I've never heard of an installer supplying bands for a wheel/tire setup that was purchased elsewhere....those bands aren't really cheap.

Wow, yet another Enkei LX-M wheel purchase. I bought those back in May, along w/Bridgestone Alenza's for the wife's MKX (see gallery). Obviously a popular choice....

http://www.lincolnaccessories.com/fas/b2c/...mp;extyear=2007 Click: exterior #2 Click: rear bumper protector #3 Rear Bumper Protector Part Number: 7A1Z-17B807-AA MSRP: $55.00 Affix this scuff-resistant vinyl applique to the top of your vehicle’s rear bumper in order to help protect the upper surface from paint damage that can occur during the loading and unloading of cargo. Fits: Lincoln MKX 2008 2007

Well, I saw it on the Lincoln accessories page for $55 and was gonna order it so the bumper doesn't get scratched, and then decided to wait. I figure IF my bumper gets scratched, I'll buy the damn thing to cover it up. If it doesn't...I saved $55....LOL.

How did you transfer to the 20's? Did you purchase new bands, and move the sensors?

Aha!, Exact same rims I put on the wife's MKX (from buywheelstoday.com) in May ....check my pics in gallery. Enkei LXM's are classy rims that are reasonably priced. I also put Bridgestone Alenza's (275/45/20) on it ....expensive, but well worth it while being rated for 60K miles. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?aut...=si&img=287

Yeah, I too would be interested to hear some feedback. Our Touareg came with a bumper protector on it, so I was suprised to see the MKX/Edge so unprotected. Although we're careful, it's inevitable that we're gonna scratch it so we need to get something on there....

I noticed it too, while moving the car back a little in the garage and trying to get it positioned in a particular spot. It's got a lot more 'play' in it than my other cars, that's for sure.

Try and get an X-plan pin number....

Thanks ...we wanted to give the car a little more 'muscle' with the 20" rims, but didn't wanna cheapen it or make it looked 'pimped out' either. We found those rims gave the desired effect we were looking for. LOL, yeah ...the task of uploading pics was somewhat daunting for me, but after I found the directions it became a bit easier!

I had mine done the day before yesterday ...30% on the fronts (slightly lighter than the back), and it cost $70.

OK, finally figured it out and posted some pics in the gallery. The wife really loves this vehicle....

Thanks. I've got an '05 Expedition with 22's on it ...the warning light has been on since the day the wheels were put on; I like this newer system better. I too have heard of the pvc pipe with sealed ends & sensors sitting in the back of your vehicle, but it's too much trouble for me to give it a try. Stock rims replaced with 20" rims ....OE bands don't fit, therefore no sensors in new setup.
