Default 18" Wheels and Tires

I found a local dealer that has a GT's in stock and will take x-plan pricing. I have a question about the tire and wheel combo and if you buy the 18" are there suspension mods that are done that you don't get with the standard wheel package?? My plan was to get the standard wheels and add 18 or 20's after but if Ford does some suspension mods maybe it would be worth getting the 18's. I'm so stoked maybe have the new stang in the garage this weekend!!!!

Default RE: 18" Wheels and Tires

AS i understand it, the shocks and struts on my 06 GT with factory 18 inch wheels are upgraded to match the rims and tires. So yours would be too. Don't forget that if you go the other route and buy aftermarket wheels, and they get ripped off, the insurance doesn't cover as well. There is another thread on insurance that explains this. I say go with the Xplan deal, and DRIVE!! Greg A
