    Michelin Defender LTX M/S 285/45R22 Pictures Request

    I've been shopping tires for our 2017 Expedition EL Platinum 4WD for weeks now. The Michelin Defender LTX M/S (285/45R22) have been recommended all over the forums (and by my local dealer), but I've struggled to find pictures of them on 22" wheels. Can anyone share side pics of their 22"...

    Rear end vibrating while moving slow - idle speeds

    I've taken my 2017 Expy in to the dealership and they tell me it's my tires, but I want a second opinion. I feel a vibration from the rear only when I let off the brake and start to move at idle speed, as I start to accelerate about 5 or so MPH I no longer feel it. Same thing as I slow to a...

    To go with 18” or 20” wheels on 23 Limited Max

    We already have 30k miles on our 23 limited max and are looking at new wheels and tires. Not impressed with the ride quality of 22s and the generals are not holding balance. We do NOT have the CCD and given where we live 22” wheels are not ideal so looking to downsize to either 18” or 20”. I’m...

    Hey there! I'm new to the forum, but I've been reading for a few months while we waited for our ordered XLT Max to arrive. I'd like to thank y'all for the insight and participation. I don't think I've had a question I haven't found answered after a couple searches. Here's our new ride! With...

    What size tires should I get?

    Getting new tires for my new to me 2010 limited EL. Walmart is giving me a choice between 18 inch and 20 inch tires. In the past with other vehicles I’ve had retailers offer a tire size too big and wound up with wheel well contact when turning. Is the 20 inch really going to be ok? Or...

    Tire recommendations for 22" w/ CCD?

    I have about 53k miles on our 2018 Platinum OE Hankook tires and will be looking to replace them soon-ish. I haven't been impressed with their performance, particularly in wet or slick conditions. In the past I've been pleased with Michelins (on other vehicles), so I'm primarily leaning towards...

    New expedition new tires

    Hey all, my first thread here. Week old owner of 23 KR Max. So far I love it! I decided to replace the General Grabber tires with the pirelli scorpion all season 3 plus tires. I did this because what I’m looking for is the most comfortable (low sound, easy on bumps) ride possible. After...

    Can bad suspension ruin tires that look like new?

    I purchased a 2003 Expedition in Arizona that's beautiful inside and out but has high miles. The suspension was worn out, badly. Lots of play in the ball joints and split CV boots. The owner said he had about 10,000 MI on the like new tires. Howls loudly. So I sunk over a grand into it and...

    2010 EB 4x4

    Here's my new to me 2010 EB 4x4. Previous owner put on 33" Milestar Patagonia A/T R tires on 20" f150 take offs. Things I'm planning for it are: I have a Rancho level lift to install.

    Word to the wise - 34.5"s Don't Fit!

    TL/DR: 2019 Expy FX4, RL 3/2, 34.6" tires rub in the rear. Help! STORY: I just got the ReadyLift 3/2 kit installed and had it realigned to the custom specs laid out in the RL instruction manual. I did as much research on this site as I could about what tire size would fit, and used Readylift's...

    About to buy a 21 Expedition, but…rim size?

    I’m looking for the best ride here…do I stay with the stock 18inch rims or do I get the 20inch rims? Is there a ride difference? Is it noticeable? Any info is appreciated.

    Not just new to Expedition, this is my first Ford.

    Just picked up an overpriced (hahah) 2018 CPO Limited for the expanding family. I loved my RT Durango, but it did not hold car seats for jack squat. Now, show me those chrome delete and wheel/tire posts.

    Recomendations for Wheels & Tires for 33's?

    I'm considering the ICON stage 1 or 2 system. Max tire size is 33" with no cutting or bending. Are there any recommendations for the best wheel and 33" tire size combination? The goal is to improve over-landing performance for up to medium difficulty trails. (no rock crawling planned)...

    Wheels/Tires

    Hello Everyone, I have a 2018 XLT and I am looking to upgrade my wheels and tires. Currently considering the platinum replicas. Wheel wise, I know for sure I want something machined/milled to get the "two-toned" look to compliment my chrome accents. Tire wise, I prefer the truck tire look, but...

    New Tires - 2018 Platinum

    Two questions... It looks like my driver's side rear tire picked up a nail in the tread about 1-1.5" from the inside sidewall. The dealership says it's too close to the sidewall to be repaired. I have a plug kit, how dangerous do you think it would be to repair this myself and keep it...

    LT Tires and Towing

    I haven't seen this mentioned on any threads in the last few years, so I thought I'd share my experiences towing with 2 different type of tires. 2018 XLT came with the Michelin Primacy tires. Towing my 2016 Cougar 21RBS I have to be very careful to keep the tongue weight and cargo in check to...
