Do you think if I placed a factory order for a new 2016 GT, I would have the option of getting it with the 17" wheels vs the 19"?

I am not a big fan of the stiffer ride on vehicles with the 19" or bigger wheels??

Thanks
 
It's going to look silly but I'm sure the dealer would be willing to work something out (after all 17" wheels cost less).
 
You can probably easily find someone to trade with you but I suggest you test drive the 19s first as they are better tires IMO...
 
To answer your question: no, the factory most certainly will not make substitutions.
 
Yes I think a tall suv looks silly with small wheels when smaller cars wear the same sized wheels. But it's a matter of opinion. 20" wheels that I have are only +1 factory. other brands offer 20" wheels oem. 18 and up imo look better on this car imo.
