If you push those wheels way out they will definitely rub with 35's. you will need to trim plastic for sure.

A 4 door badlands can take 35’s with -0 wheels correct? I’m specifically talking about the fifteen52 wheels.

So what I got from that is if you have the Sasquatch Pkg, don't muck with it until high clearance fender (not flares) become available if you intended to drive on the trails

Well you can get shocks if you want to jump up to 37''s

I have zero offset fuel wheels on 33's... I was pretty sure they'd be a non issue. I'm still pretty sure they will be a non issue?!!! .. haha

I would not go 0 offset on my build. you can make anything work if you mess with it enough.

According to the math geeks and the plant worker helping them.... The upper control arm is what will cause issues and that is only with tires over 285 in width. Wider than 285 tires require the +30 offset or less to get them pushed out and away. This is proven out by the specs of the factory wheels.
Their best guess for height is 34" SHOULDN'T require major mods , possibly removal of the crash bars.

First off thanks for the video.. But I feel like it was labeled wrong. When you say what size tires can I fit? (For me it's on a Big Bend). I want to know if 285's or 295's will fit? Can I get them to work just fine with maybe a different offset to the wheels?

Edit: Some B6G members have already stated that a 33.2" tire should fit on Base up to OBX basically. But that's with all kinds of fancy math. Looking for that simple answer, "33 with a 0 or +35 offset will fit all day long" Something like that anyways.

Maybe thread should've been titled "What will you need to go to 35's or 37's"

How much messing will I need to do? I have the fifteen52 -0 wheels ordered and 35” ridge grapplers.

Also, while you're here.... 2" spacer lift kit in the coilover mounts is going to be a thing right? Allowing me to retain my Badlands stock BilStein's?

the Bilsteins won't take a level lift without binding up the CV's at full droop....

That's kind of what I saw in there... Well I missed the +30 offset.

I see a lot of wheels right now at 0 offset. Lead me to believe a set of 295's (33.3") will stick out that much further, but should be OK for a stock BB.

I'm just looking for confirmation from someone who has had access to a Bronco and maybe tried it already.

Well then I guess someone needs to get started on some portal spindles.

But won't adding longer shocks lift the vehicle like adding a spacer without the travel advantage & draw the lower control arms in closer?
I want to stay with the Horseshoe (Sasq) wheels which are 30 BS on an 8.5" rim. Sounds like it would be a problem rubbing. 4WP has that Black Bronco on 37's & Sasquatch wheels. Anything you can share from that?
Thanks

I guess this explains it The extra travel keeps it from binding.

What about the Broncos with the other shocks?

 

[Tdifonzo]

Are the Bilstein Broncos already level? Haha
