    bnight has the magic formula we have all found --- square means quite a bit better life with a normal rotation procedure. With a Mustang those tiny tires up front just are not up to the dive under braking going into a tight turn.......can you say...

    Yipes! But the "cut" is on the inside of the tire. Damage to the fender well liner looks to be to the middle-ish/outside-ish. No damage to oil cooler!

    The front and rears are staggered right ? This is why I run square tires when my fronts start looking like yours I just move them to the back !

    Too bad the Goodyear Supercar 3R does not come in a 295/30 R 19, because I would just keep the staggered OEM wheels and run those up front and 305 in the rear. (see full post)

    the rears on a Dark Horse handling packs are 11" but also the tire is 315 isn't it ? Otherwise that tire would have served very well as a rear tire was my point.

    Yes, he was running 305 on the front and 315 on the rear, the tires Ford puts on the Dark Horse with handling package. 10.5" and 11" wheels.The Trofeo RS 315/30R19 could fit up front with an 11" wheel. It has a very narrow tread width compared... (see full post)

    I don’t think any of the 200tw are really in the same league as the PS4 or conti EC in the wet. In the real world, at 80 mph on the highway in the rain, those are my top picks. (see full post)

    He has the Dark Horse, with 10.5" wheels up front and 305 Trofeos. So, while it is staggered, it is not like the GT performance pack staggered, and the front wheel and tire is nothing like the regular GT tire size. The rear on his Dark Horse is... (see full post)
