Icon rebound wheels offsets

[ZackDanger]

In regards to the 0 offset:

Ryan at 4wp says 0 offset rub, and somewhere around +30 is the sweet spot, and seemed to have the math and science to back it up.

Loren Healy says the 0 offset hit the fender when you bottom out but likes the 0 for anything up to a 35 anyway, and seemed to just be sending it.

With that, if I were OP I’d choose the +25.

Maybe this thread won't get deleted/lost:

per tiresize.com wheel calculator.
Using what I can gather from the Stig shots of the wheels and assuming the Base wheel is the same Ranger wheel, which has been stated elswhere.

16 x 7 = 55mm offset = 6.17" Backspace (Base)
17&18 x 7.5 = 55mm = 6.42" backspace (BB, BD & OBX)
17 x 8 = 55mm offset = 6.67" backspace (Badlands)
17 x 8.5 = 30mm off = 5.93" backspace (Squatch)

4wp bronco runs a 8'" wide wheel with 37s. They prob did this to reduce the scrub radius. I bet a 37 tire on 8.5" wide wheel would rub even at 30 offset

+25mm is closer to the factory offset. Your tire choice is larger than the factory Wildtrak tires. The combination of those wheels and tires could possibly have rubbing issues.

The WildTrak uses the Sasquatch 315/70r17 tires which are 34 1/2" tall.
The 255/70r17 tires are 31" tall.
The tire I plan on using the 265/75r16 are 31 1/2" tall.
I should be ok.

Scrub radius is a bigger deal than people are giving credit. Particularly on road driving it’s very noticeable in the steering.

The OP was looking at 12.50-35-17's

Sorry thought he was responding to my post.
In reference to the 35’s. The 1st addition I saw had the front bumper modified by shortening the support bar to add clearance. So I would agree with the above post anything over the 315/70r17’s will be pushing it even with the Sasquatch suspension.
More lift?

Ok. I’ve decided to go for the Icon Rebounds with 25mm offset, the 5mm difference than the factory 30mm should make no difference. I’m going with 315/70/r17 tires, so same size as factory. I’m confident I’ll have no issues.

Incidentally, the Icon Rebound 25mm is the only rebound with a 93mm bore size, which is the Bronco bore size.

cheers for all the tips.

now….if only I could decide between black and titanium

go with titanium, black rims are overplayed and they make the tires look grey
