akirby Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Right, but to charge $50 bucks more a tire that is an inch larger is a bit insane. The rest of the 19 inch tires are a pretty spendy also vs say 20 inch tires. They aren't the same tire. One is a 95H and the other is a 97H low rolling resistance. Ford works with the tire mfrs to engineer each tire for each vehicle. Even the same brand and model tire in the same size can have different versions with different compounds and tread patterns. Volume is also a factor. But don't assume they're the same tire because in almost every case they are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
