2018 Ford Edge Tires

Ford's published maintenance schedule calls for rotating and adjusting air pressure every 10,000 miles. Driving conditions and tire wear can make an inspection useful sooner. David McDavid Ford can review the service history and the current tread pattern.

• Rotation helps manage front-to-rear wear.
• Pressure is checked against the vehicle placard.
• Tread depth is measured on all four tires.

The inspection covers all four tires and looks for uneven wear or other visible concerns. The rotation recommendation depends on the drivetrain and the tires actually fitted. Booking service provides a recommendation based on what the inspection finds.

• All four tires receive a tread measurement.
• Rotation follows the applicable drivetrain pattern.
• Replacement can be recommended when wear indicates it.

Directional tread can limit how a tire moves between positions, while staggered fitments can use different front and rear specifications. Those details change the correct pattern. A technician should inspect the tires fitted to the vehicle and follow the applicable manufacturer guidance.

• Front-wheel drive puts greater demands on the front tires.
• All-wheel drive benefits from closely matched tread depth.
• Directional and staggered setups can change tire movement.

A mismatched tread depth on an all-wheel-drive vehicle can load the driveline, so replacement decisions require an inspection. A front-wheel-drive Edge may have different replacement considerations based on the remaining tread and tire condition. David McDavid Ford can compare all four tires before recommending replacement.

• Compare tread wear across the complete set.
• Consider the drivetrain when evaluating a mismatch.
• Inspect for uneven wear and visible tire damage.

Drivers may also notice vibration at highway speed or tread wearing unevenly across the set. A service inspection measures all four tires and distinguishes a rotation need from a replacement recommendation. The tires actually fitted and their service history determine the next step.

• Check whether a tread indicator is level with the tread.
• Use a penny test as a general wear check.
• Have vibration or uneven wear professionally inspected.

The service visit includes tread measurement, rotation guidance, pressure adjustment, and a tire pressure monitoring system reset. You can also review service specials before booking. David McDavid Ford is at 300 West Loop 820 South in Fort Worth, Texas.
