37s on a 2 door Sasquatch. Good or bad idea?

[BroncoIA]

I need the community's help. My 2dr Base sasquatch is being built now. I want it to be somewhat unique in the soon to be sea of Broncos. My offroad use is light. There is no rockcrawling to be done within hundreds of miles. Dirt, gravel and exploring mainly. So 37s are definitely not needed. But I love the look. Will not be my primary vehicle. Try to talk me out of it if you wish. I am open minded.

Secondly if you are in the 37s camp, what would you do for a lift to accommodate the 37s? (looking at KO2s and Wildpeaks which are both more like a 36.5")
-1" level
-Icon 3/2 https://www.iconvehicledynamics.com/accessory/17743/icon-accessories-21-up-bronco-3-c-o-spacer-kit/
-Zone 3/2 https://zoneoffroad.com/products/3-...-sasquatch-only-2-door?variant=39803747205208
-RPG Perch Colars 2.25/1.25" https://www.rpgoffroad.com/product/bronco-spring-perch-collar/

Any other option I am missing? I gravitate towards the RPG since this is a slightly less lift and lower cost. But my suspension knowledge is limited. Help me out. Thanks!

King suspension would be amazing but much higher cost and more than I need for my use. At least I think so. I am looking to just lift off of the stock Sasquatch suspension. So were any of those Broncos at your dealer with 37s 2 doors?

I am by no means an expert. Just a guy who reads a lot. I would find a respected 4x4 shop and ask them what else that they would upgrade. Perhaps a small leveling lift to give the front tires some extra room. Wheel offsets are important as well.

I will tell you, I saw a WT on 37s, mostly highway use, the owner had a 1 inch leveling kit and 37 KO2s. Looked good and no rubbing, but he had not flex, mostly road use. No picture, unfortunately. I have a BL, SAS, and looks proportional. I was thinking about 37s, but concluded with no regrets to stay with 35s on 2door. If I had 4dr, 37s for sure. My Bronco for reference.

*** found the picture of the 2 door on 37s, w/1inch leveling kit.

Your BL looks great! I should be happy with the stock look but I am wanting my Basesquatch to be just a little more unique.

Put real 35" tires on it and call it good.

Clean Rig!

You have a good point. Since I already plan on different tires regardless, a 1” level and true 35s may be the sensible way to go.

Why stop at 37s, when 40s are calling your name?

No one is going to be set apart with 37s, and they look overstuffed in the 2 door (not terrible on the four door), those 40"s make it look almost comical. If you want to set yours apart, I wouldn't be spending it on wheels and tires like everyone else. If you were a weekend rockcrawler and purpose building it, fine, but just throwing 37s on to have 37s screams poser.

It does indeed scream poser but it looks sooo good 40s definitely too much for me though.

Some things that I am considering and will give it uniqueness- some type of stripe to breakup solid color- possibly hood decal, lights on the front bumper- modular deletes the fog lights- Baja design has nice set of three pocket lights. Not big things, but May have it standout. Good luck with your Bronco!

I also have a 2 dr base Squatch scheduled for production, and would like to run 37’s. I’m thinking no lift, and running ADV fiberglass fenders whenever the full set comes out for the 2 door. I’m thinking that will give the clearance I need, and I’m not a fan of the factory flares.
