I ordered the same set from them today and they go out tomorrow. Now I'll be able to upgrade my brakes and they will look a lot better than my fan blades with 235's.

When my current set are worn (GT500 rims w/original tires 255/45/18 & 285/40/18), I'm gonna put on 275/40/18s so I can rotate the tires...did you know the GT500 wheels are all the same width?

I just recieved my tires from greenleafprime and that are absoutly new. The only thing that kinds scared my is the rears look too big too fit. I know they do, but wow, what a diffrence. It will be a while till they go on.
A foot of snow between the garage the tires are in and the garage the Mustang is in.

No worries they'll fit, matey! I swear the car handles differently too...the wider tires actually make it feel more planted in the twisties. Note that the GT500s run their tires at 35 psi, but our cars' spec is 32....so if you run 35 you may experience the middle of the tire wearing before the edges.

I am real tempted to get a set ordered, but have been spending way too much on other mods lately! But it seems like these guys just have an endless supply as every auction I see on ebay gets quickly reposted after a sale, so I am not too concerned about them "running out".

They get them I believe when they make the KR's and put 20's on. I think.
Great deal though. Next mod is gt500 brakes.
