TBH, running JDM wheels is great and all, but it's a flex. I've been waiting for 6 months for TE's with no ship date in sight as of rn.
And I agree with the face looking different with a +15 offset.
It all depends on the vibe you're going for. I love me some Methods and KMC's but also...
Thanks for the kind words
More Bay Area Bronco Buddies = More Fun!
I notice you have "996" in your handle, do you have a 911? My other horse is a 997 C2S
What's good boys and girls?!
Looks like people are slowly getting their Broncos
I'm thinking of throwing a morning coffee meet at the shop one of these Saturdays. Would May or June work best for you?
Lemme know below
Would love for the community to get together and have a shop you can call...
Sorry for being MIA!
At this moment, I don't think there's a JDM wheel that DOES NOT stick past the SAS Fenders.
I'm currently running Rotiforms on mine and it sits perfectly flush with the tiniest of poke at 17x9 et0
The Gramlights (similar to my TE37's on the way) stick out quite a bit...
To further add, if youāre gonna buy a hardtop get it new. someone on the general forums pieced one together from their local ford parts dept. for about $10k
Iām holding out to see what other aftermarket solutions come through before spending that kind of dough
16" Stock steelies vs. 17" Rotiform STL vs. 16" Fifteen52 Turbomac
Here's a few pics from when @titleistforged dropped by for an alignment. I wanted to see how aftermarket steelies look in comparison to the stock.
I do miss the gramlights but overall, for my build the Rotiforms suits the theme...
Lol who here is selling their freebie hammock for a $100 on CL?

Unfortunately these will be mil-spec looking wheels š
Been a big fan of Defenders growing up but I realized that itās unrealistic to drive a tractor as a daily
Which is why Iām in love with the Bronco. It checks off all the classic boxy truck boxes (lol) with modern amenities + affordability...
@titleistforged
These are gonna be 17x9 et0
The gramlights are 17x8.5 et-12 I think
Sooo in mind they should equal out in terms of poke.
However the sidewall will be more square because itās half an inch wider. Rn the sidewall is bulbous
