Nice write up. You must be Irish as you have a nice way with words. Thanks for the pics too.
I was cleaning my 19s and notice the same.. I could get my hand all the way back to clean that back section... "Barrel". And that section is finished very nicely, surprising given its not normally even seen.HCFX: Very nice enjoy!
I passed on the 20's for the reason I enjoy fully detailing our vehicles. I take the time to clean the barrels of the wheels, the 19's make that easy for me to do and I find they are very well finished inside as well.
I got the tint done at a local tint shop, it's 20% tint to match, and it is a very close match all things considered. They did a really great job on it, the tint covers the entire window right up to the edge, and the quarter window on the door is all covered. It looks fantastic, the best tint job I've ever had done on any of my vehicles.Where did you get the Tint done & what Percentage is it ?
When you roll down the Window does the Tint cover the whole window ?
Is it Lighter than the Factory back Window Tint ?
What is the 3M Protection ?
I tend to prefer the look of the 19" wheels myself, I think they have a more youthful look vs the 20's which have a more mature look. But the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All season tires in my opinion are superior to the ho-hum Michelin Latitudes on the 19's in almost every aspect, so I went that route. That, and I prefer the way the 20's fill out the wheelwell. I wish you could get a wheel that is styled like the 19's but in a 20" size, but I have gotten a whole pile of compliments on the style of the wheels, so I have no regrets.HCFX: Very nice enjoy!

Although it seems some owners are not all that pleased, I usually prefer the optional sound package, but THX was not in stock without 20's and Tech included, nor in I/S & Eb combow. It has to be a lot better than the standard. Only other option I will always miss, not getting. I did not want to wait for an order.
I passed on a 12 MKX and fully agree with your comments. I do look forward to the 16 MKX with the anticipation that all of what the MKC has to offer be there and one upped in some areas to make it a very desirable vehicle.
