Fitment Notes & Upgrade Options
- 17” to 18” upgrade is the most common enhancement for UX owners
- Maintain overall rolling diameter within ±2% to avoid speedometer and safety system issues
- Ensure correct load rating and speed rating when upgrading tyres
- F Sport models are already optimised for handling, so tyre choice has a bigger impact than wheel size
Why Correct Fitment Matters
Incorrect tyre or wheel specifications can lead to:
- Poor handling and braking performance
- Increased tyre wear
- Vibration due to incorrect centre bore
- Safety risks under load or high-speed driving
Professional fitting ensures correct balancing, alignment, and torque settings.
