Having a hell of a time deciding on wheels...would love some input from your collective wisdom

[Tex]

Just buy some beadlock wheels and replace the ring when you want it to look pretty again.

Method wheels with Bead Grip technology.

I went with RTR wheels
They have two options that are very similar - evo & tech
both are available in a +30 offset which will fit the non sas truck very well - no lift needed but remove crash bars

Wheels can be a tough choice. Do you want a certain color, do you want wider or narrower than stock, do you want the wheels/tires to sit in the stock location or poke out for a more aggressive look, do you want wheels that are easy to clean? All of these factors can play a part in making a decision. The best thing to do is take time and look through the pictures people have posted and then get the wheel/tire specs. I had a couple of wheels picked out that I liked, but at the last minute I saw some pics with the somewhat retro look like the Mickey Thompsons (mine are Pro Comps) and decided to go that route. I'm really happy with the look, the poke, the ease to clean. So keep asking for samples and going through some of the posted pictures and you'll find what you like.

Great advice thank you! After looking through a ton of pics I really like both the Methods and the Icons referenced in this thread (and grew to hate the black rhinos...so I'm glad I came to that before spending a ton of money).

Your wheels look awesome! Not my style but I love the look of yours

Though the Rebound wheel you linked to won't fit your Bronco, they are a better look out of the two. Plus, easier to clean as well...

I second this. Super easy to clean. Dirty here but they also look great.

I chose the 18x9, 0 offset Icon Rebound's in Bronze. Icon makes high quality stuff and these look great IMO.

I did pretty much the same. 2" level lift. RTR wheels +30mm offset (just enough poke on Non-sasquatch. Crash bars removed as well.

I have some base steelies. I'll give you a mean deal!!!!

That just looks wrong

I love this look it is the perfect amount of retro for me..

if I wasn't such a cheapo this is the route I would go.

As it is.. when (if?) my basesquatch gets out of 'in production" purgatory I will be playing around with different pasti dip color combos on the stockers to see what I like.

I actually like the stock badlands wheels a lot too.. I know you don't really like them.. but maybe just put new tires on and run it for a bit while you think about it? take some "have to decide" stress away

Love the Titanium look - is it these?

2023 Ford Bronco| Method Race Wheels MR316, 17x8.5 with 6 on 5.5 Bolt Pattern - Titanium - MR31678560800 | 4wheelparts.com

I've already decided against the Black Rhinos - never thought about all the bolts getting dirty (and looking more the Black Rhino wheels look really busy). These Methods look clean and I love that!

The MR316 is a little different than the 703. I have the MR316, but 18x9 +18 offset.

I have a the same white 2dr badlands on order and like the chrome.. ‘‘em polished aluminum, American racing has something very similar. I kind of wanting a combo black/chrome wheel and going to switch out grill for an OBX or Wildtrak grill.

Hey everyone - I'm sort of at a mental impass and I'm having trouble deciding on wheels. Have a black Badlands non-sas coming and making some immediate changes.

2" leveling kit and decided on 35" KO2s (C load rating). But as for the wheels...too many choices and this is much harder than it should be.

I'm doing an all black overlanding build (although hitting at least medium difficulty trails here in Colorado).

I was set on the black rhino warthogs

But I also really like the Icon rebound satin black


This is obviously a fairly expensive choice and I'd love some input...

Thoughts?

Everglades wheels on a black Badlands would look sexy! I'll be installing a set on my A51 (non-sas, no lift) with 315/70r17 KO2s this weekend.
