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" Expedition wheels with this tire? Thanks in advance!

I put them on my 2020 Expedition Platinum Max. They look great. They have a tougher look with great traction in the winter too. The Hankooks that came OEM are complete garbage. Had 2 sets and never got more than 30K out of them.

I really don't know, so please just stop asking...
Yea, the difference between Michelins & da Kooks are like nite & day at every level, except for price of course, but then again, "you only get what you pay for" & "cheap is as cheap does"...hahaha :D

FoMoCo should be ashamed for choosing them as an OEM tire :(

And FYI, if you have the clearance, the Michelins will look even better with a 55 or even a 65 sidewall height, in addition to providing a more comfortable ride too :)
