FYI, next set could/will be 255/85-17 (35's) or 285/75-17 ..... far outside chance of 315's or 35x12.5's.
Hope to add some lift as well, no more than 2". (twss)
No lift needed ... unless you will offroad it or just want the look.
Once upon a time, I ran 35 x 11.5 toyos on my base Base with +35mm Methods ( same as Ford Performance Methods they offer)
Zero issues on the street...
Yeah, we're being overrun with the good folks from Illi-noise over here, just to the east of Chi-Raq.
You can spot them living in the fast lane ... going slowly. HA!!
I haven't heard much lately about those handful of counties that want to secede from Illinios to become Hoosiers. LOL!
I remember going WEEKS sometimes between ASS events.
Now that I see the list, I realize "defrost" is my default choice for the HVAC, which apparently eliminates ASS events.

Meaning:
Overnights of below zero/single digits and highs just reaching the teens (F) (-18*C to 7.2*C) .... the few times I...
This has been the pricing battle since day one.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm Base proud, not really much into the "model pride", but when I had that Badlands for 9 months ..... I LOVED having a "Badlands" in the driveway.
That kind of shocked me.
In the end , I still kept the 2dr ..... they...
I towed a 3000lb boat & trailer with a 2.3 auto (4dr Badlands), it pulled it beautifully. That auto transmission is magic.
That being said, if I were to get a Bronco in lieu of a truck, that boat being at the upper end of its tow ratings, I'd get a V6 just for the added grins.
I towed the...
The only times I hit my head getting in a car is after my (shorter) wife or daughter drive them and leave the seat so far forward and up .... but the contact is pretty much at the top of the jamb.
LOL, being 5-9 , I have no idea about those kinds of troubles!!!! ... but I can totally see that...
Yeah, reposting that type of deleted info is what prompted them to fire one across my bow ... a "stop the BS' type note.
I have too much time under my belt here to walk away from a great group of fellow enthusiasts.
