What size tires are on the Ford GT?

The Ford GT’s current street-legal production models use 20-inch wheels with 245/35ZR20 front tires and 315/30ZR20 rear tires, typically paired with Michelin high-performance tires. This setup is common on modern GTs, though older generations (such as the 2005–2006 Ford GT) used different wheel/tire configurations.


Standard street-legal tire sizes


The following sizes reflect the typical configuration for contemporary Ford GTs on public roads. They are designed to balance grip, stability, and performance for a mid‑engine hypercar.



  • Front tires: 245/35ZR20

  • Rear tires: 315/30ZR20


These dimensions are representative of the common production setup and are often paired with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Variations can occur by model year, trim package, or aftermarket changes, so always verify against the exact build sheet or tire placard on your vehicle.


Notes on variations and care


Because tire choices can differ between model years, special editions, and track-focused variants, there isn't a single universal size for every Ford GT. If you are purchasing a used GT or outfitting one for a specific use (street vs. track), confirm the exact tire sizes for that chassis and confirm tire compatibility with the wheels and suspension setup.


Summary


In modern Ford GTs, the standard tire sizes are 245/35ZR20 for the front and 315/30ZR20 for the rear on 20-inch wheels, with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires being a common pairing. Always check the vehicle’s official markings or build documentation for the precise specification, especially if you’re dealing with a special edition or aftermarket changes.
