I am considering a custom tire and wheel package for my 13 Boss 302 Mustang. Leaning toward a plus one size for both front and rear-265/40/19 and 295/35/19 respectively. My question is regarding rim width-19x9 or 9.5 front and 19x10 or 11 rear-and how tire performance will or will not be subject to change from one rim width when compared to the other. For what it's worth my car will only see a couple high performance driving events a year. I am just a novice driver and will not be doing anything competitive. I have studied the numbers provided by Tire Rack and understand the industry standard regarding rim width when setting these numbers and how section width changes with rim width. I would however like to know how much, if any, other factors may vary when given the rim width selections I have mentioned. Specifically, I'd like to know how overall tire diameter might be affected. I am thinking little if any. It would be appropriate to mention I have installed the Boss specific springs that Steeda sells. And lastly, many have been burned by an unexpected fit or appearance with aftermarket rims and tires. I would most appreciate any input, advice or any other thoughts on the wheel and tire package I am looking at. Thanks.
