I find every excuse to go into the garage just to see her.

So, I'm looking at this exact tire as it fits the rims and is same diameter. How do you like it so far and what are you seeing in range (hwy/city)?Continental Extreme Contact DW 06 Plus in 245-50/19. They are better then the Michelin Primacy in all aspects. Noise, comfort, grip (X1000), name it. I do not even see a reduction in range.
When we all thought Ford spec the Primacy's to maximize range, now I think it was only a cost control move.

Me too!I find every excuse to go into the garage just to see her.
What did you do with originals?I love the tires so far and see no change in range.
I’m trying to sell privately. After spending over $80K CAD for the car including taxes I’m not going to worry for a few hundred bucks to have tires that allow me to enjoy the car 100%.What did you do with originals?
I wonder if it will be possible to have the dealer to replace the tires for a couple hundred bucks... Not sure if I want to pay more.
Back to tires. So you replaced original 225-55/19 with 245-50/19, and it doesn't cause any problem? I am planning to ask my dealer if they can replace the originals with this ones, but not sure if they object due to different size.Continental Extreme Contact DW 06 Plus in 245-50/19.

No problem whatsoever, only improvements in ride comfort, grip, noise level. No change in range.Back to tires. So you replaced original 225-55/19 with 245-50/19, and it doesn't cause any problem?

Many people have changed tires to wider tires. I cannot in my heart do it now because of the stellar looking rims on the premium. But I would definitely do it if I didn't like the rims. Damn aesthetics!Back to tires. So you replaced original 225-55/19 with 245-50/19, and it doesn't cause any problem?

Wait, can't you put 245-50/19 tires on the original rims?Many people have changed tires to wider tires. I cannot in my heart do it now because of the stellar looking rims on the premium. But I would definitely do it if I didn't like the rims. Damn aesthetics!
I have the same question re: tire size for my RWD premium. I noticed Guy went to 245/50/19 & loves them. They also have a 235/55Z/19. Curious what the performance difference would be between the two & if they're both viable options? Not sure if they're stocked locally, but after spending all night researching this, I think these seem the best option. Did you change yours already? If so, what did you opt for? Don't want to show up at the tire place & be told, "Jane, you ignorant ...." cause I ordered the wrong size.Wait, can't you put 245-50/19 tires on the original rims?
After getting my MME I didn't notice anything wrong with the tires, so I'm still using OEM.I have the same question re: tire size for my RWD premium. I noticed Guy went to 245/50/19 & loves them.
