IS this your DD?

Yes sir

So why are you still driving on summer shoes? You need winter boots on those wheels.

Yeah. Just put the winters on the pp wheels for now.

Please put a blanket on that poor girl! She's fuhreeeezing!

Mine got snow the day after I got mine, but did well on summer tires. Snow/rain mode works great.

Tire rack has a wheel/tire package for around $3,600 including the sensors (for the pp). When I saw the price I couldn't believe it. But I guess its better than risk it with the summer tires.

$3600?!?! Just buy the Sport Edition F10 wheels and Goodyear Ultra Grip ICE WRT tires in 18" for $1400 shipped (See my build thread) and skip the TPMS....$3600 thats crazy talk

That's why I'm going with the optional 19's. Awesome looking rims and all seasons on them.

Geez, that was takin a chance getting a DD Stang equipped with PP no? Just take it easy, most importantly, be safe!!! No dollar amount is worth your safety...

If you have summer tires, why would you not get winter tire to have the best of both?

Many AS are worthless in snow and ice, as far as "looking" Mustangs look better when they are not stuck or wrapped around a tree. Please consider changing your order.

I have the ecoboost with PP. I got a set of 18x8 Rage R20 wheels with 225/45 Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice WRT winters for under 1000 after rebate by shopping between tirerack and discounttiredirect. Tires look a little skinny on this car, but works very well.

Dropping over 10lbs per corner was a massive improvement in vehicle feel. Almost wish I didn't lose that much weight because going back to the boat anchors that ford calls wheels in the spring will be annoying.

Honestly yesterday when I drove it the summer tires actually did suprisingly well in the slushy conditions. Obviously they are no winter tires but they did good enough to hold off until I get my winter tires delivered. I didnt want summer tires but unfortunately if u want all the upgrades that come with pp package u have to suck it up with that. I wish ford would let u customize a car wxactly the way u want even the packages
