Hello

 

I just put on put on my new winter black replica 20" rims on 255/20/50 winters (the tires were from my previous 2014 Ford Explorer )

 

These rims stick out more than the 21 inch

 

I used the bolts that were already with the 21 inch wheels so no need to buy new bolts

I just got my husky floor liners

 

Here are some pics

 

They are alright

60° conical bevel lug nuts. Responded in a different post.

Note these may not be the proper lugs, just an example.

hi, thank you...

Sounds like they're requiring a 60 degree, Conical seat lug nut.

Hi

 

I wont be using tpms....

 

Yes, the new replika rims require 60 degree Conical Seat lug nuts, but are my OEM lug nuts from my 21 inch Ford Edge 2016 also 60 degrees and can i use my OEM lug nuts on my NEW replika rims?

 

 

Thanks

I've got them installed and they're perfect! Photo shows the new ones with the factory lug nuts, and installed.

 

 

 

 

Can you please let me know the specs of the oem or the lug nuts you bought? Are they 60 seat?

 

Thanks

Hello all

 

I just got my winter 20 inch rims. Replika r189. The reason i went with 20 inch is because i already have 255/50/20 winter tires (3 winters) from my returned lease 2014 ford explorer. So i only had to buy rims

 

See the 2 pictures of my brand new replika r189

 

 

Here is my question to all

 

It says that these new rims r189 use lug nuts "60 seat"

 

Can i use my oem lug nuts on these rims?

Are my oem lug nuts 60 seat?

I dont understand this terminology

 

Thank you

 

Hello all

It says that these r189 use lug nuts "60 seat" i dont know what that means but can i use my oem lug nuts for those rims?

 

Thank you very much

Hello all

 

I bought my 21 inch sport edge. (This car mooooves wow!!)

 

I want to buy 20 inch wheels for winter

 

I already have 255/20/50 winter tires from my ford explorer (3 winters with those winter tires) so i thought of buying 20 inch rims

 

These are the rims i want to buy rwc LR88 the LR88 has a direct fit

 

20x8.5 5x108 ET45 CB63.4

 

http://www.rwcwheels.com/en/site/collection/wheel-collection/land-rover/lr88-black

 

Because the offset these tires will stick out about 5mm more than the 265 of the 21 inch rims

 

And the height of the wheels is 2.5% more than the 265 of the 21 inch

 

Question

 

Will the size difference in tires affect the odometer?

 

Will the fact that my winter tires stick out about 5mm more cause me issues?

 

 

Anyone have any other suggestions for 20 inch rims with direct fit only?

 

Im looking for direct fit only

 

Thanks

Ok

 

Do you guys thisk this is normal?

Oops it is crooked

 

397km till empty ... On full tank

Jumped in my wife's Edge to check the oil and noticed that while not a long trip she just did a round trip of about 15 miles with that short trip showing 28.5 mpg. We live in a very hilly/mountainous area so even that 15 miles had some nice climbs, curves, flats, and descents. My 05 F150 could take a few lessons from these new motors and their associated technology.

 

We have also found that using the adaptive cruise when on bigger open roads gives the best mpg, as the slow downs and speed ups are really smoothed out preventing the engine from wasting fuel from harsh changes in speed.

Hello

 

How did you post your picture

 

I have a couple of pictures to post but cant seem to do it

 

Thanks

Hi

 

I think there is something wrong with my fuel meter

 

From a full tank and after i drove about 300km my fuel indicator stated i was low on fuel and fuel needle was at empty .... This was weird

 

So i went to the gas station and filled up. I only used 15 liters to fill back up to full status ... 15 liters is not much

 

So after filling up with 15 liters my fuel needle is backup to full

 

My fuel reading is between 21L/100km-25L/100

 

Can anyone confirm: on a full tank my reading states 394km Distance to Empty

 

Thats about 245 miles Distance to empty

 

Can you guys please confirm?

 

I have pictures

 

How do i post pictures?

Also keep in mind that these Sports have a pretty small fuel tank. It will get better as I am now at 24 mpg after 1300 miles on the highway at 60 mph. City driving is usually not very kind to these vehicles in general as idling and accelerating uses a lot of petrol.

I replaced a 2014 ford explorer (6 cylinder) that was getting me a little over 19 L/100km in city driving, i will see if the ford edge sport which right now is at 22L/100km can match the ford explorer

 

We will see

 

Also what should i do about the 4inch scratch (not deep but visible in the clear-coat on top side of the rear spoiler) i dont want the dealer touching my car anymore. I will get this buffed out by a professional???

 

I had to also very delicatly remove any tiny glass fragments that were stuck to the paint. All this becuase the dealer broke the rear window. At least they teplaced the window.

LOOOL don't worry about that, the reason its so high is because the engine spent most of its time idling or being driven slowly , which consumes fuel like crazy, especially when its new. I get like 35L /100km when I reset the trip computer and sit in the parking lot for 30 mins. Just ignore it, break in the engine, after about 400 km you'll see a change, then once break in is over after ~1200 -1500 km you'll get a consistent reading.

I will give it a bit of time but i am worried seeing i drove 60 km and used up 1/4 of a tank DAMN!!!

 

Also the dealer scratched the top part of my rear window spoiler when they replaced the rear window

How many miles are on the new car?? I gave mine 3 tanks of gas before even taking the mpg readings with a grain of salt. It needs to break in

The car has 90km (thats about 56miles)

 

i understand that the fuel economy will improve but it is REALLY bad right now

 

And im driving slow.....it is all city driving i might add

Omg

 

I just got my ford edge sport (dealer broke my rear window , they replaced it) it now has less than 100km it actually has 90km on it, i am getting around 22L/100km

 

My numbers are awfull!!!

 

Did anyone else experience the same?

 

Thanks in advance
