New Edge Sport Upgrade/Accessories questions.

[Gerald Valdez]

Hello all.

 

1.

I just picked up a set of 21" OEM Gunmetal Hypersilver dealer take off's(wheels/tires/TPMS). Am I correct in assuming that the speedo will need to be recalibrated? The plan was to take the 20" wheels that came with it and put some Bridgestone's Blizzak DM-V2's for winter/snowboard season. I wonder if I am going to have to have it re-calibrated every time I swap them out or, if I could get a tire size for the winter set up, to match the 21" summer set up, so I won't have to keep re-calibrating it.

 

2.

With all the deer and wildlife up here, I'm concerned with lighting. Has anyone installed a LED bar in the grill by chance? Also, my Sport came with the Halogen lights. Is it an expensive en devour to swap to the HID headlamps from FORD for little better lighting?

 

3. I will be using a Thule hitch bike rack and Tram(snowboard adapter). I'm a little concerned with excessive grime being thrown up on my bikes and boards while using the hitch rack. I read somewhere about someone modding the OEM rear splash guards to fit on the Sport. Anyone one have pics or insight on the process?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!!!

 

 

Cheers,

Gerald

Speedo only needs recalibration if the total diameter of wheel + tire is off. If the tire compensates for the change in wheel diameter, you should be good.

 

There are a couple of threads where people have installed light bars in the 2011-14 Edge, but not 2015+ (yet).
