TY, fly. The wheels are ASA brand, type JH8, $234 at The Tire Rack... http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/results.jsp...autoModClar=FWD ...4th row down.

 

Tires are General Grabber UHPs in 275/45-20 and are the same diameter as the 18"ers supplied by Ford. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Compare1.jsp...mp;x=53&y=9 ..., 5th tire down.

 

Here are better pics of the wheel and tire.

"By the way if I want to change 22' rim, do I need to do others things? I means just change the rim and tire is fine?"

 

The wheel and tire diameter have to match, so I don't know what you mean by '...just change the rim and tire is fine'.

 

BTW it's '22" wheel', not 22' rim.

 

I assume he was talking about brake or suspension changes. Suspension is a maybe - depends on the size of the tire being used. Brakes will fit but won't work as well with the larger wheels. I'd recommend a new larger brake kit if you're going to do 22's.

 

Just think of all the time and money you'll save (not to mention ride comfort) sticking with the OEM wheels and tires.

I like this one. I think it is pretty cool. Just too expensive for me.

The otherthing is that I am living Canada. Lots of website not shipping to Canada. Cuz I want to get some accessories for my edge. The dealer give me the price almost double US price, it is bullshit. So is any recommend place I can order some accessories.

Thanks again@! :shades:

You need to also make sure that the tire won't be too tall or wide for the wheel well.

 

www.1010tires.com has a Tire Size Calculator that will help you determine the overall difference in size from the 18 to the 22.

 

FYI - Tire - the rubber thing that touches the ground

Wheel - the steel/aluminum/chrome/etc thing that hooks to the car that the tire wraps around.
