Doesn't winter suck.
Do you get a lot of crap on the side of the car from the wheels? Is there a special fitted factory flap for the 4-season people (at least as an option)?

Post pics so I can drool.

My car is scheduled for Jan 25th build. I'm hoping to see the car around valentines day.

Congrats! :woo-hoo: I opted for Blizzak LM-25s for the winter, but I got 225/60R18s. I wanted a tire that was not as wide and a taller profile for the snow and these have an H speed rating. These are the exact same circumference as the the Primacy 245/45R20s. Obviously, you'll need new wheels too and then TPMS sensors for them. I got my TPMS kit from American Muscle for $150. This has genuine Ford parts except for the mounting bands. Also, band mounted and valve mounted sensors are not interchangeable. I got the tires at the Tire Rack and my wheels at Wheels Next. I wish I would have looked at the Tire Rack for wheels, they got ones I would have gotten for about the same price I paid at Wheels Next. I haven't driven on any heavy snow covered roads yet, but I did drive through somewhat deep snow and it was just like a 4 x 4 truck. Bottom line, I got about $1650 into these. It's worth it to me. For the amount of driving I do, the two sets will last me for the life of the vehicle.
