RB20 slim lines installed a couple days ago. Look good, feel solid. The slim lines seem to be nicely proportioned for the non-sas flares/tire poke on my base. There is enough room for me to put my foot on an angle stepping in. If you have a very large feet, or are not steady, Iād suggest getting...
I run a set of E-rated 255/85r16 Falken Wildpeak M/Ts at 32 PSI on my 2 door base. I had them installed upon delivery by the dealer, so no comparison to the factory tires.
I think the Bronco drives and rides nice. Itās a 4x4 truck, so heaving concrete/pavement seams or potholes are felt in the...
Just like my favorite pair of shoes (one is a cowboy boot and the other one is an adidas slide). I find that if I leave the slide in my closet, nobody knows the pair is mismatched.
Amen. Iāve never seen something so simple get so overcomplicated. And thatās really saying something on this forum, where so many have nothing to do but churn while they wait for their truck.
Why wouldnāt you take the spare off, jack the first corner, remove that tire (and cap), replace with the spare (and cap you just took off, then move along? So, all center caps stay where they are as you move wheels and tires around the vehicle one at a time.
Iām probably not saying anything novel here, but consider this a ā+1ā for the rational side of this conversationā¦
Unless you just canāt afford the up-front cost of $250ish for a fifth tire, there is no rationale for skipping it. With a set of five, 20% more cost upfront = 20% more life out of...
Falken Wildpeak MT01 255/85r16. Tallest and skinniest you can go on the 16ā steelies, as far as I know.
had that info in my originalpost but deleted a bunch out because it was basically a novelā¦š
Hard for me to compare the M/Ts with the stock tires because I only test drove it with the stock tires. The M/Ts make the ride a little choppier Iād imagine. But it feels like a truck to me. Which makes sense. It doesnāt feel sluggish but Iām sure itās a little quicker and more efficient with...
I think youāre getting minimal response because 37s are pretty large for that setup. I donāt recall seeing any threads/posts/builds configured like that.
If itās a 3:73 then itās an auto. I canāt speak to 37s. But I jumped from the base 30s to heavy m/t 33s on the heavy steelies and it drives great. Iām also interested in how it handles 37s.
Ah! Gotcha. That makes sense and I agree.
But also, all things held constant, a Bronco needs bigger tires to get the clearance needed to compete with the Jeep. Iād say a rubicon on 33s is about even with a Bronco Sasquatch on 35s. Thatās a big deal when it comes to unsprung weight and the money...
𤣠I bought a Bronco because I needed a daily driver that is good on winter roads and doubles as a summer beach/camping vehicle for my family. It seems pretty comfortable to me but Iām not coming from a Lexus sedan or anything.
From metro Detroit, which probably puts us a little ahead of the curve on Broncos already driving the roads. Trust me when I say nobody even bats an eye at a Bronco here anymore. Iāve had mine for two weeks and exactly one person has waved at me: the driver of a 4-door JL Wrangler.
