Dragging an old thread up as in the same position ...

Looking at the stock 18 on this pic, looks like larger discs will run it close:

Also, no V1's available as Ecoboost, maybe the reason is 18" spec wheels.

Now I have a Born, I can say with the 19's on my e-boost, there is only the width of my index finger between the calipers and the wheel inner face.
Given that, I suspect 18's would be very close, if not fouling the e-boost cars calipers.

Which doesn't leave much choice for a good all season in the 19" sizes. The Michelin cross climates not in that size, the next best looks to be Pirelli Cinturato all seasons, on tyre ratings at least.
