Tires Firestone or OEM FORD
There's some evidence that EVs are harder on tires because they're heavier and accelerate better, but at 10k on my very, very heavy Lightning I'm not seeing that, probably because I drive like a grandma.
I'll add my first two years of ownership review. The past two years the Maverick has hauled everything I've needed without issues.
I just replaced mine with the same that it came with. Decent tires got 55k out of them.
They have low rolling resistance according to Discount Tires tests, are light, and still grip well off road
I have Firestone Weathergrip all-weather tires in my escape and they have been just fine driving the past 3 winters in Calgary, with the odd trip out to Banff. I would say they are only questionable once the weather hits -30’s. Other than that they have been comparable to my blizzaks.
Firestone weathergrip on a Ford ecosport and they work well. Ive done Banff on snowy days and down to Radium as well .As always drive with extra caution.
I've been getting good service, tires and otherwise, from Firestone for literally decades. Many locations for ongoing service needs and access to history, good road hazard warranty protection, relatively good with appointment timing.
We had Firestone Transforces on my dad\u2019s truck when I was in high school. Slightest hint of mud and they would pack up and slick off in an instant, but man they lasted a long time.
I have these on my RAM 1500 and they spin on wet pavement even with care on the throttle.
I bought these tires 18,000 miles ago. My car is a Toyota Camry. And frankly, it was smoother before these tires. Definitely avoid these tires.
