I’m in Louisiana and we’ve always bought our vehicles out of state. Most commonly Texas. We always pay sales tax at the dealer, but we’re paying Louisiana sales tax not Texas. We never even go the DMV. Paying taxes and registration at the dealer is normal. Just make sure your paying Arkansas...
The positive offset will give you best chance of clearing. Although, I don't know that it matters either way; I've seen several people in various wheel/tire threads with 33s and aftermarket wheels having no problems with regards to rubbing.
Man both of those vehicles look great. Can you drop the wheel and tire specs for the Bronco? I'm trying to decide what wheel/tire combo I'm gonna run on mine.
Just got one as well. Never expected to get one of these.
Edit: Also, the QR code links to this: https://qrco.de/bc5UaV but it doesn't work for me. YouTube says it's private.
Shouldn't be a problem at all. We always buy vehicles in our neighbor Texas because they're always cheaper. Never even had a dealer mention that the car wasn't purchased there. We even have our Lincoln serviced by a Ford only dealer. A warranty is a warranty they really don't care.
I daily drive an 18 year old F150, my dad drives a 21 year old F250. I have no worries about longevity.
How often do you see 20+ year old FCA product rolling around?
No. It is just a materials problem.
Ford doesn't build the tops, they get them from a supplier. I'm sure they weren't planning to get as many orders with painted tops as they received (it was already late availability). So they decided to just push it back to 22.
Don't get yourself worked up...
I'm gonna be honest, the fastback top doesn't look right. It's too fastback if you get my drift. I understand beggars can't be choosers, that's just my opinion.
