Radial IROKs please!as some others are saying, why not just pick a different tire? super swampers, for example
Sounds like ordering for the wife at Starbucks. I see I’m gonna need her help when the time comes. I mean, when I have to stop mid order and take breath, I wonder, can this process be simpler. F it, I’m gonna walk in there and just order a Bronco R.Hoping that the BFGs listed in the documentation for the Badlands is correct and stays that way.
Badlands Antimatter Blue/Roast/High package 2DR, 2.3/7SPD, lockers and 33" ATKO2s instead of 35" MTs is kind of right around what I wanted.
Cool story but I would like to see an option for a BFG All Terrain K02 tire with the Sasquatch package. The OEM Raptor tires are already in Fords offering, why not add them? I want the Sasquatch package but don't want to live everyday with a mud terrain tire. It's crazy, no matter how you're going to use your truck it will spend most of it's time on public roads we should have a choice, very disappointed in Ford for not offering an All Terrain option on the Sasquatch! We should have a choice like the 33" tires do! Anyone else feel this way? How do we start a petition?Via Motor1
Ford To Goodyear: Get 'Wrangler' Off The Bronco's Tires
July 15, 2020
Automakers are like politicians – they're loathe to acknowledge a rival. Instead, other brands and their products are “the competition,” or something similar. But in developing the 2021 Ford Bronco to beat the snot out of the Jeep Wrangler, the Blue Oval ran into an issue: one of the most popular off-road tires on the market is the Goodyear… Wrangler. Oh dear.
It just wouldn't do for Ford's most significant new product in years to feature its arch-rival's name five separate times on the exterior. After all, how silly would a Mustang look with “Camaro” all over it, or an F-150 with multiple “Ram” logos? Exactly. And that's why when the new Bronco arrives in Spring 2021, it will do so with special Goodyear tires that lack the typical Wrangler badging. But not entirely.
As we said, the Goodyear Wrangler is an extremely popular off-road tire, so while the name won't be outwardly visible on the Bronco, according to Ford, there still needs to be small Wrangler markings on the inside of the tire.
Ford confirmed this to Motor1.com, with spokesman Sam Schembari saying, “[The Wrangler name] will be removed from the Goodyear's side wall on the outboard side. Bronco Customers will not see it unless their tires are off the vehicle and the inboard side is visible.”
Why not strip the word off entirely? According to Schembari, it's because the Wrangler name is “still part of [Goodyear's] aftermarket branding.”
Yeah, I want to end up with 35" A/Ts. Although, the Terrain M/T is not super aggressive and my be okay, with no reviews, it's hard to say. They should offer an AT as an option.Cool story but I would like to see an option for a BFG All Terrain K02 tire with the Sasquatch package.

Completely agree especially if you live where there's snow - A/T is much better in snow. For the price of the Sasquatch package - it would be a shame if there wasn't an option between M/T and A/T.Yeah, I want to end up with 35" A/Ts.

Agree, I use the Toyo M143 245/70R 19.5 on my RV, damn good tires!I will end up with Toyo MTs on my truck asap. I like them much better than nay goodyears I have ever owned.
