Winter rims and tires

Whether you buy from them or not, the Tire Rack website can show you a lot of the options available for your car. I bought a set of 17" Bridgestone Blizzak WS80's for my 17 Escape from them last year. Steel wheels were available but aluminum wheels started at around $35 more each. I figured I'd want to buy some kind of wheel covers for the steel wheels anyway (and they never look very good) so going the extra $35 per wheel seemed worth it to me. I put them on for the second time last week. Put on the set of WS70's that I got for my wife's 2012 Fusion some time ago the same day. I think I've bought five winter packages from Tire Rack since 1992 and I've been happy with all of them.

I run these in the winter - so does my local Sheriff and Police dept.

I have them on my Lincoln only because they had a rebate at the time and the General Alti-MAX Arctic's did not...I am not dissatisfied with their performance, mind you, but if I could've, I would've preferred the Generals', much quieter and equal or better grip. I have had Alti-MAX Arctics before and loved 'em....just, this time, the rebate on the Goodyears was too much to resist...

Will aluminum factory alloys off a 2016 Ford Edge fit on a 2019 Lincoln MKC?

 

Bolt pattern and offset are the same, but just to be on the safe side, I would put the unmounted rim on the car to check for fitment and any clearance issues with suspension and brake components. Tire sizes are definitely different.
