Question New to Mustang and Forum

Hello everybody~ Just got my brand new 2012 Mustang GT and found myself in love with it. Everything works well so far and I just have a liiiittle concern

I was wondering whether change my tire rim to a different size is possible. I see soooo many cool tire rims in 19" or even 20". Right now I have the one came from factory which is 18".

THX!

Welcome......Wow, there have been a BUNCH of folks on here in the past couple weeks getting new cars. As far as wheels, I've got 20's, been happy with them, but wish i'd went with 19's because the ride wouldn't have been as harsh. But going from factory 235/18 to a 255/20 did tightened up the cornering a bit.

Thanks!! Btw do you still add air to the factory recommended pressure after you change the tire size?
