20mm wheel spacers installed

[Quashish]

Rubbed on my heritage edition with 245/65/17 nitto ridge grapplers and 20mm titan spacers. They looked great, though.

What wheels are those though? What's the offset?

Factory heritage wheels. Don’t know the offset.

It's a Big Bend...I think they are +55

I'm seeing 37.5 for most bronco sport. Not sure if the heritage are different.

I had my badlands wheels off today I could have looked

Easy for me to look, since I’m not currently running them. It is 37.5.

@Trotter75 @Quashish
Forget my earlier comments. I measured my spacers. They are 38mm wide. No wonder I have so muck poke.

That makes more sence. Looks good though with that amount of poke

It does look good. I'm just wanting to go about an inch on mine after I put the fender flares on, but hate to run into a running issue.

Thank you for the response. I'm currently running 245/65/17 nittos and a little worried about them rubbing if I add spacers,.

Trotter:

Sorry for the delayed response. My understanding is that 245s with 20 mm wheel spacers will rub, so I stayed at 235s.

My understanding is if you want to avoid damage, you have the option of 235's with spacers or 245's without.

I love the look of the 245's. But especially with the Falken Wildpeak AT4s, you are looking at extra weight per tire without a capability boost.

Of course, it's your car, man, so do whatever you want to do, but from a logical argument, I think there are a lot more reasons to stay at 235 vs. 245.

Happy Trails no matter which way you go!

You get a very slight boost in capability. The 245 has a taller (.3") sidewall and a beefier structure. The enhanced structure means it can carry more weight, and the taller sidewall offers more ground clearance and better protection of the rim when driving off road.

When I purchased my BB the first thing I knew was it needed different wheels and bigger tires. Being such a new vehicle the wheel options were short and out of stocks were normal because of supply issues. I like the wheels I got but they were fourth or 5th on my want list. Everything was backordered for like 6 months I couldn't wait. I settled for a 7.5" rim with 35mm offset. I don't want my tires sticking way out but wanted just a little more. Before buying new rims I picked up some 20mm(3/4") hub centric spacers. I drove my BB for a week with spacers and stock 18" 225 tires. Looked way better but it improved the handling tremendously. With my other wheels and 245's it's awesome. I may see if I can find a real lightweight wheel I like since I plan on no hardcore wheeling and get rid of the spacers. I would now be looking for a 8-9" wide wheel with a 30 mm offset which should put about where I'm at without the spacers.

What’s your brother! I believe I’m going to run the same spacer you are it looks great.

I was just curious as to what your front bumper mods are? I love the skid plate on the bottom curious where I could find one myself.

Thanks, a lot!

I'm not dakman, but it looks like this for the front skid: 2021-2024 Ford Bronco Sport Base/Big Bend/Outer Banks Skid Guard [FO-R – Rally Innovations
Also looks like this for the rally light bar: 2021-2024 Ford Bronco Sport Base/Big Bend/Outer Banks Rally Light Bar – Rally Innovations
Cheers!
