Installed Badlands Wheels on Non-SAS OBX - Photos

[Black Diamond]

Figured I would share what they look like from many angles. If you are thinking of doing this, pull the trigger. These wheels look way better than the OEM 18". The extra sidewall and the aggressive look of the K02 make it look so much better. Only thing I had to do was to relearn the new TPMS.

any rub? and was there a huge gas mileage difference? or have you had it long enough to notice yet?

Looks Great! I was going to get a set for my OBX, but I lucked into a set of Wildtrak take-offs for a killer price. Went that way instead, but BOTH are great upgrades to the OBX "pizza-cutter" wheels & tires.

I don't think there is any rub with the 33's, but I removed the front crash bars when I had the Wildtrak (SAS) 35" tires & wheels mounted.

No rub and the tires are only 1" bigger than the OEM 32s so I doubt my mpg will suffer. I have the 2.7 with the optional 4.27 e-locker in the rear.

Nice looking EG! I do like those wheels too but these take offs were on the board and very local to me.

I bought 35's off this forum yesterday that I plan on doing as a future upgrade. The front crash bars will come off and I'll do a small 2" lift for them.

Thanks @Black Diamond !

One of the reasons I went with the Wildtrak take-offs is that the Goodyear Territory MT (which has middling reviews) is very light for its size. From what I've found, it's only 1lb. lighter than the 285/70/R17 BFG KO2's. Many would argue that the KO2 is a better tire, and I would be happy to run either.

Makes sense to me! My 35s are Goodyear's as well but I hear a lot about them being rock flickers. Time will tell!

I just know the gas mileage went down on my f150 when I switched to BFGs of the same size just due to the weight increase of them, so I was just curious

Haven't had them long enough to know.
