we all knew standard tires are a joke on cars. we all knew standard equipped stangs are going to be slower than m6 SS's. (those who use reason)
the ford boys who thought they could option the hell out of the car and ignore physics are going to be upset. they will change tires and gears. those who thought the stang had more power, or was just plain faster from amagazine will be shocked. IMO. they have to be optioned to kill stock SS's easily.

The car had 3.73 gears. It didnt have the summer tires. Thats about the only down side.
When motor trend weighed a full option gt premium MINUS the glass roof it was 362x. A base no option car is 3603. The glass roof adds 20 lbs.
The weight is a wash depending on options. You are looking at plus or minus 40 lbs.
But yes the tires will make a difference.
