Upgrade tires only keep BB Wheels Looking at Falken Wildpeaks 285/70/17 ~ $1370
Upgrade to Everglade Wheels and Falken Tires ~ $2500

Go take-offs to start. Buy Everglades later if you still feel the urge.

At that price, the badlands takeoffs are a steal. I'd double check that they have TPMS still installed and go down that route.

I personally went with option 2 myself, as I already scratched up my big bend wheels offroad, so they were written off as a thrasher set of wheels. I would feel bad scratching up a nicer looking set of wheels.

wildpeak at3w's are amazing. have 285/70/r17s, great offroad/weather tires and ride smooth. big upgrade over the stock 32s.

note a lot of ruby owners take them off and go 35s, can be had for 1k or less for 5.

personally, not a fan of ko2s especially if you deal with weather or gravel.

Just go ahead and get the Everglades. I got a great deal on some Badlands takeoffs and thought that would do me and then Ford released the Everglades wheels.....

Yea... thats what Im afraid of...your setup looks GREAT!

If you are a fan of Everglades wheels (I am ), I highly recommend. Otherwise Badlands takeoffs are more than adequate for most offroading. Certainly worth it until if/when you decide to lift (where new wheels and tires would be even more important than looks).

My issue with Everglades, I think they weigh 35-36 pounds.

check weights on falken tires. I was gonna buy some jeep takeoff falken wildpeaks but they weighed 12# more each than Badlands takeoffs.

I went with tire upgrade only on my OBX. Chose Toyo AT3's - they perform and look great.

When my warranty is up (and the Bronco is paid) I'll probably pick up a set of Ford Performance Wheels and do the whole 35x12.5 thing. Just remember you'll have to buy the fenders and lift accordingly.

Good luck with your decision!

I upGraded my OBX to Badlands Take-offs. Very pleased with the moderate increase in tire size. Alot of highway trips, and off roading on the beach. I didnt use the KO2. Too noisey for me, and Here in SC i need a good rain tire. I went with Nitto Nomad Grappler 285/70R17. Very sure footed, quiet, and great in sand. Only you know your use, but $1,000 for a ready to go set of KO2 with TPMS is a great deal. If no TPMS, youll have to pay another $150 for switching in yours. So no TPMS, id buy a set of Badlands wheels, and put on the tires you want. . . .

Great looking set up! Love the back drop too!

Does changing tire size from factory affect the warranty?
