Ford Maverick Tire Guide
Tire Sizes, Types & Replacement Guide for Every Maverick Trim
Ford Maverick Tire Sizes by Trim
The Ford Maverick is a compact truck that delivers excellent fuel economy without sacrificing utility. Tire selection is important for maintaining the Maverick's efficiency — especially on hybrid models where low rolling resistance tires directly impact MPG. The Maverick uses compact SUV tire sizes, making replacements affordable and widely available.

Tire Tips for Your Maverick
- Maverick Hybrid owners should replace with low rolling resistance tires to maintain the 42 MPG city rating — standard all-seasons can reduce MPG by 1-3
- The Maverick shares tire sizes with the Ford Escape and Bronco Sport — cross-shopping between these models works
- Tremor's 245/65R17 is slightly wider than the standard 225/65R17 — don't mix sizes across axles
- Compact truck tire sizes are among the most affordable to replace — budget $100-175 per tire for quality all-season options
- FWD Mavericks wear front tires faster — rotate every 5,000 miles to extend overall tire life
