Tires sizes

[Scenicgene]

I have a 2024 XLT Hybrid. I have about 30,000 miles on it and getting ready to buy new tires. What’s the largest size above stock that can be used without modifying the suspension? I think a little taller tire would look better. TIA!

245/65R17 is the best size without a lift needed, no rubbing reported

My 23-xlt-awd came with 245/60R/18. Every post I've noticed here are 17 inch are mine a freak of nature?

I’m only at 10k miles but when my tires do need swapped think I am going with 235/65R17 size (which I think is what is on a Tremor). I figure less of a mpg hit than the 245’s. Might possibly do a small lift of 3/4 or 1 inch. I agree, the OEM tires look a little small.

Before you do any modifications check with Ford, they might X-cell your warranty rather than do a big job under your warranty, I wouldn't put anything a dealer would pull.

If you bought it used, someone swapped out the tires.

If you bought it new, then the dealer did it.

If you bought it used, someone swapped out the tires and wheels.

If you bought it new, then the dealer did it.

I know that the dealer didn't do it, I was at the dealership when they backed it off the truck.

The black appearance package on a 2024 XLT comes with 18" rims and 225/60 R18 Michelin tires.
Mine did

Well, 245 is not an OEM section on any trim level of Maverick, regardless of wheel diameter, so that’s either a typo, or yes, you do have a freak of nature.

My Maverick came with the 19" rims. I wish that it had the smaller ones, but not enough to pay the $$ to change them.

Again, if his XLT was equipped with the BAP option, then it DID have 18" rims. But not 245's.

I hadn’t mentioned “wheels” other than my original post, so I guess I’ll edit that so people don’t keep bringing it up.

Put on my glasses & looked again, my bad it's 225.
