Would buy them again.  Conti's, too.  Expensive but quiet and grippy... And they look great on the car.

Sorry that should have read 17,000 miles. Not 13.

It works and have had no issues at all.  Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Yes they. Are the stock rims... 13,000 miles and NO issues. 

Anyone tried one of these yet?  Open to another suggestion if you have one....

Thanks

Still loving the Conti Extremes... Wear is perfect at 15,000+ miles on tires... no alignment problems, no rubs and virtually no noise change from stocks.

Still have H&R springs.
 

Have had 4 adults and luggage for 4 day vacation in car and traveled several hundred miles.  Ride was awesome and fuel mileage was still between 26-28.

Have great tire people taking care of the tires. Change oil every 3500-4000 miles,and we go over them and rotate every change. So far around 11,000 miles on them and wear is perfect. Chassis is adjusted as close to 0 camber on all 4 as possible.
 

I couldn't be happier with the car or any mods we've done to her.  I thought I'd miss my Focus ST and I do, but I am completely happy with the Edge. Only wish is that the transmission shift points were more adjustable - would like (in sport mode) to have it go back to auto on its own after a manual override shift without having to do it by holding upshift paddle for a few seconds. If anyone knows how to do this in Forscan please let me know?

Any further questions, let me know. Be glad to help if I can.

Haven't had that issue and the first thing I did wasnfind my favorite curvy road and test it out. ;-)

Tire pressure is the same and didn't change anything in Forscan as they are the exact same height as original tires.  They are an inch wider and I know that could have an impact.

Nope!  Love them... Maybe a tiny bit less on fuel mileage, but did tires and grill shutter delete around same time so it's hard to say. Did a thousand miles over the last 4 days and got 28.5 as opposed to 30.2 last time I did exact same trip.

Amazing... I had an 05 Magnum RT that I did a wiper delete on as well.  That was the best car I ever owned. 300,000 miles on odometer when I sold it .

Around here (winter months) its a necessity. Driving on the highway in the rain or sleet makes visibility difficult  without a rear wiper or washer. 

 

FWIW, I'd save the parts to restore when you decide to sell the car. The next owner may need a rear wiper and make the sale more difficult without it. Don't believe that it's a DOT requirement, so dealer can't reduce the price of the trade-in. 

Thanks for the advice, the way things are going now it will be years before I even think about trading it in.  Love the car and just finished al mods I had in mind.  

Good looking car.... Sport, right??   Is it lowered?

When you wash your windshield, does the spray mess up the rear? (Run down and leave streaks)?

Nope... 

Functionality is nil.

But, I no longer drive down the road on a sunny day with the rear windshield wiper on intermittent pointing out to the people behind me that I'm an idiot.  ?

Nope!

Better pic here

COBB delete kit worked just fine.... Thanks for the input..

Decent shot of tire width and the left side of exhaust tips.  Getting all of the sound past that bumper with the tips eliminated 99% of thee offensive drone.

Sorry this took so damn long.  I'm. OTR driver and had to do all mods in increments and just got around to tires.  Here are pics 295/35 21 Continental Extreme Contacts

Used original pipes, installed a Magnaflow crossover resonator into Flowmaster FX mufflers.  Eliminated the bumper outlets and replaced with black chrome slanted tips.  Not only looks better but takes 100% of the sound past the rear bumper instead of in front of it virtually eliminating drone.

2019 ST around 70/30 Hiway/City my MPG has never dropped below 26.5.  93 Octane.  One trip (South AL to Coastal SC), I actually averaged 30.5..  I rarely ever use Cruise Control, and am not shy about acceleration. 

Love this forum, logged on to see if anyone had replaced the hideous tips and there it is, exactly what I want to do.  I can't help but think it sounds better with the outlet being completely past the bumper instead of resonating behind it.  I know in theory the sound is all supposed to go out of the cutout, but please...

Thanks, I'll have mine done asap and will complete the Magnaflow Crossover resonator to Flowmaster FX straight thrus I've pieced together. Sound is awesome.... 

Looks awesome,  thanks for taking time to reply. Bought a delete kit from COBB.  They said if it didn’t fit I could send it back.  Will post pics when I get it installed..

Thanks.  Gonna check to see if some FMC products use same rear wiper motor assembly.  Think that may be the case and if so, the same one I used for the Focus might work on the Edge. Will post findings.

Just lowered mine with H&K and stock shocks.  Awesome results!  Way vehicle should have come IMO.
