Hey guys. I am about to pull the trigger on buying the MMD Zevens in gloss black for my Race Red GT.
I want my tire setup to be 265 in the front and 285 in the back. Both on 19's
Should I get the 8.5 in front and the 10 in rear, or get 10 all around?
And I need the TPMS right? Do I also need the transmitter?

Thanks for the help.

I was looking at the same wheels and diameter, but smaller tire sizes (stock PP sizes, 255/275). I was hesitant to get the 8.5" fronts because that is the minimum width for 255 tires, according to the calculator I found on-line. So, 265 might be too wide for 8.5" wheels. I'm not sure if the 10" will fit in front; it says rear fitment only, I believe.

Interested in hearing what you find out...

i'd do 10 all around. i really don't see the advantage of staggering mmd's. One really isn't more concave than the other between the 8.5 and the 10 really.

Just curious, your sig shows that you have a staggered set-up. What exactly is it about the concavity of the MMDs that you recommend against staggering them? It is an aesthetic thing?

From AM's site:

Application. This 19x10 Modern Muscle Design Zeven Wheel fits the rear only of all 2015 Mustangs, including the V6, EcoBoost and GT models.

If I want to put the 265 with 10s up front or even the 10s and 285s in the back, will I rub? Im not lowered and I dont have the PP

they aren't any where near concavity of my setup. so with mmd so yes aesthetic thing. Visually the 10 isn't anymore concave than the 8.5 on the mmd's might as well go 10 all around.

With my wheels the 10.5 is ALOT more concave over the 9" on the front. I just don't see the point in having staggered setup when the wheels won't look that much different between the front and back other than being wider but that's my opinion.

I didnt want to buy another set of tires, so I went with staggered look. Everyone told me 255's on a 10" wheel would be bad, so I'll wait until I get new tires and either get 10's for the front or get different wheels.
