- 2013 Explorer Limited
Hello!
Looking for some advice. I have a 2013 Explorer Limited. It currently has the Hankook Optimo H426 on it. To make a long story short I was in an accident the other day (everyone was ok). I got a call from the adjuster today stating that my passengers side front tire (where the impact happened) has a gouge in it and needs to be replaced. The insurance will pay for one new tire (another Hankook h426)….. Ive been doing some research and I keep seeing that I need to replace all 4 tires, that you cant just replace one as It will mess up the 4wd/awd system. I was hoping I could just balance out the front. By no means are the tires worn down (8/32’s all the way around)…. Do I need to replace all 4 or can I just replace the front two?
