So, I wanted to get some opinions here before I do something crazy.
I have a 22 Big Bend (4dr, non-sas, 13k miles). Overall I really enjoy the vehicle, outside of the soft top. So, I’ve planned on snagging something aftermarket (waitlist for the turn off-road one, but considering options)...
FWIW, I'm not an expert so I'm happy to be corrected here :) . Offset is a wheel-specific thing, so obviously that depends on the wheel you use. To get a wider stance and simulate more offset without changing the wheels, then yea you'd likely need spacers (I don't actually know much about the...
I think that's pretty accurate. I used https://www.willtheyfit.com/ to compare the BD steel rims with the RTR's and 285/70/17 tires I have. Main changes for me were 25mm offset difference and 1.5" wheel width difference.
You could probably just compare to the stock OBX wheels.
Generally...
22 Big Bend, non-sas, stock suspension. I had been running the BD steelies with 285/70/17 Falken WP At3's, but just upgrade to the RTR Evos at 30mm offset. Install was this morning, and it's looks even better in person! I think I'll need to clean up these tires tomorrow haha!
I lied.. here's some quick pics. I don't have a ton of room to get a good side shot for you and the garage is a mess.. hopefully it'll hold you over. It also looks much better in person I promise!
@mbc15 I tried to include a few shots showing the crashbars, and also what the poke looks like...
I should also add - Discount Tire did all the work (I purchased the tires there and later had the wheels swapped). Make sure you get new spline lugs for the RTR wheels. The OEM ones fit, but it's snug and a small chance an installer could damage the wheels during installation.
I just installed the RTR Tech 6's (17x9 30mm offset) on my Big Bend (non sas). I have Falken Wildpeak AT3's at 285/70/17. I have plenty of clearance, no rub etc (crash bars still installed).
IIRC, the OBX and BB should have the same fitments. I don't think you'll encounter issues at all...
I swapped out the wheels and tires that came with my 2022 Ford Bronco Big Bend (non sasquatch).
Four tires have 3,100 miles and the spare has never been used. No plugs, patches etc. I swapped to a more aggressive tread. Wheels/Tires/TPMS all included.
Tires: Bridgestone Dueler AT -...
I ended up swapping the Black Diamond Steelies and Wildpeaks (285/70/17) on my non-sas Big Bend today. I'm currently blacking out the center caps, so that's still to be added on shortly.
I was back-and-forth for a while about jumping to 285/75 or 315/70, leveling, lifts etc however I realized...
Just wanted to circle back on this - I ended up going with the following:
Wheels - BD Steelies Take Offs
Tires - Cooper DISCOVERER RUGGED TREK 285 /70R17 "116T"
The tires should be arriving soon and I'll post some pictures shortly after.
After thinking it through, and how I used the...
That’s the other layer to this. If I go 285/75/17 there are fewer choices and I’ll likely get a C rated Toyo. 285/70s give a few more options in SL which is appealing. Just trying to narrow down the choices and try to avoid building myself into a corner
Ok, I promise I have exhausted the threads as much as possible but I wanted to post just in case I’m mistaken.
I have a 4dr non-sas big bend with stock 255/75/17 duelers that absolutely need to go.
I have the stock rims, but I also have the black diamond Steelies ready to go.
I’m mostly...
Hey All - Newbie here with a random question. I've been considering purchasing some sasquatch takeoffs for my stock non-sas Big Bend. Any idea if I can fit (5) of these in the cargo area of a Bronco? I'm a classic overthinker and just trying to make sure I don't drive 3 hours to end up stuck :)
