Ford Escape Tire Sizes, Pressure and Bolt Pattern

Each row links to the full specification for that generation, including trim-by-trim breakdowns and the part numbers. Where engines within a generation differ, that page separates them.

The tire sizes on a Ford Escape is set by its generation, not its model year, so each generation has one page carrying the complete figures, part numbers and fitment notes for every year it covers.

What size tires does a Ford Escape take?

It varies by trim and wheel size, 3 factory fitments exist, from 225/65R17 up. Check the placard on the driver's door jamb for the size your specific vehicle left the factory with.

What is the bolt pattern on a Ford Escape?

5x108. That is the figure you need when shopping for aftermarket wheels; centre bore and offset still have to match separately.

What is the lug nut torque for a Ford Escape?

100 lb-ft, tightened in a star pattern with a torque wrench. Impact guns routinely overshoot this by 100 lb-ft or more, which warps rotors and stretches studs.

Does the Ford Escape come with a spare tire?

Compact temporary spare on most gas trims; hybrid SE ships with an inflator kit (12V battery lives in the spare well).
