Installing 35's on Bronco Bandlands factory wheels and suspension?

[tracktor24]

Hey everyone I just got my Bronco last week, is a badlands with the suspension package, I think is HOF correct if I am wrong, not a sasquatch, but that is the question I like to add 35ish tires, just like the sasquatch, I want to maintain the original wheels for now, do I have to do any mod to add a bigger tires or the vehicle is ready to received a 35ish

I believe you just remove the crash bars and the 35s will fit with no rub. Not 100% sure. Search the forum. Thanks for your service!

Yep, you can remove the crash bars and install 10.50/35s on your stock wheels with no rub.
I don’t know about fitting a wider 35……I wanted the tall skinny tires and they fit great. I have the same Bronco as yours.

Congrats! And thank you for your service. Ive had the same question for a while now, and I have an answer! Partially. I swapped 315.70.17 Firestone MT2's on my stock Badlands yesterday, and no rubs at full lock. I have not tested under flex yet. I did pull the front crash bars.

You will need to consider tire width. By all accounts a true 35" x 12.50" tire on factory non-squatch wheel will be extremely close to rubbing the front upper control arm...a minimum 1" wheel spacer would be needed IMO. I'm running a 35" x 10.50 on the non-squatch wheels w/o spacers w/ crash bars removed with no issues at full lock/full flex. Others are running 35" x 11.50 w/o a spacer with no issue.

I just got my 2022 Badlands, stock wheels(same as OP), I did a 2" lift and installed LT315/70R17 B F Goodrich T/A KO2's. I do have very minimal rubbing on the upper control arm at full lock. Thinking maybe a 1/2" spacer would do it.. We'll see. Here's before and after pics..
