I am running a Set of all season Tires and wheels I got from Roush. It was cheaper than buying just the Tires for the 19 inch wheels. Look on Ebay for other Mustang tire and wheel packages, there are a few 18 inch sets on there right now.
Just watch getting the 17's, they fit on my car but 2 with Performance Package and Automatics had problems with them not fitting. |
Hi guys thanks I will look into it I'm buying a full set my questions is should get winter tires or all season and also should they be the same size to avoid problems with the brakes. I never had this problem this is my first with this special package. Thanks for your advised.

You haven't really given us any info to help you decide winters vs. all-seasons. Bottom line: if you're going to be daily driving your car in an area that gets temps consistently below 40 degrees AND a fair amount of snow, then you should get dedicated winter tires/wheels. If your area has the lower temps but not the snow, you can get away with all-seasons. But, if you are going to keep the summer tires I'm assuming your car came with, making your second set all-seasons is kind of silly. All-seasons should be for when you only want one set. If you're going to the trouble/expense of having two sets, make one summers and one winters.

Thanks guys, I'm in NY...

Blizzaks will be my answer. And get a good cheap wheel that will fit because the stuff under the snow (pebbles and salt) will eat at the stock wheels if you are in the snow a lot. You can get good matched sets of Blizzaks on ebay for pretty good prices.

I have Hankook Wintercept evo's on mine and so far so good. very quiet and performing well in Calgary's winter weather so far. That being said i don't go out in snow usually, but do get caught in slushy, icy side streets occasionally and have no problems. I run blizzaks on my f150 and love em.

just buy 19" snow tires for stock wheels. Then you have more of a reason in a couple months to buy summer WHEELS AND TIRES :D

I live in Orange County NY and drive all year long except in the snow,i have a Jeep GC for that,but when its really cold out the summer only tires sucked (pirellis),so i just put on(a few weeks ago) Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric A/S and absolutely love them.If they perform in the warm weather the way they do in the frigid and wet then they are the only tires i,ll ever use!!!I got them at the tire rack,they were 1036.00 shipped on a monday and got them on tuesday.255 40 19.s

I think you should get some winter tires for your stock wheels. And new wheels and tires for summer. What size wheels? 18x8.5? Everyone keeps referring to 19's.
