Base Model Bronco Thread

What is a reasonable price for a set of Badlands Wildtrack 35” wheels and tires? A guy locally wants $2500 for the set of 5 with TPMS installed. And the bigger question is would my base 2dr manual 2.3 safely accept them?

Seems hi to me

Picked mine up today. Dealer threw in the running boards (Customer satisfaction cash) and installed the JCR Baja bar...

I'm not normally a fan of black but that looks really good

Sounds fair to me, the wheels alone expensive, tires that size run around $350+ each, TPMS are an added bonus. They will fit but the crash bars up front need to be removed. For that reason I will only go up to 33's.

I found some 33’s K02 and wheels off a badlands for $1k, I’m going that route.

Badlands sasquatch I believe have the same wheels as every models sasquatch package, then there's the Wildtrak wheels (basically sas wheels) which have the beauty rings painted black (and maybe a dull black finish). So for the guys powder coating the rings, maybe worth $100-$150 more. The last set of Sas (5 wheels/TPMS) I saw listed locally were asking $1800 they were new take offs and the ad was 2 weeks old.
As more people get there Broncos prices will go down. I've seen the Base/BB/OBX takeoffs selling for the same price as the tires alone +mount/balance. I think today $1800 isn't out of line and in a year take offs "sets", will sell for the same cost as a set of tires alone. IMO.

Someone on B6g called it “Fancy Black” - After seeing AMB several times in real life, I think that’s a good description. It usually looks black, but sometimes you see the blue or you see the blue flake when you get up close and personal with it!

I'm pretty dead set on ordering my base 2 door manual, I'm just worried about the wait. Is it really going to take that much longer than sucking it up and getting a 4 door softie?

Less parts, faster build.

My base 2 door sas manual build is scheduled 3/7, and i see lots 2 doors lately too. Just stay away from 2.7 and you're good

Get what u want, but if you haven't ordered yet, any vehical wil be a while

I ordered 3 weeks ago and had my 3/7 build date within days. I bought the spec that no one wants though... base 2.3 manual with literally nothing except the aux switches, in eruption green. All my buddies who ordered last summer and are still waiting are pissed, lol

Consider waiting for a nice sale from Discount Tire or some other online tire shop. I got my Cooper AT 32" tires for $75 each after the rebates.

Not sure what's available in Bronco bolt patter wheels and size so far, but you should be able to do significantly better than $2500 by shopping around. (Unless prices have changed drastically, I got my tires a couple years ago.)

For gearing, I think your base came with 4.46 diffs, which should be ok for 35" tires. Maybe someday you will want to install a mild 1" puck lift.

Edit: just saw you got a good deal on Badlands tires/wheels, nice
