Thanks for the info. Any idea of the price per wheel for those?

They list at $89.95 per, we usually sell them at $76.46 each when getting a set of 4, or less when the customer is purchasing tires for a package as well.

Thanks very much for the info.....I'll be calling the dealer in the morning. You'd think they would be familiar with these issues!

I just popped my snows and rims on Tuesday morning after walking out the door and finding 4 in. of snow and everything under that covered in ice.
But I got an '07 with Pony Package and 16" rims cleared the brakes fine. Maybe it was the style of rim that was different.
Went for a 215/55/16, Toyo Observe G02, seem to work OK so far. I'll see how they do tomorrow after the 10 cm of snow we're supposed to get

Hmm, That's wierd. They were Ford Factory rims that I purchased. Does the 07 Pony package come with 17" wheels? Also are you rims universal fits or Fords?
Thanks for the info.

16" wouldn't clear my brake on my pony package...
i ended up getting a brand new unused set of 235/55R17 on kijiji.. rims.. tires.. balanced and installed.
guy bought the tired brand new.. gave me receipt.. paid $1575 for the tires 'n rims...

his wife made him sell his GT... and i got them for $700... he hadn't even had them for a month..

plus he got them from the place i inquired about and they quoted me roughly $1500 for a set...

The rims I had were universal fit rims, not from Ford. I just told the tire guy what car I had, and he looked up the bolt pattern, I'm assuming. And the Pony Package comes with 17" rims.
