Post Pictures of Your Aftermarket Wheels Thread

I always paid around 50-75 bucks each for these steel rims for my winter tires. In this case the price had gone up to $150 per. Ouch. Afterwards I was at Costco and noticed they had a nice selection of very fancy rims for $219 each. For a little more I could have had some fancy winter rims...

I have purchased winter wheels on clearance from TireRack (cast aluminum) for less than $100 ea. Probably a little more now than it was then, but they were only $10-15 more than steel wheels.

Here's a picture of the chrome Verde mags (18") on my '23 OBX. These are the factory tires; The factory wheels get snow tires mounted for winter driving.

Fuel Zephyr 17x8.5 5x4.25 part# D63417853357 245/65-17 BFG ATTAKO2 ...no lift. no rub.

Absolutely love it! I know you said no rub but wondering if you have gone off road or on any two track back roads? Wondering if they bottom out on uneven terrain.

245/65/17 (29.5") will not rub, with or without a lift. A lift does not help the primary rub condition of the Bronco Sport because it is at the back/bottom of the front wheel wells on a pinch weld flange. The rub happens when turned and compressed. A lift will change how compressed the suspension will be when it rubs but that is all. A Ø29.5" tire will not touch that pinch weld flange no matter the steering angle or suspension compression, with basically stock wheel specs (primarily offset).

Thanks!

Hey! I sold my Bronco Sport. I saved the tires and wheels. They are for sale. Respond if anyone is interested. $1500 for all five plus you pay shipping. I work for an LTL company so I can get them shipped anywhere. I'm in the Seattle -Tacoma area if you want to get them locally. They have around 4000 miles on them.

Looks good, Christian! It's good to see another KBrown Sport owner here who's "gone Bronze" with their rims. It's a natural combo! Here's mine, with its snow tires and rims:

I dont like you. I wanted the Smoke Bronze. They discontinued it for 2023. I was pissed. Then spent days driving todealers looking for Bronco Sports in different colors. When I saw the Hot pepper Red TC in person I was sold. Your BS Looks sweet.

New RTX wheels and Nokian Outpost AT’s - 235 65 R17

Are those available in Gloss Black. I like the Subaru Wilderness wheels and these are pretty close.

 

[Spartan007]

I think it looks better with the wheel spacers. What do you think?

Did you paint or powder coat your rims?

See my post about these wheels here.

I like the look of these wheels, but I'm not a big fan of large logos--seems like free advertisement for the manufacturer.
