  1. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    245/60/18 go on this coming Wednesday. Couldn’t find anyone locally cheaper than the dealership to do it so have an appointment booked along with my first oil change (prepaid maintenance package for 6 years). Staying in a 60 series allowed me more choices so went with Michelin Primacy Tour...
  2. Ambient Lighting install / enabling - DIY project

    I’m curious about this as well. I have a 2025 OBX and as far I know I don’t have ambient lighting like my ā€˜14 Escape Titanium had which was also multi color.
  3. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Nice, Garth. I couldn’t cancel my 55’s in time because of Easter holidays so they got shipped. Came yesterday. I’m in the middle of doing a return which could cost me up to $25 a tire. I’ll take my cans and bottles in which should cover that LOL, so I’m not bothered by it, I’d rather have the...
  4. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    A couple of pics other forum members have posted of 245/60/18 on the OBX wheels. I’m digging’ the look…
  5. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Thanks man. I think my decision is made and I’m trying to cancel my order on the 55’s before they ship, difficult during Easter holidays. I sent them an email. I wonder if I can put a stop payment on my PayPal, it hasn’t processed and charged me yet. if I knew someone with a laptop and forscan...
  6. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Yeah I don’t know, man. I’m not a mechanical engineer or mechanic so I don’t want to just make assumptions. I don’t want to do something stupid that I’ll regret down the road. This is the first brand new vehicle I’ve ever bought and plan on taking care of it cuz I’ll be on a pretty tight budget...
  7. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    So, after everything I wrote about my reasons and concerns staying in a 60 profile going to the wider 245 instead of going to a 55 to keep the exact same overall diameter, I’m finding myself drawn to the look of the 245/60/18 in the forum photos I saved and how they fill the wheel well a bit...
  8. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Yeah the calculator I came across I think said 3.3% or something like that. Enough to throw it off 4 or 5 km/h on the highway I take to work in the summer. Even more on the one I use to go get my gas which has a 110 limit that most people do 120 on.
  9. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    I guess what I’m saying is I’m not so much after ā€œbiggerā€ tires as just wider ones (for aesthetics which I’ll admit I OCD about). The roads in my city are absolute crap, especially right now in the spring. I’ve already noticed that the OBX’s 18’s in the 60 profile do much better here than the...
  10. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Yeah I’m not interested in 17’s in the slightest. The OBX factory rims were a big part of my decision to buy the BS OBX. I was even a bit disappointed they weren’t 19’s like my Escape lol. I didn’t even really like the BS until I saw an OBX at work in white with those rims. … OBX trim package...
  11. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Nice. I’ll check it out. Someone posted a link to a different one that showed how far off the speedo could get as speed increases and it’s not a subtle difference at highway speeds even only between a 55 and 60 in a 245
  12. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Howdy. Thanks for replying. Yes it will be the same overall diameter which I decided on for other reasons. Visually I wanted to see how much further they will stick out to the side of the vehicle and how much further the tire itself will stick out from the rim. I found a thread after I created...
  13. 245’s on OBX stock 18” rims - need photos

    Hi gang. New here. As the title says, I’m hoping someone here has 245’s on the factory 18ā€ Outer Banks wheels in either a 60 (or even better, 55) series and can either post or email me pics of that particular setup viewed from particular angles. I found this forum Googling that exact thing and...
