CARBONIZED GRAY Bronco Club

[Heart2]

Great looking Bronco! I am thinking about getting the BB rather than the BL because I am looking for a daily driver. The 285s look really good! It's good to know that they fit. I would even be happy with 265s (like on the BD). I'm happy for you...

CG, BB, 2.7, mid, tow, swapped out tires for the Goodyear (285/75/17)…love this thing. Would not change a thing except to eventually make some improvements to the audio (it sucks). Rides like a dream!

Looks awesome! Im thinking about drop shipping a set of 285/75/17's to my dealer for my BB when it arrives there. Did you have any fitment issues or have to remove the crash bars? Also, I see you dont have a spare with the 285 on it. Do you know if one will fit with the brake light?

I just got my wheels and tires mounted! Method Race Wheels 701's 17x8.5 0 offset with 285/70R17 BFG KO2's. A couple things to know if they haven't been said already.

Hub rings for the wheels. The hub size was not near a common as I thought it was going to be. The Bronco axle hub is 93.1mm and the wheels are 106.2mm. I found them here. Hub Rings / Spigot Rings for Wheels from USA $6.25 / pcs - HubCentric-Rings.com

TPMS are quite expensive from the dealership, about $90 a piece. I ordered 5 of these sensors, Ford Huf Intellisens TPMS Sensor F2GZ-1A189-A 315Mhz . The dealer was not able to calibrate their positions or learn them, However upon purchasing I shared my vin and they came pre calibrated. After a couple miles my Bronco picked them up and they work fine. I will need to purchase the aftermarket relearn tool to properly position the sensors.

The tires did interfere with the rear crash bars. If your mounting 33" to factory wheels, I don't thing you'll have any issues, my interference came from the 0 offset from the new wheels. It was really easy to remove the rear crash bars and I left the front ones in place.

MY CURRENT ISSUE!
If anyone knows what to do about this please let me know. The speedo is now quite off which also effects mileage and mpg. The dealer is not allowed to reprogram the tires. does anyone know how I can fix this issue?

Overall, I'm loving the look!

No issues with fit. Did not remove crash bars and no rub. My salesperson forgot to order the fifth tire. Actually drove up today to have them mount it and swap it out. It fits and clears the brake light. The service tech was careful not to over tighten the bottom lug because the wider tire does make the fit tight against the bumper that the spare mounts against. No issue though. Fits and looks fine. Really happy with that bump in size and more aggressive tread. Plan to level it eventually but not sure if I will go up in size any more at this point.

Finally found a real life photo of my exact build and I’m pumped! Carbonized gray 2dr base 2.3L manual + aux switch bar. Maybe someone else has been looking for this!

I think that's Ford's dealer CGI pic dealers post when they're in transit.

Today I drove to Irwin Ford in Laconia, NH to look at the 29 Broncos being prepared for the Off-Roadeo New Hampshire.
This was my first time looking at all the available colors side-by-side. Without a doubt, my decision to purchase a Carb Gray Bronco was reinforced. Especially when you pair it with the Carb Gray MIC top. Stunning!

I might need that black horse in the back.

I just installed the 4 Wheel Parts level lift kit (62210k) on a Carbonized Gray Outer Banks with 295/70R18 (34.2x11.7) Nitto Ridge Grapplers using the stock wheels. I knew the fitment would be tight but it worked out well with zero rubbing. I’ve also tinted the front windshield and 2 front windows. Here are a couple of photos:

Yep, that +55 offset makes it close, so the +30 should be perfect and gives an extra inch. Looks great overall.
