2021 Bronco wheels offsets and bolt pattern?

[DrewBronc21]

Any info on offset for each wheel and what the bolt pattern is? I see just the wheel widths on the spec sheet.

So far, it looks like same as new Ranger...6 x 5.5 with 55 offset. But I think the offset will be different for the wider tires....

So I noticed method lists 2021 bronco wheels for sale already. They have beadlock and simulated beadlock, for those who don’t want the beadlock’s extra maintenance. What extra maintenance will the Sasquatch wheels have?

edit: also what exactly is beadlock capable, does the wheel need optional parts or something or is it just the way tires are mounted?

I’m gathering a list of questions we are sending with the member who is doing the Ford Bronco Ride Along next week. I’ll add this to the list of poll questions to see what traction it will get from the community since they may be short on time and will only be allowed to ask a few questions.

"beadlock capable" means you have to purchase separate beadlock rings, legal to use only off-road, per DOT rules.

Great Find! This should give us 100% confidence since Method has been working with Ford. Here are the listings for Bolt Pattern and Offset. You can see this confirms the wheels match the Ranger wheels bolt pattern: 6 x 139.7mm (6 x 5.5"), not the F-150 wheels bolt pattern: 6 x 135mm (6 x 5.31").

105 Beadlock | Matte Black 17x8.5 | 5x5.5mm | 0mm/4.75 | MR10578555500B
305 | NV | Bronze 16x8 | 6x5.5 | 0/4.5" | MR30568060900

I've been tracking this since March when I did my first scale drawing that predicted the Ranger Wheels were a match, so this confirms my original scale drawing was correct.

Here was my original estimate:

Bolt Pattern:
I scaled the 255/75R17 tire images to match the above dimensions, I then measured the bolt pattern. I looked at both the F-150 and Ranger bolt patterns for reference and find the bolt pattern matches the Ranger, 6x139.7.

So I could use the Ranger steel wheels if I wanted a retro look in the models other than base? Looks like they are for sale at a few places for $100 per.

Don't know backspacing, but I'd love to see some pictures of the non squatch suspension to see how much room is between the stock wheels and the UCAs.

 

[Rigsurly]

Thanks! This is a really good find if it works

Yeah, Ima say the cyber one with the MEthod wheels isn't a 0 offset wheel like is listed.

What extra maintenance will the Sasquatch wheels have?

The bolts come loose from time to time and they loose air. With my experience with beadlocks in circle track racing, the beadlock wheels loose about 10 pounds of air per week more than a standard racing wheel.

You are probably correct as the cyber Bronco, prototype/concept has a Raptor rear end so the bolt pattern would have been for the F-150/Raptor. The production wheels are the same bolt pattern as the Ranger.

If we believe the Method webpage link, the offset and backspace are:
105 Beadlock | Matte Black 17x8.5 | 5x5.5mm 6x5.5" (6x139.7mm) | 0mm/4.75
305 | NV | Bronze 16x8 | 6x5.5" (6x139.7mm) | 0/4.5"

(I corrected an obvious typo where Method listed 5x5.5mm)

I contacted Fifteen52 regarding wheels for the Bronco. They were nice enough to inform me that the wheels on that Cactus Grey show truck are 6x139.7mm (5.5") 17x8.5 ET0. So that makes me assume that at a 0 offset (mounting surface directly in center of barrel) there is a 4.25" backspacing. Another assumption that i have made is that 4"-4.5" backspacing is going to be ideal for these trucks.
However, what i do not know, is the hub bore measurement. This will be needed for totally correct fitment or to buy hubcentric rings to adapt to the hub.

on non sqatch models it should be the same as the ranger.
