Thank you for all of your info, did you have to recalibrate the speedometer switching to the smaller wheel and bigger tires? Thanks againHello fellow Bronco lovers.
Yesterday we removed the stock wheels from our Outer Banks and replaced with BFGoodrich KO2 235/65/17 and RWC rims. The transformation was unbelievable and really this is the way they should come out of the factory. If you are searching for new rims and were told there are no after market rims available, like we were, well there are many. I searched for wheel size and not for particular vehicle.
The rims specs for the Bronco Sport Outer Banks are as follows:
Center hub 63.4
Bolt pattern 5x108mm same as 5x 4.25
Offset 37.5 to 50
I chose a 40 offset because we did not want to stray far from the factory offset of 37.5.
We had zero issues of rubbing with the wider tire and they were installed at reputable tire center and they actually said the replacement was extremely easy.
As for the KO2's there is a slight hum from the road noise in the cabin, well worth it for the look. We have not test off road yet but speaking with all my pals that have them, they absolutely love them.
We have also added the Ford accessory cross bars (if you have Base, Big Bend or Outer Banks do not order "off road" version they will not fit) and a Thule basket. Next is the Rough County 1.5in leveling kit.

Seems like the speedo is correct.
Switched out the stock 18” wheels and tires on my OB and put on FALKEN 235/65R17 WILDPEAK A/T3W BSW 104H tires on 17” KMC wheels. Even took one of the stock tires and put it where the mini spare tire was.
Here are Before and after pictures:
