FX4 Tires: A/T or All Season?

[shane_th_ee]

So my FX4 order sheet shows "275/65R18 AT OWL TIRES", but all the FX4 photos I can find seem to show Michelin Primacy XC tires. Which is what Tire Rack shows as the OEM installed tire for a 2018 Expedition Max. But it lists them as all season tires... What gives?

Maybe yours will be different than the pictures you have found. Or there was a typo

I'm hoping I end up with better tires. And I'm sure they'll blame it on a typo, but the specs on the website and the brochure all state "275/65R18 AT" or "275/65R18 All Terrain" tires...

You spent $60,000 plus on a new truck, what’s $2,000 extra to buy some nittos or bfgs?

Well, I paid $1400 for a package that's supposed to include A/T tires. My $60k+ is also supposed to include, among other things, 18" aluminum rims, leather seats and air conditioning. Just because I could afford go out and have aftermarket rims, leather and air conditioning installed, doesn't mean I wouldn't be pissed when the thing shows up at the dealer with a cloth interior, no air con and rolling on 14" steelies...

Tht would be one of a kind! Might look better than a normal 4th gen too

I just got my FX4. It does come with the Michelin Primacy XC. (see photo). But according to the Michelin web site (https://www.michelinman.com/tire/michelin/primacy-xc) these are off road rated tires (9/10 for off road capability). But they are also decent on the road with reasonable noise levels and wear. My experience with them on the road is they are reasonably quiet. (I did not try off road yet).

Are those P-metric or LT? Should be at least C-rated LT for off road use on a heavy vehicle, but I just learned that the F150 FX4 comes stock with P tires...

Good question. I am not sure where that is on the tire. It does say "116T" Does that mean it is rated for 116 MPH with a T rating?

116 is the load rating, 2756 lbs.

T is the speed rating, 118 mph.
