#5 of 6 Replacement tires for Focus... by 0311vn May 26, 2009 (12:30 pm)
I have a 125K on my 01 Focus wagon and have not been satisfied running BF Goodrich Touring T/As. Admittedly, I have only had all for wheels aligned twice since buying this car new. This may have resulted in uneven wear and noticeable tire noise. I am now thinking about going with a pair of Michelin-X Radials, which will go on the rear as required by the retailer, while running the two good remaining Goodrich T/As on the front. I will probably keep the Focus for at least two years as I have maintained it well and it is in good running order. Any feedback on tire replacement experiences good and bad from Focus owners will be appreciated.
#6 of 6 TPMS sensors on snow tires by shanghaikid Oct 01, 2009 (7:51 am)
Im planning to get some studless snow tires for the winter. My 2008 Ford Focus has TPMS sensors installed. If I don't get them on my snow tires, then the light will be all winter correct? The sensors alone range from $25-$35 a piece. I'd figure I'd save a few $$$ and check my tire pressure manually.
