Kenda Klever RT KR601, 37x12.5x17
RTR 0 offset wheels
Sitting on stock Badsquatch suspension.
JCR Tailgate reinforcement.
(2” lift & Icon Tie rods going on today!)

Side note: I’ve always been a tire nerd. For many years I made a habit of selling my tires every spring and buying fresh rubber. I’ve now had three sets of Kenda RT’s and they have been my favorite by far. Highly recommend.
I can’t wait to get this beast out on the trail!

Friend, will you fit in the garage if you add a 2" lift?!

You hit the nail on the head, moving up in size and to a different category is going to come with tradeoffs over OE. This is why it's important to prioritize the performance attributes you want the tires to deliver most. As a high level example, moving from a highway style tread design to an All Terrain one can expect an increase in noise - the more aggressive the tread pattern (void ratio) the louder the tire.

Falken, Yokohama, and Toyo are a few popular brands that offer A/T tires that work out well for many. I would suggest a semi aggressive A/T, something like the Geolandar A/T G015 sounds like a good option for you.

To touch on the KO2, yes, this model is on backorder until late March, early April in the 295/70R-18 size.



It was our pleasure - your rig looks great :cool:

Thank you for your business!




Glad the pressure adjustment helped! Thank you for the feedback.








Absolutely love the color combinations here! Nicely Done!
Love all these colors too. I originally wanted to go white analog, but when I ended up choosing eruption green with the yellow undertones, the Bronze Methods just worked out great. Also @Discount Tire shout out to Brandon at the Stillwater Minnesota DT for taking care of us and suggesting the 285/75r17 KO2s. I think they are the secret sauce!

I was worried with mine. I have SAS Badlands and was worried about adding Zone 3" and 37's. Also added Baja Designs 50" light Bar up above. I have 7' garage door and it fits just fine with room to spare. OEM antenna does slide across header and bottom of garage door but just slightly. I kept antenna because I like it and want max reception.

I guess tomorrow I gotta bust out the tape measure for mine. Do you know what total height is on your monster?

I tell you, if you build it even close to this, It is so much FUN!! You get lots of rubber neckers, looking at you.
Yes I did use a tailgate reinforcement, 21 FORD Bronco Tailgate reinforcement (bayareametalfab.com) is what I installed.

Good luck with your build!

I did add their brake light relocation bracket and it clears the tire with no problem.

Got some new sneakers.

Was looking for no flash, just clean matte black.

I really like this look. I'm looking to do the same thing. Are you happy with the poke? It's hard to tell exactly from this angle but how much do your tires stick out beyond the flares? Are you running 3.73 or 4.27? Any issues as a result?

Thanks to @Discount Tire for special ordering them (and price matching) and coordinating with my local store for install. I was in and out in about an hour.

I think the bronco gods approved. Took the last pic on the way home.
