Default 19" Wheel Width & Tire Size

Just wondering if anyone would happen to know the wheel width and size of tires used on the optional 19" wheels.

The 18's are 8" wide and use P235/50ZR18 tires.

Emailed Ford and asked. The only info they provided was that the tire was 245 wide, so I'm going to assume these are 19"x8" wheels with 245/45/19 tires. Guess I'm the only one that cares lol

no i like the 19'' too, i want to know if they fit our stangs, and those are the black bullitts u were askin about right?

*OH, if they said the tires are 245 wide the wheel is most likely 9'' wide*

245 divided by 25 = 9.8in wide tire. There are 25mm in 1in.

No, I don't think the '10 has 19" Bullitts. I'm pretty sure there's only 2 options; one's a 5 spoke, the other is this one:


I lightened the image up to read the detail on the tire. 245/45/19

I'm not so sure that would be a 9" wide wheel. I've been looking at wheels and tires for a couple months because I'm going to buy some, and I've been look at 19"s. Just about everywhere I've looked recommends a 245/45 tire for a 19"x8" wheel. That being said, I know that Ford's chrome 18" Bullitts available on the '09's, '08's, ect., were an 18"x8.5".

Not to be an @$$hole but, there are exactly 25.4mm per 1.00in.

for the record I like the 19's too. I am more interested to know which tires are going to be on the different wheel pacakges.

I hope the offset is the same as the 05-09 because the 19" aftermarket selection is weak. Maybe someone will make a 19" bullitt rim and I will be very happy and feel good about waiting so long for new wheels.
