Im starting to lose my patience with Ford Service, took it in 3 times already for a coolant leak and its there this morning again. They replaced the clamp and the hose on the reservoir tank and its still coming out.
Yep even in dry weather and 50 degrees out on long island my stock Pirellis were slipping all over the place. These are pretty solid on the other hand.
I ordered American Muscle wheels that are 19x8.5 and they fit just fine. Also grabbed a set of 245/45/19 blizzaks

Yeah thats a good point right there, think I ll go with the 8.5 wheels along with 245s. Now just gotta decide between Blizzak LM-32 and Michelin x ice xi3.
The tires aren't wider, 255 is stock on the front on the GT PP. The stock rim is a 9.0. I cant find a cheap 9.0. American Muscle stocks 8.5, 9.5, and 10 for their "cheaper" wheels.
Basically I didn't want to go narrower, and thats what I ll have to do for the 8.5.
Does anybody know if a 255 40 19 tire on a 9.5 inch rim will fit the front of a GTPP. I know stock PP wheels are a 9.0 on the front. Also I'm wondering if a 9.5 will be too much for a 255 winter tire.
