Choose your model year to see exact tire sizes, pressure PSI, load ratings, and in-stock options for your specific Ford C-MAX configuration.
This page organizes the U.S.-market Ford C-MAX tire fitment by model year, covering the C-MAX Hybrid from 2013-2018 and the C-MAX Energi from 2013-2017. Selecting the correct year matters because Ford revised the trim structure during production, replacing SEL with Titanium for 2017 and introducing a new 17-inch Titanium wheel design. Choose a model year to review the available factory trims, original tire specifications, wheel configurations, and compatible replacement tires for that production version.
The U.S. C-MAX completed one generation, but its equipment was not identical across all six model years. Early vehicles were offered in SE and SEL configurations, while the 2017 lineup introduced Titanium and added an SE version of the plug-in C-MAX Energi. Ford retained a 17-inch wheel format across the documented range, including P225/50R17 factory fitment, but wheel design and trim availability changed. Selecting the year first keeps the OEM configuration tied to the correct Hybrid or Energi model.
Each C-MAX model-year page narrows the vehicle to its documented Hybrid or Energi configuration and available trims, including SE, SEL, and Titanium. You can review the factory-installed 225/50R17 tire specification, compare original 17-inch wheel configurations, and identify replacement tires that match the recorded OEM size.
Generation | Model Years | Production & Fitment Highlights |
U.S. introduction | Five-passenger C-MAX Hybrid and plug-in C-MAX Energi introduced with front-wheel drive, 17-inch aluminum wheels, and documented P225/50R17 tires | |
Continuing production | Hybrid continued in SE and SEL trims; Energi continued in SEL trim; both retained the 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle hybrid system and eCVT | |
Trim and wheel revision | SEL renamed Titanium; Energi offered in SE and Titanium trims; a new 17-inch Titanium wheel design was introduced | |
Final U.S. model year | C-MAX Hybrid continued in SE and Titanium trims with documented 225/50R17 fitment on 17 × 7-inch wheels; Energi was no longer offered |
Coverage includes every U.S. Ford C-MAX model year from 2013 through 2018. It accounts for the six-year C-MAX Hybrid run, the 2013-2017 C-MAX Energi, and the 2017 transition from SEL to Titanium. Model-year selection also separates trim-specific wheel designs while keeping the documented 17-inch factory fitment connected to the correct vehicle configuration.
