No shit!
Eh, that's not very good. If it can outlap a boss ls on those tires then Jesus it'll be a beast on good tires.
I plan to throw bfg rivals/dr's and 19/20" tsw nurburgrings on mine the first week.
I'll probably order it with the all season tire combo unless it negates suspension/track pack stuff to do so.
I want brembos and the better stock suspension, but I'll probably end up replacing the suspension with maximum motorsports or something similar.

Fail again Ford...
Something wrong with an AMERICAN tire? Eagles are as good or better than anything out there!

cripes
The Goodyear speecar tires are ok ... However there are far more better tires. I would prefer it had Michelin pilots sports on it but to be honest Goodyear probably have them a hell of a deal
Nothing wrong with American tires, just crappy American tires.
Ha I built this tire last night at work. Not gonna go into how crappy they are though. And yes goodyear did get a nice contract with them and the one on the GT500.
Crap, goodyear sucks, so I'll be upgrading to better tires immediately.
This I agree with, but they aren't as good as MPSS and thats what the 500 should have come with.
The good years that came stock on my 03 cobra weren't any better. Those things were hard as a rock and were junk.
Do you like the pirelli's better than perelli's?
Mustang6g is reporting Goodyear on EcoBoost and V6, and Pirelli on GT. Also pics of the G.T.350 that are going around show 295/19 Pirelli tires.
I must say the Goodyear Tire sure does look good. It looks like a slick with just enough grooves to be street legal. In what aspect are the Pile and MPSS better ? Are the others better for drag racing or handling ?
I can only speak for Michelin, but they have far better tire technology (materials & processes) than GY. There is a reason why they tend to dominate endurance/road racing.
Not for the Truck world IMO.
Michelins tend to have softer sidewalls and that means a better ride quality. I ran Michelin 275/65/20 (stock superduty size) LTX AT2's on my diesel truck. 30K miles and 2.5 years and I loved them. Great ride, great wear, no real issues....until I took them off-road for the first time. Very easy off road trail (did not need 4x4) and when I came back I noticed a knot in the sidewall of one of the tires. The layers in the tire had separated causing a bubble in the sidewall. The sidewalls were also showing some cracking from weather. I kept 70-80psi in them at all times.
Given the tires had over 1/2 tread depth left, but were now considered dangerous I switched to Goodyear Wrangler AT/S in the same size and never looked back. Ride was a little stiffer, but it's a truck. In the dry and in the wet no significant difference in driving characteristics or traction/braking.
Of course that has nothing to do with their Performance Car Tires. I'm sure the MPSS are excellent tires, but Ford is a US brand, they should run US tires IMO.
USA > France
