So I can appreciate that they don't install something that doesn't meet spec, except they didn't catch it when they ordered the tires two weeks before the install date.You should be appreciative that Costco won't mount tires that don't meet spec. A great example of a company ensuring that consumers stay safe.
Note - I'm not saying that the spec is good or not, or required or not. It exists. And consumers often lack the knowledge to know / understand the spec, so the installer steps in.
The Mach-E requires XL (extra load) tires. Most consumers are clueless.
Our local discount tire is the worst. They've stripped studs and improperly mounted tires several times.IMO, Discount Tire blows away Costco in every aspect. Longtime Costco member. Discount Tire customer since 1979.
He's not being rude. He is being honest.Don't be rude.

Last year I bought new tires. They ended up damaging all 4 wheels. Almost all damage was a worn part on the machine that mounts / discounts tires, as it rotated it made a hairline scratch, barely visible except to me. This was due to it being excessively worn. Regional VP got involved, got 4 brand new wheels of my choosing. They stated that pandemic decimated their staffing, because when they shutdown they let like 90% company-wide go, and most didn't return upon reopening. Lots of trainees a year ago. They apologized and made good, I got 8 year old rims replaced with new ones. They ended up servicing all the machines.Our local discount tire is the worst. They've stripped studs and improperly mounted tires several times.
I ordered these tire & rims from Costco.
They look great and I have not noticed much of a range loss. I had to buy the TPMS from Costco as well they won't install 3rd party units. Every thing works. So I guess I will install the 3rd party TPMS on my RV trailer. See if I can get the truck see them. Oh!! these are in Canadian dollars.
Yes Costco installed, their TPMS, mounted the tires on the rims. The size of the rim does not matter 18" to 22" is OEM. My Lariat came on 20" wheel and tires. But the spare tire is on an 18" rim.would Costco install these for you?
Or are they not considered OEM spec approved because the size is R18, not R20?
Agree with all you said. On an earlier thread I started on this subject two months ago, folks warned that Costco would not install them. So I went to a local company -- Sullivan Tire -- and they installed them. AMAZING tires!!! AMAZING truck!!!I ordered tires (Blizzaks DM-V2) through Costco and have run into a problem.
The load sticker on the truck specifies that you need 275/60R20 116T tires, but the Blizzaks only come in 115R. Costco ordered the tires because their system said it would work, but they wouldn't install them when they got here.
Looking into it, it doesn't seem like anyone makes 275/60R20s with a 116 load index, except maybe a few studded tires, which are soon to be banned in my state.
Anyone else run into this? I'm not even sure why the sticker is asking for 116 load index, 115 tires should be good for 10,716 lbs, and the Lightning has a GVWR of 8250 lbs. What gives?
