Recommendation for some Beach tires
They worked great! In fact, the day you sent this message I was actually driving on the beach with them. They performed fine for me, even with my stock ride height. I'm really happy with them and my raptor wheels.. I felt a lot more confident airing these down rather than the 22s. I still...- toronado13

Recommendation for some Beach tires
Ok, so I ended up getting some Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws. I don't know how they will be on the sand yet, but I will report back! Also, for anyone else wondering in the future, I put 2010ish 17" raptor wheels on my expedition and wrapped them in 285/70/17 Wildpeaks. Stock suspension and no rub at all!- toronado13

Recommendation for some Beach tires
Just out and back... just really to hang out and fish... no dune carving for me. I've been out with my Explorer in years past... and I had some Falken Wildpeak AT3W -- and they were fine... but I did get stuck once, so I was just curious if there was something better out there since I'm in the...- toronado13

Recommendation for some Beach tires
I have a 2017 Expy with 22inch rims (285/45r22), which are not conducive to airing down to drive on the beach in the OBX. I just picked up a set of raptor rims (2012/13 style) and I am thinking about getting some 285/70R17 rubber for them. I have stock suspension and I wasn't planning on...- toronado13

2017 Water Leaks
I just posted in another old thread... wish I would have found this one first! I have a leak inside the rear passenger seat belt. I assume it's b/c of a clog in the drain in my sunroof after reading this and other threads... I've tried to run some trimmer line through the drains, but I don't...- toronado13

Driver's Seat Belt Is Wet
I'm sorry to be posting on a thread from 2015... but I'm really struggling with this right now. I have a leak inside the rear passenger seat belt. I assume it's b/c of a clog in the drain in my sunroof? I've tried to run some trimmer line through the drains, but I don't think I can get to the...- toronado13

2017 wheel compatability
That's what I'm afraid of... I think maybe I just need to pull my wheels and see what I'd be dealing with before I pull the trigger and pickup some wheels...- toronado13

2017 wheel compatability
Is the center cap removeable? That sounds a bit easier. What model year expedition wheels are a direct fit? anything from the 07-17 gen?- toronado13

2017 wheel compatability
I'm looking to buy another set of wheels and tires for my Expedition. It came with stock 22" wheels with the low profile tires, and while I like the way it looks, I want to get another set of wheels, maybe 18" so I can have some more sidewall for airing down and driving on the beach. Is there...- toronado13

285/45r22 on sand
So I recently traded in my 07 Explorer on a 17 Expedition. I've been taking my Explorer to the Outer Banks for the past few years and driving on the beach no problem. My Expedition came with some 285/45r22's and I'm having some reservations about driving these lower profile tires on the sand...- toronado13

2017 Limited 4x4
Just picked up my 2017 Expedition Limited 4x4. Moving on up from a 2007 Ford Explorer. Needed more room for all the junk I need to travel with 2 kids and a dog. Looking forward to learning the typical mods for these beasts. I hope to wear these tires down quick and have an excuse to buy some...- toronado13
