Flat tire with 1900 miles on my ST

[EdgeST]

I don't trust this one, looks like a Flex spare, which will not fit an Edge. I found a couple more like this.

Really?  How can you tell?

 

Ad says Edge, size is 155/70R18 which matches what comes with the Edge ST. Flex size is 145/70R18.

 

Only difference I see between an older Edge 18” spare and 2019 Edge 18” spare are the number of holes in the wheel.

Found 2 others that were Flex, exactly the same as this one with the 4 holes. Also a D and not an R tire. A Flex wheel won’t work and I don’t want to take the chance !

BTW Ford offers a tire and wheel warranty package.

I didn't purchase the rim/tire warranty on my 2014 Escape with the 19' rim/tire package and immediately regretted it! cost me $$$$$ when I hit one and needed a new rim and tire. I purchased it for my edge ST this time around.

Mine looks like this now! And with the added security of the compressor and goo. Not cheap, had to order a new rim and tire, but have piece of mind now!
