Im in Sausalito,about 2 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Sounds good Onyxbfly...keep me posted.

...Im certain the Atturo's are not all season. I specifically bought them as High Performance Summer/Dry weather Tires. Here in the SF Bay Area I run HP Summer tires all year round.

I replaced the Scorpion Verde with Atturo AZ 850's. Never heard of that tire before...they were recommended to me by Roots 57, another member.They are cheap - about $600 delivered and so far I like 'em.
-
Sorry for the late reply...I have not been checking the thread lately. Im asking $490 for the 4 Tires.

Bilstein Shocks for Edge: Don't Hold Your Breath
sfbluenote replied to sfbluenote's topic in Accessories & Modifications
NoDTMF....Im thinking the same thing about the Edge ST Shocks. If they will fit previous Gen.2 models that would be an option... -
I contacted Bilstein USA and asked when I could expect shocks to be available for my '17 Edge Sport...They replied: 'Not on the radar at the moment'.....I do not understand this. Bilstein makes shocks for Motor Homes but not for one of the most popular vehicles on the road? I also contacted Ford Motorsport..they do not make anything for the Edge either. Im lowered on H&R Springs and that has made a night and day difference to the handling..A set of good performance shocks would be just the ticket.

BUMP!

Excellent job Mikula..Well done. I fitted a Magnaflow on a Honda S2000 and had the same problem with an unbearable drone at highway speeds..but at WOT that car sounded like a Ferrari. Could not stand the drone though..took it off. Wonder if the drone is something you get with Magnaflow..

Brake kit works great, but rear shock is leaking

Like that Explorer hood and grill...not keen on that blue Ford emblem though. -

Good luck with the search Roots...keep us posted. I will be calling Bilstein to ask why they don't offer anything for the Edge... I mean they make shocks for just about anything with wheels up to and including a freaking Yugo but not for one of the most popular vehicles in the US....Whats that about?? -
Bummer! We could have done each other a favor... I hoping I can find an Edge owner here in the SF Bay Area.

Just wondering...Would the strut/shocks from the 2018 ST Edge also fit the Gen 2?? Must check that out... -

Just called shock warehouse. They have nothing (Nothing!) for the Gen 2 Edge.. -

Thanks for the report Roots....If only Bilstein made shocks for the Gen 2 (or Koni) we would be in business..Lifetime warranty on Bilstein. Please keep me posted on your search for replacement shocks - it seems like the Motocraft are just not tough enough. When the time comes I will have to pay to get mine replaced..I live in a condo and working on your car within the complex is not allowed by the Kondopolice. -

Roots...Sorry to hear about the shock leaking. Bummer! ..I guess I had better prepare for that happening to me as I have the exact same set up as you (H&R Springs, 21" wheels) Could you tell me about how many miles you put on the car after you fitted the H&R's before you got the leak? -
What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
sfbluenote replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Looks great Roots! Agree that the Red calipers would look wrong with the Ruby Red Metallic..plus everybody and their dog has Red calipers anyway. -

Im wondering how much of an improvement the new suspension upgrades on the ST will be..and, if they do make a substantial improvement over the stock Sport set up, will they be transferable to previous years? -
My first thoughts are what can I retrofit onto my '17 Sport? If the suspension is an improvement I would start there...The grill looks good too. But seeing as Bilstein are not offering anything for the Edge as of yet,an improvement in the set up would be interesting.
