Agree. Would like to see them with beefier tires. I think it would look better.I like the rims, I'm struggling with the tires though. Needs a beefier tread. Maybe it's just me
Definitely would have considered these 2mos ago.When you think of Kansei Wheels you may not think of a rugged off-road wheel, instead you may think of a drift car tearing up the Formula Drift circuit. Well in the past couple of years they have taken everything they have learned in motorsport and street cars, and launched their Off Road line! They adapted their wildly popular KNP and Roku for their Off Road line to bring some street style to the trails! We have been fans of Kansei street wheels for some time now, so we knew that we wanted to run a set of Off Road wheels on our Bronco, which led us to picking up a set of Roku's! These wheels not only look great, but they are lightweight and extremely durable.

The Formlite process is what truly sets Kansei wheels apart from their competition. The Formlite process applies radial pressure to the wheel's barrel section under intense heat. As the wheel casting and mandrel spin, rollers manipulate the barrel to form the shape of the back half of the wheel. This results in a thinner, lighter, and stronger back half of the wheel. The wheel's aluminum grain structure is now aligned radially, improving impact and strain resistance.
Kansei is a subsidiary brand of Raceline Wheels, so you can expect a high quality product paired with high levels of inventory! If you have any questions regarding the brand, fitment, or anything else then feel free to to reply to this thread or you can shoot me a DM!

Wheels are 17x8.5 +0, and these are the stock Big Bend tires, I believe BFG. Cant think of the exact size of the tires. Poke is minimal, but still there. And yes, I'll provide some more pictures! Sadly I won't be able to get a picture of poke until tomorrow.
TEs would look AMAZING!
This picture was taken the day we got the Bronco back to our shop after taking delivery. We have 2/5 of the tires that will be going on the Bronco, still waiting on the other 3 to come off backorder.I like the rims, I'm struggling with the tires though. Needs a beefier tread. Maybe it's just me
We absolutely love the look!
Still waiting on the tires to come off backorder
All weights are posted on Kansei's website! These wheels were not necessarily designed for the Bronco, and I believe higher offset options are in the works!
if you're using the same tires on 17x8.5 rims then your poke is 67.7mm which is over 2.5" ... these pictures dont show that !!Wheels are 17x8.5 +0, and these are the stock Big Bend tires, I believe BFG.
It does not poke 2.5", its probably somewhere around 1" or less of poke. 17x8.5 +0 has been one of the most common sizes for the Bronco thus far! This picture may show it a little better, but as I stated earlier I will not be able to get a picture straight on to show poke until tomorrow as our Bronco is at @Diode Dynamics this week for R&D!
The Bridgestone's do have a slight "stretch" (if you want to call it stretch) haha but the Kansei's are a bit wider.
