Mach-E Aftermarket wheel and tire information and pictures

It doesn't look like this is doing what I'm asking either.

What I want to know, is if I take my 245/45R20 off a 20x8 rim and put that same 245/45R20 on a 20x9 rim, what is the circumference change (I incorrectly said diameter...but kinda the same results).

That tire is going to stretch quite a bit, so how much smaller will that diameter be on that size rim.

Changing the wheel width will affect the amount of tire bulge in the sidewall, so the diameter will increase VERY slightly. But not by much. What's your concern? I'm going with 275/40R20's, as opposed to my original 245/45R20's. Changing from 9.5" width rims to 10" rims reduces my sidewall bulge by 4 mm per side, but the change to the circumference will be very small.

Using the wheel-size site, your circumference shows zero change.

Wheel-size should provide exactly what you are trying to evaluate. https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/?wh...-20X8.5ET40&fcl=50mm&scl=50mm&wcl=30mm&sr=0mm

Yes that's it! Thanks.

Ya I wasn't sure if it would flatten the tire too much to make a difference. I doubt it, but wanted to check.

By flattening the sidewall due to a wider wheel, thus reducing the sidewall bulge, you'll get a slightly stiffer ride.

Long time lurker. Finally made the move to update the wheels.

Variant Xenon Satin Black 20 x 9 +38. 255/45r20 Continental Extreme Contact. Pleased with the outcome so far.

Looks awesome. I did a very similar wheel. Love the all black look. Mine are currently getting ceramic coated at the moment. Your car looks great. I have a AWD select. I like the matte black accents on the car. I got the Aosk mudflaps. I must say they look great and match the matte black plastic perfectly. Really helps with crap kicking up. Noticed this car kicks up a lot of stuff when the roads are a little wet. Not that we have actual weather to deal with. Love your car. Sorta wish I got black. Black always looks so sharp.

It's funny as the black was one of my last picks, but it's grown on me. Needed to spend on a company vehicle and these were getting scarce in LA in October.

First trip logged on the new rubber in today's commute. Route is down from the coast in to East LA. Residential, busy city roads, and freeway driving all mixed in. Top speeds at 80mph through much of it. Same route taken both to and from.

Range and energy consumption did better than expected given the new wheels/tires.

What TPS units have you guys bought?

What TPS units have you guys bought?

These are the ones I bought for my Focus RS, GT500 and Mach-E wheels.

These are all metal, very short stems. My wheels are always gloss black and they match perfectly. Also the shorter they are, the less noticeable. These are more expensive than the longer, plastic/rubber types.

The summer rubber and of course the lack of aero covers.


My GTPE is DMG. I'm still shopping for wheels. Considering the Savini BM14 but really have trouble deciding between gloss black and double dark tint (or TSW Neptune in semi gloss black - although those bronze look very nice!). I haven't seen a pic with a DMG and double dark tint yet.

The BM14's are the exact wheels I bought to go with my Star White Metallic. I went with double dark tint, but could see how that might be too much of the same color on a DMG. I really like the simple look of the BM14s though, super excited to get them fit on. I live in the same city as the Tire Rack HQ, but even they have no idea when I am going to be getting them, or my 255 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.... Must. Be. Patient.

How do you know what TPMS sensor work? I-m hoping to get a set from Amazon so I can have them on or before Friday, but I dont know how to shop for them since the Mch-e is not specifically mentioned.

As long as they are 315 MHz sensors, they should work. I did not even have to program the ones I got. All my cars automatically recognized them and have been working fine. Even if you do have to program them, it is easy to do.

According to your Ebay site, these stems are NOT compatible with the Mach-E. Did they work? I've got a GTPE...what model is your's?

He has a GT...I'm not sure if its a PE. I doubt there are different TPMS sensors amoung trims of Mach-E.

The description says they must be programmed or will otherwise the light remain on. Did you have them programmed?
