Shoe shopping - is Forged worth it?

[24CTDH]

Exceptional! Thank you for posting!

Im leaning heavily towards those. They look great and the price to weight ratio really cant be beat. Im finding lots of fancy options all over the internet.......but i just cant justify paying what theyre asking.

How do you feel about the tire sizes they came with? Wish they were different in anyway?

I'm okay with the tire Nitto NT05 tire sizes that came with the package. I posted the sizes in this thread - Here they are again.

Front 275/35/19 Nitto NT05, Rear 305/35/19 Nitto NT05

One thing to keep in mind is the Nitto NT05's are wider than most in the same size.

Edit add - I Forgot you have a Dark Horse - If i were you I would opt for this package - https://lmr.com/item/WTK-444912FJ/sve-mustang-dhp1-forged-wheel-michelin-kit-2024-dark-horse


Another edit on the recommendation above (LMR link) - Assuming you have the HP which by your spoiler looks like you do.

just by looking at your pics the tire size and spacing you selected looks great, and seem to be a real popular size choice.

Ive read some other people running 285/35 in front or 315/30 for the rears, as alternative sizes. Anyone have an opinion on those sizes?

Oh no i cheated. Its just a premium base. I found an oem handling pack spoiler on ebay to swap in. I got sick of having the same spoiler as my wifes 21 gt pp lol

Here are some comparisons. The 275/35 and 315/30 are smaller in diameter than typical stock sizes. I think 285/35 and 305/35 would be the best combination for looks and speedometer calibration.

Here are a few photos of the SVE DHP1 and misc. views. I forgot to take a close up. Sorry pics coming in a few minutes.....

Do you have the 10" or 10.5" front wheels?

MidwayJ - that is a great calculator. i found some toyota site that shows a visual as well thats fun to play around with.

2d pictures only go so far though - i really appreciate everyones pictures and input on tire sizes. Id like to make the best decision the first time - tires for these new mustangs are quite a bit more expensive than the ones i put on my 66 lol

10" on the front, 11" on the rear.

Based on the non HP I would stay with 10" front, 11" rear. It may be worth searching and asking around if 10.5" will work on the front of a non HP DH.


Edit - Added a brighter side view that show the SVE DHP1 wheels a little better. Grabber Blue is very hard to capture and show the true color in a photo.

The black wheels look great with the black stripes.

Are these particular tires or generalized?

I ask because even within the same manufacturer a different tire of the same size, say, 315/30zr19, can be greatly different tread width and diameter.

It's generalized. They would need a huge database to accommodate every tire. Yes sizes vary by manufacturer, but it's still a useful tool to compare how the specs change between different sizes of the same tire. In any case I've noticed width differences between brands but haven't found the sidewall or diameter to be "greatly different" between the various 285/35r19 tires I've used.

Full forged wheels are definitely worth it if you don’t mind spending a bit more they’re top tier in strength and performance. That said, most people go with rotary forged as the next best option since it offers a great balance of quality and price.
