New shoes installed (2019 Escape 19" wheels)

[klutch14u]

Got these swapped over to my XL this morning. Still need to dress the tires and have to deal with TPMS sensors as the ones that were 'supposedly' installed wouldn't scan. Next up, painted door handles and hopefully mirror caps.

Nice, I'm not a fan of 19" but yours is a real OEM Maverick at least. I don't like all the mods. I just took off the steel winter wheels yesterday and back to XLT. First time jacking Mav up and used the pinch welds. Jack and stand next to each other on the weld. I bought rubber pinch weld protectors for both the jack stands and floor jack. Worked well. 148 ft lbs and I'll check torque again after 500 miles.

Looks great with the escape wheels on. What size tire did you run on the escape wheels?

They're the stock 235/55/19's

Won't your speedometer be off now with the larger circumference?

It's a pretty minimal difference, since he dropped down to 55-aspect ratio tires.

If it was me I’d leave the mirrors and door handles as is. It looks really good with the black wheels. I’ve a cactus grey lariat with painted handles and mirrors with standard black/chrome wheels I think yours looks better. Only thing I’d maybe do to your Mav is two tone it by painting it like ford did the F150. I’d paint it a black up to that first body line.

That driveway pic does not compliment the rake lol. Looks like the rear end is lifted 2" in those pics from that angle.

What a difference. It makes it look like a more expensive trim. It's amazing what a set of wheels can do a car's appearance.

Couple more with painted handles installed.

Looks really good. I am hoping to swap my stock XLT wheels with a black Ford wheel up to 18" (don't want to go bigger) closer to when I am in need of new tires.

Looks good. Me personally, I like 20” wheels because 19” tires are more expensive than 20’s. Wheels definitely make an XL look a lot better. Here are a few pics of mine.

I personally like the black door handles and trim. Mine unfortunately has painted door handles as I opted for the lariat lux package because it was only trim with reverse sensing system. I’m also old school as I prefer the 17” wheels so I can install taller tires for more side wall, softer ride and not have to deal with reset of speedo.
