new to the forums and got some GT questions

Hi all - looking at a 2010 GT with Track Pack. Can anyone tell me what the tire mobility kit does? Also - if I go with the 19inch wheels with the summer tires, is is best to have another set of wheels and tires for winter driving (I'm thinking the 18 inch 2009 Bullitt wheels). Thanks - CD

Welcome! I think the tire mobility kit is replacing the spare tire with a tire repair kit which allows you to drive 50 miles or so on a flat tire. They had that in the GT500 for weight savings...

The kit is an air pump, and a can of tire sealant. Not 100% chance to always work like a spare, but does save weight.
I would recommend a spare set of wheels/tires for winter driving thats for sure. Maybe even with some snow tires on there. You dont want the salt pitting those beautiful new 19" wheels!
