I need to replace the tires of my 06 mustang gt and right now I have 275/40/18 tires on it and am looking to buy 275/40/19 pirelli tires, will this work?

You can put 19" tires on a 18" rim, but it will take a lot of duct tape.

Thats the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard of. You were the kid in daycare trying to slam the square block in the round hole all day werent you.

I have a hard time understanding the total lack of basic common sense with some of the questions posted here. NO - 19" tires will NOT hold air on an 18" wheel!

No. The 18 means your rims are 18 inches diameter. You would have to buy 19 inch wheels to use those tires.
