Re: 20" vs. 18" -- which is better for 08 Edge? [hardhawk] by the_scholar

I was looking at getting a Ford Edge as a winter car / daily driver since I have family members who work for Ford. I am a big wheels and tires kind of guy and I was wondering if anyone knows what the wheel widths are for the 17", 18" and 20" wheels? Also, what is the speed rating that is on the corresponding tires? I was trying to research this and unfortunately the Ford website only gives diameters of the wheels and the size of the tires with no other information.
 
Thanks,
Dave

Edge Rims on Taurus? by kam327

Will 18" stock Edge rims (the non-chrome 10-spoke) work on a '08 Taurus? I'd love to replace the stock 17's on my new Taurus with the Edge rims which I think are the best looking wheels Ford has ever had and one of the best looking stock rims out there.

My 2008 has the standard Michelin 18", just returned from 800 mile trip thru mountains.
Most stable vehicle I have ever owned.

I haven't seen or heard of any personally but yes, there was a bad batch of Chinese valve stems. Ford uses them as do many aftermarket tire shops.

Here's a blurb about them:
 
"The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has opened a preliminary evaluation of China-made tire valves in more than a million 2007 Ford vehicles, including the Edge, F-150, Fusion, Mustang and Lincoln MKX, after receiving 37 complaints from consumers."

But it's not just Ford - many aftermarket tire shops use them also.

2007 Ford Edge Tire Replacement Question by livinondaedg

I am looking to replace those crappy Hancook stock tires on my 2007 Edge. From what I have found out I can put 235 R 65 in 17" or 18" to be in line with what they recomment. I want to put something like scorpions on there or hopefully something cheaper but with similiar looks without changing wheels right now. Anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks

To resurrect the snow cables / chains issue from above - can someone tell me what snow chain/cable restrictions exist for the 2010 Edge, for the various wheel/tire sizes? Has the clearance issue for larger wheels/tires been corrected?
 
Even with AWD we have chain laws that go into effect in the Sierra, and I will not buy a vehicle that cannot have chains or cables mounted. (I guess another question is - if there are still clearance issues, does Ford offer a solution that would meet chain law requirements?)
