There's like 3 people who like the steelies.
Actual overlanders, people who drive 100s of thousands of miles over every terrain/ecosystem/country love steel wheels because they are much easier to repair. They can be banged back into shape or even welded.

Another fun fact about actual overlanders:
They rarely use tires that are bigger than 32s. They are harder to replace in remote locations and do not really offer any real benefit to offset the extra cost/weight/fuel.

I love both those rims, I really cant decide which to get. My daughter is pushing for the steelies, so probably those.
I would love to see the steelies in a photo I think we've seen all the rim packages they offer except the steelies!

I would love those steelies instead of the SAS wheels....but oh well. SASquatch is a MUST.

Glad to hear it! I hope you are right, because at least one cool thing on my Bronco won't be the same as everyone else's. ?

They are definitely not for Chick-Fil-A runs where you wait 45 minutes at the mall parking lot with your "Look at me Sasquatch Package", and then jump the curb and eat the spicy chicken sandwich on to top of the berm so everyone can see you from your own version Lion King "pride rock".

The steelies are much more like the Popeye's at the truck stop off I-94, TO GO, so you can get to the dirt road quicker and eat the BETTER spicy chicken sandwich right on the river near the fly fisherman and the old school canoes.
And don't forget the extra box of biscuits on the side for snacking later on the trail.

I also want to see BD steelies. Full side shot on a 2-door. There is one pic floating around showing the spare. It looks like it's finished in a gloss paint instead of the matte black look shown in the B&P. We need to see more of that vehicle.

I love the steelies look. Gonna get a BD and put 33s on it after the original set wears out. I actually hate the wheels that come with the sasquatch package... Give me the simple, utilitarian look.

Also I think it's hilarious that on the Bronco Sport you have to get the highest trim level and pay an extra $800 just to get wheels that LOOK like steelies but are actually aluminum. I wonder what the Bronco Sport spare looks like... Could just trade 4 guys your regular wheels for their spares.

Then they'll look like my boat trailer wheels.
