Question about tires that come with 19" premium painted luster nickel aluminum wheels

I am in the market for a 2012 or 2013 mustang. Almost all of the 2012's I've looked at have the above mentioned wheel upgrade. I've asked the dealer if these are all-season or summer-only tires, and he can't seem to answer my question. Can someone help?

Only the brembo package GT and the Perf Pkg v6 have PZeros. All others have all-season PZero Neros.

The 245/45/19 tires that come on the optional 19" wheels are all season pirelli's, not the summer only tires.

Check the tire on www.tirerack.com (is this a no-no? if so, flame me & I'll correct) and see what it is rated for. If it is a Ford OEM tire, it should be listed.

'12 & '13 tire mentions from the order guides:

12 V6: 255/40R19 "summer only"
12 V6 Premium: P235/50WRX18 BSW A/S (all season)
12 V6 Mayhem: 19x8.5 painted aluminum w/ 255/40R19 "Summer-only tires"
12 V6 MCoA: 18x8 sterling gray metallic w/ "P235/50R18 BSW A/S tires" (all season)
12 V6 Pony/GT: 18x8 (no tire mentioned)
12 GT Premium/CS: 19x8.5/19x8.5 unique (no tire mentioned)
12 Boss: 19X9.5 "with summer only tires"
12 GT/LS: 19x9/10" (f/r) "race compound tires (dry weather/summer only)"

13 V6: 17" painted (no tire mentioned)
13 V6 Premium: 17" machined aluminum (no tire mentioned)
13 V6 Pony: 18x8 (no tire mentioned)
13 V6 MCoA: 18x8 sterling gray metallic w/ P235/50R18 A/S (all season)
13 V6 Mayhem: 19x8.5 w/ 255/40R19 w/ "summer only" tires
13 GT: 18x8 sparkle silver (no tire mentioned)
13 Boss: 19x9/9.5 (f/r) painted aluminum w/ "summer only tires"

Yeah they give you a "tire mobility kit" which is basically a tire inflator b/c the spare tire well is too small to fit a tire large enough to fit over the Brembos, which seems so stupid. They couldnt expand the well an inch or two from the 05-09s? Will update the list with ur info (and any others') on home PC.
