Wider Tires

Does Discount Tires make the change as "Alex on Autos" explains here at the end of the video?


As the regular Mach-E comes with skinny tires, apparently there is a bit work involved with spacers and pressure sensors? ... my entire knowledge about the process is from that video above.....

Pressure sensors are easy. Hubcentric rings are easy. Discount tire can do those for you.
Spacers… you might have to do on your own after mounting the tires and checking clearances from the suspension parts.

Just be ready to give up range….

Yes. Tire Rack can set you up as well. No adaptors/spacers required if you choose correct offset/width wheels.

We went with 20x8.5” OZ Racing Gran Turismos with 255/45-20 Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 UHP all seasons on my wife’s 4X. Most people will use 245/45s instead since that’s the OEM Ford MME GT size and a bit cheaper.

So far, range is just about exactly as it was previously with the OEM 225/55-19 Continental PremiumContact 6 summer tires we optioned when ordering. 2.5 -3.5 mi/kWh depending on outside temps/driving mix. Lifetime is still 3.1 which just exceeds Ford’s spec. Of 270 miles.

Thank you for reaching out @JohnS1111 - short answer is, yes!

As Brian mentioned, wheels with the correct specifics will not require spacers and although we do not sell wheel spacers at this time, we will service vehicles running them as long as long as certain criteria is met. It's important to note that all the aftermarket wheels we offer for the Mach E are guaranteed to fit without spacers.

Regarding TPMS, in most instances the factory sensors can be swapped over to new wheels. We also offer new sensors in the event that's not possible, but again, factory sensors typically fit the majority of wheels on the road.

We'd like to further address any concerns you may have - PM coming your way!
