So this might sound stupid on my part but what exactly is the implication of a greater than 3% diameter variance? or diameter variance in general?

Planning on putting on a set of 20 inch Velgen VMB7s on the vehicle

Hey everyone, I am about to change my tires but I have not been able to settle on what tire size to get. I know a large amount of you are using the 295/45/R20 for your wheel setups but I wanted to get everyone's opinion on whether I should go for the size of 285/50/R20 or 285/45/R20? Please let...

Sorry Peter I don't quite follow. Are you saying, 21 inch wheels are an option for 2011-2019 explorers? If so, do you have a website that shows this?

Did you manage to paint the crappy plastic trim?

Anyone here have a clue if the 21 inch rims for the 2020 explorers will fit the 2011-2019 models? Interested to know than murder my wallet with a set of aftermarkets.

You may be experiencing parasitic battery drain, there's a thread about it somewhere in the forums.

I wonder if he will return to the forum. Really nice explorer he made.

UPDATE: Everything is back to normal

Thanks for the advice Jon! Great to hear from you.

That is true however I don't even know the basics of FORScan, pulling the fuse is the best option I think. Which fuse is for the IPC? Thankfully I have help at home I am sure i can get that done. Even my park sensors are affected, they sound like they came out from a 2001 Excursion.

Thanks for the quick feedback about this. Would there be any way to make it resolve on its own without using FORScan? I am aware of all of FORScan's benefits however it has ALOT of extra work done to it to accommodate me and my wheelchair and I don't want to risk anything going wrong (i.e.: I...

Has anybody else had this issue? I noticed this today after I got the vehicle going again. My explorer's parking sensors made a very different beep than usual. And my door chime sound changed from the MY2015+ chime to the pre 2015 chime. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the input! :dpchug:. My choices are narrowed to Continental and Michelin.

Thanks so much for the help Peter, I had another question regarding tires, what is this I hear about "summer" tires for the explorer? From what I have read, this refers to 265/45/R20 tires? Is this true?

When you were running the paradas what size did you use? I did a little bit of digging and it doesn’t seem like they carry them in 255/50/R20

This is super helpful! thanks peter, I am looking for brands and sizes, currently I am looking at Michelin, Continental and Yokohama. You are right about 295s pushing it. Also I'll take a look at the link for the tire thread. Just out of curiosity, what tires are you running?

Thanks for the help guys, my apologies for the late reply, life has been quite busy

Hey guys, so I am finally on the road with my special wheelchair adapted '17 Explorer and I am soon going to replace the stock 18 inch rims along with the tires. It seems many of the users here are running 295/45/R20, but would you guys recommend any other tire sizes between 245 to 295mm?

Hey guys, would anyone happen to know if you can swap out exterior bits and pieces from the 2018 explorer to the 2017 ?

Hi guys, Long time since I've been on the forum but I'm back with a question: Does anybody happen to know the part number for the 2017 sport tail light assemblies? I really like the smoked look on the sport tail lights vs the XLT tail lights. I know there are ford part sites, yet none of...

You got it! Received mine in shadow black. I do understand now why everybody misses the tuxedo black metallic choice though. Parents both have Benzes with black metallic. It really does make a difference.

Hey guys, I thought I would introduce the latest addition to my family's car lineup... As you will see, this explorer looks extremely different. My explorer has been modified by the guys at Braun Ability, the mobility van company. A ramp has been fitted and the right passenger side rear door...

Nice! Well what I consider a good deal, is just a discount but also having good service and sales people to deal with that are straight shooters and include and detail everything you need to know prior to the sale.

Correct! I will be issued a drop ship code. The vehicle will roll off the Chicago assembly, and be placed in transit to Winimac Indiana, the location of the conversion factory and then sent to Ontario, and from there shipped over to BC.
