Big bend tire sizes -- what AT tires won’t rub??

[redHOOD830]

What’s up everyone! Just got a BS Big Bend edition today and was hoping someone can help me out on tire options. I’d like to get some all terrain tires that won’t rub. So please drop your knowledge! I appreciate it!

Probably 235/70/r17 as long as it’s not too aggressive of a tread pattern.

I believe the largest without a lift would be around 30 inches

Thanks for the insight!!

If interested Ford Authority Had an article today on Bronco Sport with bigger tires that did not rub.

I’m looking to pickup a big bend in the same spec as yours later this year. I have been looking at the KO2’s in either a 225 or 235s on the stock wheel which I think will look great. Whatever you decide to do make sure you upload some pictures!

i was thinking the same, then I came across an IG post that someone put some 245/65R17 Falken wildpeak AT3Ws

So in theory, I should be able to mount 245/60/R18 on my stock big bend wheels in the future. Plus 0.1” width compared to the post. This makes me very happy.

I would like to know as well, from what I have seen have to downsize to 17 to get more aggressive tread.

The Falken that came on our First Edition are great. So great, I ordered a set for my Ranger. They get really good reviews across the board.

No scrubbing or rubbing at all. No lift, stock height.

Look great !! What are the rims?

Driving on a flat pavement looks to be fine. What about rubbing if you have 245's and some articulation over potholes, frozen and rutted roads, and such...will it rub under those conditions? Otherwise, I may just go to 235/65R17 and no bigger.
