Just got my 22’ GT with 20” tires and wondering if I’ll need winter tires to get around. I have AWD. Any recommendation on whether I’ll need to also get a full set (wheels/tires). Live in Maine.

My first Engineer boss always said maximize your potential. I have run snows on all of my AWD vehicles.

I drove a 18 wheeler for 42 years with a total of 5,000,000 miles driven and only ran traction tires 1 time and hated them so I don’t plan on running any traction tires on our Mach e AWD and live in the northwest

Do you have the GT, or the GTPE? The PE comes with summer tires that you will need to swap out.

If you have the regular GT, we have been very pleased with the factory all seasons on ours in upstate NY. I was ready to swap them if needed, but they performed great in the snow.

Planning on Michelin CrossClimate2 tires.

Wondering if I can safely fit the 255/45/20 size on the GTPE wheel.
