This morning's chuckle:

I've read somewhere on this forum that if I wanted to purchase Steelies (Badlands)rims, that Ford was charging silly money. I was at the Ford dealer yesterday getting my wife's car serviced and asked the parts guy to look up some prices. Steelies come in around $1000.00 each! 17" black or grey Big Bend style rims are > $700.00.

I found this quite humorous.
I have a quote at home for those exact wheels from Gallenger Ford (Milton ON). $6400 CAD taxes in!!!!! F*****g ridiculous. I have been selling wheels and tires every day for 12 years and not a single cast wheel has ever come even close to that kind of money. I could have a fully forged modular 2 or 3 piece fully custom wheel set for that kind of cash.

I’m guessing you could find 5 people on here well to trade you their spares for the real rims. Problem solved!

I have a 2021 Black Base Model, and picked up a set last Summer on eBay for a fraction of what I was also quoted at the time by my dealership. There’s actually a set or two on eBay now -

And my earlier thread, for those interested -

That link to Ebay is a bit mysterious: "Bronco Sport Sasquatch" wheels removed from an OEM Escape? Things that make you go hmmmmm.

I have the dark gray wheels and the tire shop scored them some. They owe me two wheels. Dealer quoted 1195$ a piece and there’s none to buy in the country

Well I currently have the wheels shown with BFG KO2 245/65/17s.

I ordered a BL with the OEM Steelies and 235s. Now not sure what to do?..
