Hi All,
So very recently I put in my order for my 21MY Mustang Ecoboost HPP. If everything holds true I'll be taking delivery of it sometime in early March 2021. At that time there is still a chance that there will be snow on the ground (Detroit-metro area is where I currently reside and my parents live in the Chicago land area). Tire sizes I'm looking outside the stock 265/40-R19 size includes 255/40-R19 and 255/40-R18 (would be getting new Rims if I go this size).
My questions are of the following tires which do you recommend for all season spirited driving (Think back-road driving or Touge style driving) and why? Which tires are solid choices when dealing with slush and snow? And for new Rims, are there any good 6-spoke designs which will work for the mustang (6 has a special place in my heart so I'd prefer this wheel design over anything else)?
Stock Tire Size: Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+
255 19's: Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate, Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 (Including Tires listed above)
255 18's: Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, BF Goodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S Plus (Including tires listed above)
Some more background as well, I currently work for Ford so I have a discount on tires but I want to have the cheapest route in the long run (which would probably mean sizing down the tires and wheels eventually or just sticking to the 255 19's). This is also my first rear wheel drive performance oriented car, and I live in an apartment complex (ie very little space so two sets of tires and wheels are very out of the question). I'll likely be selling the performance tires on here shortly after I get the car so I'll also give a small heads up on that as well (will probably settle to sell close to the cost of the new tires so if people give me a cheap suggestion I'll probably sell the Pirelli's for cheap as well even if they are worth more at the given tread level).
I look forward from hearing from everyone and sorry for the long post!
