staggered rims/tires.

that was overkill for my bolt on car and I've had staggered before and don't like not being able to rotate the tires.

having driven a bit on these since install I can say I love them over the stockers. Wheels are so much more appealing and the tires are way quieter and better riding over the p-zeros.

Looking good! It's always funny to me when people say that their tires are loud. How do you hear your tires over the engine & exhaust sound? I can honestly say that I don't hear my tires and I'm only sporting quad GT500's...nothing else.

very rough roads here in the great southwest. exposed stone without the binding agents on older surfaces. a harder compound tire (ie stock p-zeros to get the mileage) will ride rougher and have more tire noise than these softer ones. think of the difference from a truck tire to a car tire and the road noise you'd hear on the same road, that's the difference from the stockers to these.

That makes sense, but still not understanding how someone driving a mustang is concerned with "noise."
