To add. I'm aware that some coupes got the f1's. Technically they are interchangeable being the same size and type. But the f1's are an inferior tire (neither are great, but for an OE tire). It sucks ford did this to some. The good years were designed for the verts due to the assumed cruising vs the coupe which had the assumed racing and sporty drivers. Just like they assumed the oil needed to be 5w50 on track packs even though it's the same motor as the non tp which calls for 5w20. They assumed you drive harder with the track pack. Just because they are both summer tires doesn't make their performance equal. It just means they both suck on ice.

F1's are inferior? Wow, have had both on my car and can say the Pirelli's did not hook and were noisy. The Good Years are quiet and have much more bite. I have not tracked either one though so couldn't tell you which one is better in the corners.

You need to educate yourself on F1 supercar tires.

^THIS. This is probably the easiest way to tell a Track Pack apart from a Brembo Package car. Only track pack and Boos cars came with that oil specification. All other coyotes use 5W-20 on the oil cap.

If you have a smart phone, you can enter the VIN here: http://researchmaniacs.com/VIN-Numbe...cker/Ford.html and get a PDF of the original window sticker and know for sure.
