The Optional Badlands wheel is a 17 x 8” wheel, with 6 x 5.5” (or 6 x 139mm) with a 55mm offset and 6.66” of backspacing. Not sure about the Sasquatch wheels. Might find your answer here:

Good point. I was only worried about fitting the 12.5" tire on the 8" rim and didn't think about rubbing with the offset. Guess no one will really know we get our hands on them.
I plan on upgrading the tires on the Badlands I'm ordering and have a question. I'd like to keep the stock rims which are 8" wide. When I look at BFGoodrich's website, it says the minimum rim width is 8.5", but when I go to Discounttire.com it says 7.5" (see below). Can anyone help and answer...
I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the 4.7 rear end is only included on the BL with the manual transmission or Sasquach. OP says he is getting automatic transmission.
You can bet the price will increase. It doesn't matter what you think is fair. Ford or a Ford dealer will not hold prices on MY2022 just because you agreed with the dealer on the price for a MY2021. All you can hope to do is come to an understand with your dealer on how the price increase will...
They will fit on the Sasquatch wheels which are 8.5" wide. The Badlands wheels are 8.0" wide. Most tire manufactures recommend at least 8.5" wide wheels for 12.5" tires. I know that's true for BFGoodrich KO2 37x12.50r17lt tires.
@Carrotop79 - Have you decided what dealership you are going with? Stivers sent an email saying they would be using Signup Genius to book appointments and start converting orders. I haven't received the signup information yet. My plan is to actually talk to them about pricing. If they end up...
I appreciate your effort at heading this off, but my guess is it is about to get bad as more people start the order process. I just saw a new thread on 2 door pushing back delivery.
Ford has already stated that selecting the 2 door Bronco is something that may delay production. Not sure if a 7/17/2020 reservation is early enough to make the MY2021 or not.
The wheels on the Badlands are 8" wide. Most manufactures recommend a wheel of at least 8.5" for their 12.5" tires. For example, here are the specs for BF Goodrich T/A KO2 33x12.50R17 tires. Some tire shops won't install tires on rims that are outside the manufactures recommendations.
Interesting. Here are screenshots of the interaction I had with them this weekend. It starts with an email I received from them last Thursday. They clearly say they will honor x plan. That said, they were not very truthful in what that meant. Not sure they liked my response that included math...
