What is the original tire brand for the Ford Escort?
2 Answers
There are two types of tires for the Ford Escort. The mid-to-low trim models use Maxxis VICTRA-510 series tires with the specification 195/65R15. The top trim models use Goodyear Assurance Comfortred series tires with the size 205/55R16. Precautions for tire usage are as follows: 1. Regularly check tire pressure. 2. Regularly inspect tires for bulges, cracks, cuts, punctures, and abnormal wear. 3. Check the tire surface for stones, nails, or other hard objects and clean them promptly. 4. Minimize exposure of tires to direct sunlight.
My Ford Escort is the 2020 model, which originally came with Goodyear Assurance ComfortTred tires in size 205/55 R16. These tires balance durability and comfort well, with good wet traction. After two years of use, I found the tire noise control to be better than expected. I heard that base models might come with Maxxis tires, while higher trims get Goodyear. When buying a car, check the production batch—original tire information is labeled on the B-pillar nameplate and the manual. Tire lifespan is about 40,000–50,000 km. I’ve already replaced mine once and realized there’s no need to stick to the original brand—Michelin tires in the same size offer noticeably better quietness.
