Ford Escort tires vary by model: 1. Base models use Maxxis brand tires; 2. Top-tier models use Goodyear Assurance brand tires. The Ford Escort is a compact car under Changan Ford. Taking the 2019 manual variant as an example, it is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan with dimensions of 4587mm in length, 1825mm in width, 1490mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2687mm. The 2019 manual variant is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 90kW at 6500rpm.

I've been driving the Ford Escort for many years, and I remember the new car came with Michelin tires, which felt quite durable. The original tires equipped on the Escort aren't fixed to one brand; they vary based on production and sales regions. Common brands include Michelin, Goodyear, and Bridgestone. If you want to confirm the brand on your car, just check the markings on the tire sidewall—the brand name is clearly printed there. Tire choice is really important. A good brand can make the car drive more smoothly, reduce noise, and even save some fuel. During maintenance, regularly check tire pressure and wear. Don't wait until they're completely worn out to replace them—it's both safer and more cost-effective. When getting new tires, they don't necessarily have to be the original brand; just make sure the size matches.

As someone who frequently drives long distances, I believe tires are a major safety concern. Common tire brands for the Ford Escort, like Bridgestone or Goodyear, offer strong wet-road traction to reduce the risk of skidding. The original factory configuration varies by model, so it's best to refer to the owner's manual or check vehicle information. Tire wear affects braking distance, so I recommend checking tire pressure monthly and considering replacement when the tread wear indicators are halfway gone. Don't underestimate tire replacement—a good set can last around 50,000 kilometers, saving a lot on maintenance costs.

When changing tires, I found that the Ford Escort can use brands like Michelin or Giti. The former offers better performance but is more expensive, while the latter is more affordable. The original factory tires vary with the vehicle, so there's no need to strictly stick to the original ones. When choosing, consider daily road conditions, such as opting for quiet tires for a more comfortable city drive. Tire lifespan is generally around four to five years, and maintaining proper tire pressure can extend their usage time. Remember not to overload or brake abruptly to avoid damaging the tires.
