In 2012, the Ford Escape came with standard 235/70R16 tires across all trims. The Limited, XLT, and XLT V6 trim levels offered an option to switch to 225/65R17 tires. The wheel size for most models was 16 inches in diameter and 7 inches wide, except for the top-tier trims with the upgraded tires, which had 17-inch wheels. These vehicles would require tire replacement every 30,000 to 50,000 miles based on the predominant terrain you drive on.
