Big Bend Non-SAS with Bigger Shoes

[NC_Overland]

Learned today that a Big Bend Non-SAS can indeed run 37x12.5s with positive offset and not rub at all. I didn't really believe it until now.

How Much positive offset? What are the dimensions of the Wheel?

But what happens when you hit that unexpected pot hole or big bump that you didn’t see at any kind of speed? Articulation?

They are 17x8.5 at a +25 offset

I’ve hit many potholes, one in my gym parking lot that is a crater, probably about 8-10” deep and about 2’ wide, no problems with rubbing. I took it out on its first “outing”, which would be considered a green trail pretty much everywhere, to test it a little bit and see how the stock tie rods hold with 37s and I had no articulation or fender/liner/bumper rub. I’m sure if I went hard and was 3 wheeling or 2 wheeling I would, but the flex you get with all 4 tires in contact I had no problems with.

LED headlights with signature LED lighting option. Think it was $795

Oh ok, I see now, must be an option for the 2022

Been an option since first day reservations opened in 2020. I’ve had it optioned since first day of ordering. Can’t get it on the black diamond and I’m not sure about base, but always been an option for big bend and outer banks, and the badlands, wildtrack, FE all had in standard

do the bigger tires affect the gas mileage much? I'm considering getting a 2 door non-sas bronco and put the bigger tires on it.
