32" tires: 265/75/16 (32s) BFG KO2 on Base 2 Door

[hunterg54]

Tossed on some meats today, shout out to Americas Tire who did an excellent job with great service. Was thinking also 285/75/16 and 255/85/16 tires but decided to go in between and love the way it turned out. Driving feel is overall slightly more sluggish (best I can describe) than the original 255/70 all seasons but nothing crazy. Will be looking into getting the speedometer re-calibrated, so if anyone has any suggestions on where to go for this please let me know.

I think this looks super nice

Looks great! I'm (im)patiently waiting to hear any news on my Ice Mountain EG 2DR Big Bend. Will be changing out the wheels and tires right away, as well. Waffling between tires right now. KO2s look good!

Looks good, but I wonder, did you consider a set of Black Diamond take-off wheels & tires at all? There are lots of those for sale for pretty good prices...

Good question, I did consider BD takeoffs but I like the 16 inch silver steelie. Aesthetics aside, BD takeoffs are a super cheap upgrade for the base bronco I agree.

If you know of a marketplace for bd takeoffs I'd love a lead. I wouldn't know where to look.

I would try craigslist, the member marketplace here on this forum, and facebook marketplace. I think as more and more broncos get delivered the market will become saturated with takeoffs and they will be even cheaper.

Yup, what he said. They show up here on the forum pretty regularly…

Just missed out on these…

Keep your eyes open!

Looks great to me. As others said, you can always find a set of BD takeoffs cheap if you decide to go that route. But obviously, you just spent the money for the KO2s so that decision is far off. I like that you opted for the RWLs. If you want to get fancy, then consider the Signature Edition lettering. Maxlider always chooses these on their EB builds with KO2s.

Great looking Bronco. I did exactly the same tire install last week and added stainless trim rings for just a little different look.

I love this look, something that looks so much more utilitarian, practical and more capable real world (even if it isnt) than the giant 37's and 40's we are seeing everywhere (especially on 20"+ alloys lol)

Very nice! I like how you kept the tire and size tasteful but functional. Nice work.

Nice job using something that not only “fits” but maintains drivability and performance within reason. Looks cool too! I have seen so many Jeeps with 35s that “fit” but they aren’t geared anywhere near appropriately and they completely tear up the steering and suspension. Sadly many Broncos are closely following this formula.

nothing at wrong with the Steelies I’m not a white letter guy but it looks nice with those wheels!

Thank you for your business and support! Bronco looks fantastic, great choice in tires.
