I took delivery of my Bronco about 4 weeks ago and racked up 1000 miles so far, I have nothing but smiles with this vehicle. I went with the 2" Spacer Kit from Rough Country. Once BDS releases their new Coil-over kit I'll be making the switch to them. The ride quality did not change at all when I went to the 2" Spacer Kit, did need an alignment like all other suspension altercations.
It was a 3 hour job, grabbed some pizza and hung out with the mechanics while I waited. Next, which is an issue everyone is having, tires. I originally went with 35x12.5r17 Ridge Grapplers, but they're on a 4 month back order right now. I called up a buddy of mine at Discount Tire and he told me about these Pathfinder ATs he had in stock, which are a Discount Tire brand. I was skeptical, especially because I have never heard of this brand. Well... I am not disappointed with them at all, they performed excellent in the rain and snow Michigan just received, especially this slushy stuff... Now, long term, I'm not sure - I'll do my best to update everyone, but I probably wont remember
Onto the wheels and I went with a cheaper set of wheels on purpose. I really liked the style and didn't want to dish out the extra cash for Fuels, but they're really nice. I might upgrade in the future - for now, I love the current look. They're 17x9 with 0 offset, the factory lugs actually fit, but I do have a set on the way that are black.
Once we get some decent looking weather, I'll update with better photos. I wish I took before and after photos, but I was so pumped, I honestly forgot. So I took our Big Bend mannequin unit and just drove it next to mine. I was honestly shocked, I totally forgot that it sat that low - then I put it next to our WildTrak mannequin unit, and was even more impressed.
