  1. To be honest, I didn't drive it very much before I replaced the tires. I picked the Edge up on a Thursday, had my window tint applied the next day. Couldn't roll the windows down for 3 days so I left it in the garage over the weekend. Drove it to work and home on that Monday; then had the wheels/tires changed on Tuesday. The little I drove (with the old) compared to the new I did notice the huge difference in the handling. The Hankooks are a lot stickier (and wider) so the handling is far superior. Also from a dead start (red light, etc) accellerating fast, the tires grab a lot quicker. I can't do freeway on-ramps doing 90mph like I can in my RX-8 but doing 65 in the Edge is almost as much fun.
  2. Carbon with Camel Interior: I notice the reflection only when pulling into my garage (light to dark?). As I'm driving down the street, I can "look for" the reflection and I can see a little of it. But normal every day driving, I don't have an issue.
  3. X-Plan is sometimes called the "Friends and family plan." It is usually 4 percent over the A and Z plan price. Here is a great link for more info: http://www.umd.umich.edu/univ/staffsen/forddiscounts.htm Who ever calls to get your the pin number will give Ford your social security number. Then the financial guy at the dealer puts in the pin and the last four of your social. As long as that matches, you are golden. I have used the A and Z plan (my dad is retired Ford Aerospace) for over 15 years and I have never had a dealership refuse the pin number. There is a limit to the number of X-plan numbers one can get per year. If you don't have anyone who can get you one, let me know and I will see if my dad is near his limit.
  4. Are you talking about the front, passenger, etc floor mats or the mat for the very back? Weathertech.com I assume? I went there and saw their mats, but nothing in the Camel for the very back.
  5. I paid a little over $1500.00 (taxes and installed) for Hankook 275/45/20s and Enkei LX-M Chrome wheels. I have a Carbon SEL Plus. There weren't any with the 17's so I told the dealer to exchange the 18's and chrome with the stock SE 17's. Saved $750.00 there so I guess my new 20's and chrome wheels cost only $750.00.
  6. I put 20's on my Edge and the TPMS works just fine.
  7. I went with Hankook Ventus ST - 275/45/20 with Enkei LX-M wheels. Window tint is 15 all around.
  8. I'm all for the power lift gate. Everything else, no biggie. I have already put 275/45/20's with new Enkei LX-M Chrome wheels so I'm a happy camper.
  9. NY...looks very nice. Question for you though - did you have to do any adjustments so the 275/45/20s would fit? Or just put them on the wheels, mount them and done?
