2011 5.0 winter wheel/tire details and photos.

I’ve been meaning to post up some winter wheel pics but haven’t had the time.

I picked up 19” MRR GT-1 wheels and aftermarket TPS sensors from Warren at Detail King. He’s a great guy to deal with. The tires I picked up locally (Pirelli Ice/Snow). I went with a staggered set up.

The snow performance is great, as expected and ride comfort is also very good. Overall I really like the look and overall am very satisfied.

My X had zero issues with the blizzard that we just encountered. I may add that I live in a very hilly area of Northern New Jersey.

I can tell you that the OEM 336 20’s with run flats are HEAVY! These GT-1’s with non run flat Pirelli’s are so much lighter than OEM than I can definitely feel a difference in steering effort.

Enjoy the pics. By the way, I painted something black in the front of my X, can you find it?

Safe Driving everyone!
