Default Best 16" Tire Replacements

[hr]

I have 36K miles on my 2005 V6 and it is getting to be time to replace tires.

Does anyone have some recommendations for good 16" replacement tires for our Mustangs?

If you're looking for DD tires:

Kumho Solus KH16s are great all-around. I had a set of Falken ZE-512s on my old Daytona-- awesome in everything but snow, tread life was so-so though.

Also, of course, you can upgrade to 17" Bullitts and Pirellis for not much more than a set of new 16" tires mounted and balanced!

I lucked out. I got my 17" Bullitts and Pirellis for $250 total! I was at the Ford dealer for service-- they had the rims and tires sitting in the corner. They sold a new GT, and the owner wanted them to put on aftermarkets, so the stock Bullits and tires just sat. I asked them how much.. end of story.

So... wander back to the service dept at your Ford dealer and ask them if they have anything like that.
