are you sure about that offset? Looks more like a -12mm and not a +1mm. It looks more dished than a +1Well boys and girls it finally arrived! 398 days later and here it is in all its glory! Reserved 07/16, built 08/02, shipped 08/03 and delivered 08/18, taken delivery 08/19.
Took the standard wheels and tires off and put on Nitto Trail Grapplers (35x12.50r17) and Fuel Covert bronze wheels (17x9) with a +1 offset. Loving the poke on them. Driving it home was a dream and there was no transport damage and drove amazing! Can’t wait to start the journey with this BADASS bronco!
Hey, man - let me know how it works off road! I'm doing some of the same things you did to yours to mine, or close enough. My napkin math looks good, but you'll have real world experience before I do!!!Well boys and girls it finally arrived! 398 days later and here it is in all its glory!

It drives amazing on road and have zero power issues. Was planning on putting the 4wp level kit on but found out it doesn’t fit. So I’m stuck with the stock suspension for now. I would let go super hard Offroad because it would hit the wheel wells if your going hard but should do really good. I’m planning on doing a trail this weekend up American fork canyon. I’m doing the forest lake trial. Has some rocks on it and is moderate in difficulty. Should be fun. I’ll take some video of it happening with the GoPro. But if you want to do 35’s I would do it in a heart beat. I know it’s expensive but the clearance and look is amazing. When the fox suspension kit comes out I plan on putting that on for my lift. I want at least 2”-2.5” so I don’t have any problems hitting the wheel wells when off-roading. Plus I’ve heard the fox suspension they are coming out with is going to be super nice and even better than the stock badlands suspensionHey, man - let me know how it works off road!

Thanks!
BTW, I'm loving it - you're making me jealous!

What was the cost on that PFF? I think that's a great idea! I have a litlte pinstriping on mine already and that would ease my troubled heart (once I get the fender polished back up).Well another update for everyone! I got the bronco fully wrapped in Paint protection film and also got all the windows tinted. I'm super happy with the results and it makes a huge difference in the looks of the vehicle. Pics above show before tint and after tint and PPF
so the PPF was about $2000. A lot of professional shops will charge you a lot more then that. My tint was $250. I had an appointment with Pro Tint in Draper and they were going to charge me $690 for my tint. PPF for them as well was almost $3500. So I saved a bunch. Had a guy who does it locally out of his home do it.What was the cost on that PFF? I think that's a great idea!

Where is @Goosesoup when I need him?
Good to know! I took the dealer paint insurance thing because it was just a tiny uplift from the 7 year warranty I took, so I might not worry about the film for a while. I might end up looking at the ceramic coatings, too. Those seem to be pretty good.so the PPF was about $2000. A lot of professional shops will charge you a lot more then that. My tint was $250.

yeah i got the paint insurance too because I plan on keeping the bronco for a long time. I'm going to put a ceramic coat over the PPF here this next week. Adds another layer of protection to the vehicle and the hydrophobic properties on it will be killer! Makes cleaning so much easierGood to know!

So much changing with cars - used to be, you just got paint and you were happy.
Anyway, that does look fantastic! And next you're in Draper, let's grab a milkshake or something!
Yeah Steam Team in Draper "Havier" does amazing work with PPF. Great detailer too. We hope to be doing window tint and PPF over the next year down in Lehi. Right now we can do anything detailing and paint correction, ceramic coatings, etc. Polished Goose LLC is uor company.What was the cost on that PFF? I think that's a great idea!

Definitely recommend the Ceramic Coating. A typical clear coat has a hardness rating of 4/10. Getting a Ceramic Coating will increase that hardness to a 7-9/10 depending on the package you buy. Good stuff and it makes your vehicle much cleaner and easier to wash.Good to know!
