WARNING:For vehicles equipped with optional performance
package tires (P265/40-19 front, P285/35-20 rear), only replace
wheels and tires with the EXACT original brand, size and construction
tire with which your vehicle was originally equipped. Use of any other
wheel/tire combinations, even with identical size ratings, may result in
insufficient running clearances, tire rubbing and eventual puncture.
Loss of tire pressure could lead to a loss of vehicle control leading to
serious injury or death.
Summer tires
The Shelby GT500 Performance Package is equipped with D.O.T.
approved ultra high performance summer tires with track capability. The
rubber compounds used in these tires lose flexibility and may develop
surface cracks in the tread area at temperatures below 20°F (-7°C).
Always store your tires indoors at temperatures above 20°F (-7°C). If the
tires have been subjected to 20°F (-7°C) or less, warm them in a heated
space to at least 40°F (5°C) for at least 24 hours before installing them
on a vehicle, or moving the vehicle with the tires installed, or checking
tire inflation. Do not place tires near heaters or heating devices used to
warm the room where the tires are stored. Do not apply heat or blow
heated air directly on the tires. Always inspect the tires after storage
periods and before use as outlined in the owner’s guide. Ford does not
recommend using these high performance summer tires when
temperatures drop to approximately 40°F (5°C) or below, or in snow/ice
conditions.
Winter driving
The original equipment tires on your SVT vehicle are designed for
maximum performance in dry and wet summer conditions. They are not
designed for winter use on ice or snow and cannot be used with snow
chains. If you will be operating your vehicle in these conditions, winter
or all-season tires must be used.
•Use winter tires with a “V” speed rating and a 93 load index or higher
for all models. You may also use P255/45R-18 winter tires with a “V”
speed rating and a 93 load index and 18 in. wheels from the
2007-2010 model year Shelby GT500. Using these wheels will ensure
adequate brake and suspension clearance.
