Hey guys i have 2005 Ford Mustang V6 it's got the factory 16" 5 spoke wheels. my neighbor has the same model Mustang but a GT he had the factory 17" bullitt wheels on it and had bought a new set of wheels and is going to sell me the bullitt wheels with tires for only $350 but two of the tires need to be replaced and the other two are brand new. i was just think of just getting a set of 4 tires all around but my Question is what type of tires would be the best for performance and handling. i was thinking of BFGOODRICH g-Force tire.

BFG's are good tires.
Nitto 555's are good too.

dunlop direzza star specs if you actualy want an extremely good handling tire. I hear they can last like 20k miles too. I would have got direzza star specs if they were offered for 19 or 20 inch wheels.

+1 on Nitto's. LOVE my NT555 tires. If I ever buy a summer/high performance tire for looks I will look to nothing else but Nitto. Even with all seasons I'd look at Nittos! :P They have awesome tread and look beefy! NT555 are perfect for Muscle Cars. Here is a couple pics on mine (but I have Roush rims). Performance wise their dry road grip is beyond great, and so handling and acceleration is good. They can be shaky in really wet conditions but still easy to drive with. In icy/snowy conditions they of course are not good because they are high performance summer radials so expect what they are meant for. The prices are also cheaper than most Michelin, BFGoodrich, Good Year, etc.

I say the Nittos to I have 555s on my chrome bulliets and I love them. I dont run them in the winter so I cant attest to that. They are much, much better in the wet than my Nexen 5000 ever were.

I just ordered some sumitomo HTR Z III summer tires from AM. Should be here tomorrow so hopefully ill get them mounted when I go home from school this weekend. From what I read they are pretty good for the price. If money wasnt a problem I would have went with the G-forces but the ratings ive seen werent all that much higher.

I just put the new Nitto Motivo tires on my car and have been very pleased with them for daily driving. They handle great in the rain and dry - had the chance to drive in a small snow storm as well and they were better than the stock Pirelli P-zeros.

Agree that the Nitto 555`s are a good looking tire and wear incredibly well !!
