FYI - I've been in contact with Detroit Steel Wheel. detroitsteelwheel.com

"Sales - Will you be making wheels for the new Bronco?
Iām getting a Big Bend, 17āx 7.5ā wheel, 55mm offset. I think the bore is 93.1 mm.
I know itās a big offset. Iām looking for something close. And I really...
Get the auto. Buy the vehicle that you'll need for years down the road, not the one that you want for now.
I wanted a stick when I bought my 2001 corvette. Now 20 years later, I'm glad I bought the auto.
Exactly! If you're old or need a vehicle now, get the 2021. Us old people can't sit around waiting - missing a year of Bronco driving is huge - who knows how long we'll be able to enjoy a Bronco or even if we'll be able to drive a Bronco next year.
I think that most dealers will take advantage of being able to sell 20% of their allocation from their lots. Especially those dealers selling below MSRP to those making reservations. They will easily sell Broncos from their lots for more $ than MSRP.
We've been thinking that we move up in line...
I might be happy if I had a Bronco by now. I expected July 2020 res, September 2020 order, and Bronco delivery by now. Didn't happen. Don't know if/when I'll get one.
Need a Bronco to replace my corvette, since I can't get in and out of it like I used to.
But the wait is killing me. I want something by this summer. So I might get a Jeep now. Drive it until August and then decide whether or not to order a 22 Bronco.
Lots of waves out there. Corvettes for at least the last 20 years. Jeeps. And Iāll occasionally get waves from fellow F-150ās, snowplows, mailmen, ups drivers, tractors and other work machinery when Iām driving my F-150. So I think a Bronco wave is appropriate.
Yes just taller. I don't want to increase width. I don't want add'l width to cause possible rubbing issues.
I was looking at the Toyo Open Country AT3. in 255/80/17. It's 33", but it is an E class tire. Weighs 50 lbs. 16.3/32 tread depth
Also looking at Bridgestone KO2's 255/75/17 45.5 lbs...
It's not only tire size - it's tread too. I just put 32" Ko2's on my F150, replacing the 32" AS tires. The more aggressive tread made a world of difference in appearance.
I plan on getting a BB and replacing the tires with a more aggressive tread tire, maybe going with 33's, but the same width...
A little bit of both, but mostly sarcastic. If I don't like where the front bracket goes, I won't put it on. Getting a 22 will give us some good looks at 21's so that we will know how to handle the situation when our Broncos come in.
I'm ok without having a front plate even though required in...
I wonāt back out based solely on the license plate location. But coupled with other snafus, delays, and late availabilities sure gets a person looking at other options.
