Changed out Wildtrak factory wheels with Fuel Rebel 17x9 -12 offset

[Roost]

Replaced stock wheels with Fuel Rebel 17x9 and -12 offset on stock 2023 Wildtrak/Squatch suspension and stock 315/70/17 tires. The half inch wider rim + the -12mm offset gave it a wider stance, and in my opinion, it is more stable on the road. No rubbing and no cutting. Just sharing as I could not find much info on this set up.

Looks amazing! We have been confused about the negative off set, as I would like a little wider stance. This looks like the way to go! We do not want 37's and want to stay with 35's. We do go offroad, but it is also our daily driver's.

We are not, it is the cost of upgrading the Bronco's to safely have 37's. We have priced all of the upgrades and if we want 37's we would just get Raptor's, but we can't afford them at this point, we have a 22 mustang GT that we cannot get what we owe on it, and we have 10k in suspension upgrades on her. So until we sell the stang, we are stuck with our Bronco's with 35's.

That is a fine looking wheel.

Missy, I find the stock suspension on my Wildtrak/Sasquatch amazing for how I off road (no gnarly rock crawling). So for me it made sense just to widen the stance a bit - and I have no rubbing/cutting issues. If you search “wheel offset”, there is good info out there on how it works. Good luck!

By all means, the factory sasquatch stance and suspension works really well.

My plan was to go to 37's eventually, and needed tires. couldnt fathom dropping thousands on tires that i may swap within 12 months.
