Yessir, those are the tires. I haven't gotten my car yet (supposed to be built this Saturday!!), but I bought the tires through my Ford dealership and he assured me they will fit. They're actually the brand that his shop guys recommended.

Side note... my total was $1,517 for the complete set, which included shipping, Mounting, Road Force Balancing (significantly more efficient), Nitro-Fill and all taxes. Dealer is also going to store my summer tires for me at no additional cost since I live in a condo and have no room for them.

just curious, what happens if I install winter tires on new rims without new TPM. I assume the car will operate fine but have low tire pressure warning

Congrats! Mine still says "In order Processing".... So I have a while to decide. Are you just switching out your tires for the winter, or are you getting a separate set of rims?

Everything I have seen so far is saying that with the GT PP you aren't going to be able to fit an 18" wheel. I would prefer to have an 18" squared setup for winter, but that doesn't look like a possibility with the 15" Brembos up front. I am surprised that TireRack hasn't had the chance to test fit wheels or at least get measurements yet so they can offer up some winter packages for the S550.

Fortunately I don't take delivery until February so I have time to make a decision.

I will get 19"s then And how do you know when your delivery is? Or is that what you requested?

I wouldn't worry about tires I look for a winter beater. I wish I didn't sell mine but I found a Ford Taurus for 700 can't beat that..
