A friend of mine was one of the GT350 development engineers; when the car was being developed they would keep a front rim fitted with a 275/45R19 tire in the trunk to use as a spare. This combination is the ONLY combination that can be used front and rear on a GT350 (the narrower than stock tire, combined with the offset of a front rim JUST clears the rear suspension), it can therefore be used front and rear in an emergency.

I didn't like the idea of riding around (especially on a long trip) with nothing other than a can of goop and a compressor in case of a flat, so I bought a front rim and appropriate tire for my GT350. But having recently sold my car I no longer need the items.

I posted the following item(s) for sale on my local kijiji but haven't had any bites. Surely there must be somebody in Ontario or Quebec (or just over the border, in NY state for example) who would like to have these items? I could also ship to anywhere in the USA (from NY state) which would help to keep the costs down.

Hi Voodoo16. Sorry that it has taken me so long to answer you, I only just saw your question. I'd like to get $550 for the wheel and tire (that's exactly what I paid).

Bump ... nobody wants a spare wheel and tire for their GT350?

I'd still like to sell this and can't really believe none of you want a spare for your GT350!!

DESCRIPTION
=========

Since there's no "emergency spare" available for the GT350, this is what you need for peace of mind on a long road trip, or even just a short one into the middle of nowhere. This will only fit a GT350, it WILL NOT work on any other model of Mustang.

A friend of mine was one of the GT350 development engineers. When the car was being developed they would keep a front rim fitted with a 275/45R19 tire in the trunk to use as a spare. This combination is the ONLY COMBINATION that can be used front and rear on a GT350 (the narrower than stock tire, combined with the offset of a front rim JUST clears the rear suspension), it can therefore be used front and rear in an emergency.

US$550 was my cost for this rim and tire ... I'm not trying to make a profit here, would just like the space in my garage!!

FOR SALE
==========
1) OEM 19" Shelby GT350 Front Wheel (Factory Stock 10053); and
2) 275/40R-19 DUNLOP SPORT MAXX RT tire
