Hi - How are these tires holding up? I am very interested in them and want to take off the Goodyear MTs (non-sas optional size) that are very noisy on the highway.
In case anyone asks, I bought my Badlands because I wanted the top trim Bronco that can be had with a manual transmission. I don't...
I’m very interested in these new tires as well and want to know if they will come as non-sas badlands options like the current Goodyears do in the 32.5 size
Tire rack does sell the current Bronco specific Goodyears in 285/70 and in the Sasquatch size.
My Badlands non-sas came with the optional Goodyear MTs in 285/70R17 and I happen to like them. They are light and look aggressive. I even temporarily put on some Ko2s but swapped back to the Goodyears cause the ride quality had worsened dramatically (even with the same C load rating)
I see...
What a helpful thread. Thank you
What is your opinion if you’ve already upgraded your rear speakers to the marine grade kickers that have been suggested in other threads?
I am interested in swapping the fronts now and would like to use the suggested Hertz items from this thread.
Will they...
Cross Post: I'm in Lower Westchester and have a few spare parts that I'm looking to give away.
Badlands OEM rockrails - I pulled off for running boards

I just went back out there. The top bolt holding subwoofer in need a few more turns. Now the rattle is all gone. It had nothing to do with replacing the clips that Ford had in the TSB or perhaps the combination of the dealer performing the TSB and me tightening the bolt did it.
This bolt...
I'm loving the OEM optional Goodyears - especially if you're interested in improved ride quality.

On the highway, I think the Goodyear tread makes higher pitched whine compared to the KO2s.. Neither tire is particularly bad on the highway especially since the wind noise of the roof seems to overpower any possible tire noise. They arent worse on the highway than the KO2 just different.
At equivalent tire pressures (OEM 40 PSI), I prefer the ride quality of the Goodyears. To be specific, when hitting bumps in the road the vibrations through the cabin seem to be a much lower frequency thud rather than a higher frequency bang which to me seems like increased comfort.
Coming back to this thread.. I put 15k on the KO2s and I've put the Goodyears back on.
The ride quality is back to OEM levels, there is definitely a different noise on the highway and they do make the truck feel a tad more nimble.
In terms of gravel, my plans for the upcoming summer have...
