Interchangeable 17s - 18s
I found a set of 17" wheels off a stock 2007 GT for sale cheap locally. Mine is an '08 GT that came with 18". I want the 17s for winter wheels. Is there ANY reason why those wheels wouldn't just bolt right up? I can't imagine there are bigger brakes or anything with just the 18" tire package, but figured it was worth asking.
They have straps and cradles still installed, so I assume that I can just buy TPMS sensors off E-bay and have them popped in when they install the winter tires? Anyone know the exact part number TPMS sensor I need?
Thx

Not sure on the part #
But the swapping is no issues as far as bolting them on. But you would need the sensors programed each swap. I believe there is a ford tool that can do this that can be had for 40 bucks or less.
