19" wheels? - 07-22-05, 08:18 AM
Will the Gt500 have 19 or 18" wheels. I love the 19"s in all the pics. If not then will any aftermarket companies make them? I want them for my 05 stang.

The original concept had 19' but the production cars will be on 18" rims

I'm not one for big wheels, but 20's on the 05+ Mustangs almost look perfect.

Not sure about the Cobra, but the 06 GTs will have an 18" wheel option. They are on commodity control though and will be fairly hard to get.

tires & wheels - 08-13-05, 12:17 AM
The tires will be 18". I have seen some that were sent to ford for testing.It's the F1 supercar tire. It's is a great handling tire! It looks just like the tire on the Ford GT but a little smaller.............

The 18's are perfect for looks and a good ride. I like a little rubber on my wheels.
