I like the P-Zero Nero that came OEM on my 2010. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ASXL&tab=Specs

They are about the same price as the Firestones.

I can't speak for the firehawk tires, but I don't think the pirelli's are very good in wet weather. I have had slip n slide issues.

Why pay for mounting and balancing when AM will do that for free? Buy the wheels and tires from the same place. Hell, tire rack has the same service. I have purchased wheels and tire combos from both places and both have excellent service.

I'm a big fan of the Matte Black Gt500 wheels! These are definitely one of my personal Favorite Rims. I see you're interested in just the Rims from us, let me know if I can hook you up with a Wheel & Tire Combo!

Let me know if you have any questions! Our Mustang Experts are here Monday-Friday from 9AM-9PM EST and Saturdays from 9AM-5:30PM EST. If you want to hit them up, their number is 866.727.1266. I can also have one of them call you directly.
