Hey everybody. Finally bought the Weathertech floor mats for my 2015 AWD F-Sport. With one minor exception they all fit really well and look like they'll really do the job.

That minor exception is the spacing between the holddown fasteners in the Right Rear mat. My factory mats (and car) are both exactly 16", but the RR Weathertech mat is expecting more like 16.375.

Not the end of the world; I just removed the holddown ring from the mat for that spot so the mat will sit flush on the carpet.

What is disturbing was Weathertech's response; the support tech suggest it was a variance in the manufacture of the car!

So, can anybody with a similar model year AWD measure the distance between rear mat holddowns? Are they both 16"? Or is one slightly different?

These are the floorliners, correct? I have them. The rears and fronts lined up perfectly for me. I have 2013 AWD too.

Yeah, floorliners. 3 of the 4 fit perfectly, but one has an odd distance between the two holddown fasteners.

Can you exchange the one that doesn't fit? I like the front floor liners as they don't cave it. But the rear ones always cave in after time, maybe because of the passengers stepping on them. I have had 4 sets of floor liners of previous cars, and the rear ones always had that issue.

I'm working with Weathertech to see what the issue is.

In the meantime, can anybody measure the distance between the holes in their RR factory mat? (Mine is 16")
