Can someone tell me the tire size (F&R) of the GT PP, can't find it on ford.com. Thanks ! Scott

 

I know the front is 255/40/19, same as the Brembo package tire. I believe the rears are 275/35/19.

 

I believe the rears are 275-40R19.

 

Rears are in Fact 275-40 ZR19. At least that is what I have.

 

Yep saw a PP 2015 GT at the Cars and Coffee and rears were indeed 275/40. Funny they used that size since it's almost an inch taller than the front tired hah

 

I'm wanting to order the PP but I don't like the fact that there's only the black wheels. At least that's the info I'm getting on the build your own on the Ford site. Scott

 

Yup....the black is the only wheel available with the GT / PP. At first I did not like the black but I am getting used to them. If I could only find a spare tire for that combination I will order one. If not I guess I'll have to settle for a GT.

 

Yea I know, BUT I think another wheel choice would be really good. Scott

 

I like the black wheels on mine. I suspect there will be a market for barely used factory 19" wheels if you wanted to swap them out.

Also don't forget plastidip.

 

This is incorrect. The front and rear tire height difference is only .4 inches difference, resulting in only .2 inches taller to the vehicle. This is a common set up on other performance cars including the BMW M4, Lexus RC F, Corvette, Shelby GT500, and many others

 

Ah my mistake, I was thinking of the 285/40/19 version.

 

Does anyone have pics of the PP wheels up close ? I just ordered a new Jeep with black wheels & the pattern along with the black is driving me nuts keeping them clean !! I've seen them on the lot in person but just can't remember. Thanks, Scott

 

With a tape measure on my performance pack wheels. Fronts are 27", rears are 28"

 

There was a single Black PP GT at a dealer near me that had what appeared to be Black Chrome Wheels I will get a pic the next time I am by there.

 

Black Chrome interesting

 

Found it, here's one jason29 posted on another thread a while back. Scott

 

They're gloss black. Not black chrome. These are black chrome (and actually quite dark for black chrome)...

 

Are we talking 255/40-19 Front and 275/40-19 Rear? If so the rolling radius is 0.7" different. 27.01" for 255 tire and 27.7"for 275 tire.

275/40-19 is what I went with as my track weekend tire setup an all 4 corners. I was debating between this size, and 285/35-19. Better tire choices in the latter size, but the reason I stuck with 275/40 was due to the extra height. With this setup I pick up 2~3mph in each gear before hitting rev limiter. So it makes each gear a little bit taller, and this is one of my criticisms of 3.73 6MT cars. Gears are a bit too short for some tracks.

I wonder if this is why Ford chose this size instead of 285/35-19 like the Boss was wearing on the rear.

 

Yep and your experience was one of my main reasons for wanting the 275/40s for my next tires. I was looking at 285/40s too, but I know I'd never find one if I had a flat - would be special order only.

 

I looked into that size as well. Not that many options and quite expensive. And based on the fit of my 275/40-19 i think there may be rubbing issues with 285/40-19. When the wheels are turned there is ~1/4" of clearance from the wheel well.

275's are 27.7" tall and 285/40 is 28" tall.
