Obviously, you all love the Mustang, but is there anything I should be on the lookout for? Any sneeky things that go wrong around 70K? The usual problems?
Also, what do you recommend for tires (brand, size, etc)? The dealership replaced the tires on this GT with some really cheapo ones, so I plan to re-replace them. I live near Seattle so I will need some rain-traction! The stock wheels are 16", but I might replace those as well, so I could go bigger. What's the best?
Thanks for your input! If anyone wants a dying '94 Explorer 4X4, let me know!

Actually, as long as you're goin 99+, I say you're doing pretty good
....Kumho offers the best prices on tires....But there are better tires out there...Honestly I went with an affordable set of the Kumho Ecsta 711's though...should be all you'll need in a DD..unless you plan to race it alot...
I'd suggest a step up to a nice set of 17" wheels. there are PLENTY different ones out there, since thats the "usual" size on most GT's and All Cobras (I believe)....Its a preference thing, but in my opinion 17's are large enough to fill a fenderwell, and look clean...while not looking "too big"....Not to mention they make tires a lil more affordable than 18's lol...
Best of luck, let us know how it goes!
