Finally, after a 3 mo delay (comedy of errors) from my Ford dealer, got the winter tires/wheels on. I was still running on the factory 20" F1 Supercars-WILD on the snow! These are terrific so far, took a road trip this weekend.
225/60/18 Firestone Winterforce Studded tires on Elbrus 104 18x8 +40mm offset from Tire Rack, at this link: http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/MiniWheelSearchServlet?winterIndex=11&partNum=I0418806540BDCI&autoMake=Ford&autoModel=Taurus&autoYear=2010&autoModClar=SHO&sw=1440
No fitment issues at all. Got the whole package for just over $800, and I'm still going to fight with them over a shipping charge. I skipped the TPMS, although it is a bit of a pain to hit the reset every start to see something besides "TPMS Failure" in the info window.
