Struggling to find wheels

[Legacy40k]

I'm having a hard time finding wheels for the factory Off Road AT Tires. The 235/65 R17 seems to be a common size for cars - but finding an off road looking rim (in a copper or Bronze colour) has been a challenge. It seems the width is the main issue? I'm not sure how much flexibility you have in rim width for the tires. Does anybody have any suggestions for wheels that will fit?

I have the fake steelies on my winter tires right now, and want something to put the factory tires back onto.

Unfortunately living in Canada means I don't have access to US retailers (especially without shipping costs).

The Sparco Terra would be perfect, but they have replaced the bronze with gold and I can't find old stock anywhere.

Something cheaper than Sparco would have been nice but doesn't seem to exist in a bronze colour.

Check with @Discount Tire for wheel options. They were extremely helpful when I was looking for wheels for my OBX

I have bronze fifteen 52 metrix wheels that fit the factory tire size.

Maybe an option for you: https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/olive-meanderthal’s-bs-bl.7483/post-132813

I have 16" but they also have 17".

I'm a big fan of Tire Rack. Their detailed info on tire and wheel rim weights, rim offsets and widths, and customer survey numerical summaries, has been key in helping me select my custom suite of winter and summer tires/rims. For winter, I have Motegi MR147 bronze/gold 17x8's and Cooper Evolution SL 235's; for summer, Sparco DRS Rally dark bronze 17x7.5's and Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra 235's.

I worked with Discount Tire over the phone when I bought my fifteen52s and I must say they were awesome with recommendations, product availability and customer service.

My wife and I have been using them for years for most of our cars unless we had a niche need like track tires for my frs or SRT4.

No worries!

Are you guys going to get the fifteen52 holeshots in? I wanted to get them for my wife's GLI.

I wonder if @Legacy40k will ever come back to this thread?

I never left.

@ohiooutdoors, absolutely Discount Tire sells the Fifteen52 series wheels.
