Hehe OP is old choad , I still dont get how changing tires on your car is not keeping it stock. stock is everything that comes from the factory , so even if you replace the tires that came with the car with the exact same set it would still be going from stock to aftermarket.

That's arguable....kinda like some people feel if a woman only lets you PIIHB she's still pure as the fallen snow....

Tire brand and tread pattern do come into play with collectible cars and car shows but it's not going to matter for a modern generation mustang. OP if you really liked the stock tires well then good luck finding a new set but we are just trying to understand why you want them that badly since there are much better performing (and looking for that matter) tires out there for a similar price.
With regard to your stock GT looking better than ANY cobra (much less a lowered black one with chrome saleens )... you might be the only person I've ever heard with that opinion. That snake is just plain sexy!

The op was referring to the interior as well.. Id still take the Cobra...
Like everyone stated above. there is NO reason to keep the STOCK tires. there are better ones out for performance, and Looks... No one in their right mind is going to fault your car because it doesnt have the ORIGINAL Tires on it... The only cars that have THEIR ORIGINAL tires on them and are worth anything have 1mile on the ODO.... yours is Completely Used...
The stock tires suck, I replaced mine at 9k miles with something that actually sticks. Also, we drive Mustangs. They won't hold their value especially in this type of economy. Everyone apparently knows that but you.
Poisnd was also correct. You asked and then never hung around after. You showed up more than a year later.
If you read my message, I explained that I had been gone for some time with NO computer access. Can't log on if you don't have one you know.

I was simply looking for original tires because I apparently come from an economic and generation that you youngsters aren't familiar with. When I was a boy, we couldn't run out and spend $$$$ every weekend to install a supercharger, new wheels,etc. In that last several years, I've noticed a lot of nice NEW cars that have been modified front to rear. Most of them didn't need it and some I don't like but I believe a fellow is entitled to try to make his own car's appearance meet his personal standards. (If he can AFFORD IT). I was just trying to apply my standards to my car. BTW I did put new tires on my GT after getting quality advice from my grandson. They look great!!
