Does anyone have any experience with either of these tires? I’m looking at getting them from AM in 255/40/19. The MTs $239.99 are cheaper but are the Nittos $274.99 worth the extra $140 a set?

Same here. Whatre you going with for the rear

 

[2013fiveO]

Well I was gona go 255/40-19 but after some reading it looks like 285/35-19s will fit all around. I may go that route.

Ya im trying to dexide what I shld do on my 19x8.5 and 19x10 amrs im thinkin 255/40 and 285/35

285's will work fine all the way around. What size wheel? I saw 19" but what's the width?

I just did a little research on the MT tires, they're owned by cooper and very similar to the cooper rs3-s, and those are excellent tires. The people that have then love them. Save yourself some money and give the mts a try, unless you need an all season tire. Then the invos are the way to go

I have the Brembo package. The ford spec sheet says they are 19x9 but I've read a few threads saying they are 19x9.5. ?

Nah, they're 19x9's. 285's on those wheels will be fine all around, with the proper offset you get even run 19x10's all around

I would not go any wider than 285 though

Thanks for the info.

Staggered wheels and tires will cause a "push" in the corners. But you would be fine with any decent all season. 255/40 and 285/35 19 should be pretty good. If you're wanting something super aggressive the maybe go 295 or even 305 on the rear. As far as tires are you looking for traction, quiet, tread life, cheap?

Yea but the push can be easily control with the right pedal and that is FUN!!!

I just order 245/45 and 275/40 bfg gforce 2. Decided I'd rather have a little more sidewall

That's not a bad size either, I have the bfg kdw2s and they're pretty good

I have the Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial II - 305/35-19 on 10" rims and love them...its nice that there is no wheel spin anymore, you have to really want to light these up to get them to spin...!
