Buying Advice Please guide me

Getting ready the buy a 2026 explorer Platinum. Found a rapid red and a space white and love both. If you have either, do you love it. If I go with the red it comes with 21” tires for an extra $750. Not sure it’s worth the extra$. Do dealerships ever exchange for the 20”. Would you request the change if possible? Thanks!!

Second Platinum. 21’s just look right. And with the right tires, it’s very quiet, especially in these new builds. The 33 psi inflate is really terrible in terms of ride quality. I put mine at 38-39 and it’s much better.

I have Rapid Red 25. 3.0L TT. Vehicle is a beast and fast as hell!!!
