The 2001 Ford Mustang base model comes with 16-inch wheels according to the manufacturer. The tire size is specified as 205/55r16 with 32 PSI recommended. Upgraded models like the GT and Boss will feature 17-inch rims and 245/45zr17 tires. Maintaining the correct tire pressure is crucial for maximizing tire longevity, fuel efficiency, and traction. The car is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system to warn you of low pressure. Tires can last around 50,000 miles, but this depends on your driving conditions and speed. Replacement tires can cost anywhere from $50 to $150 each, varying based on brand and quality.
