OBX non-sas tires

[BostonGuy]

Hi All,
I know this is covered in a bunch of places but I feel like the site is occasionally information overload on certain topics now.

I'm planning on adding these to my non-sas OBX. I should be able to do so without any adjustments/lifts beyond the speedometer adjustment correct?

I don't think these would be any issue at just over 33" diameter and under 11" wide

We literally have a whole thread on this, and the obx won't be different than other non-sas except for Badlands.

Kerlin Motors in Indiana has a package where they put the Bronco accessory wheels on an OBX (18x8") and mounted General Grabber 275/70R18's without removing the crash bars and no lift. No modifications. No issues.

those are Load E rated tires- i plan on a standard load tire

Thanks all. The show is your tire thread was great and helped me decide on tires but i just wanted to confirm I wasn't misreading anything and most people have some many accessories, lifts and alterations. I wasn't 100% positive which I wanted to be before I drop 1500ish on 5 of these. I did post it to the tire section.

Is there a downside to this. I'm not likely to do any hard off roading. These tires seemed to match look and handling I wanted especially in rain.

I want 35” mud terrains on mine please. But hey that’s my preference.

Badlands with KO2's is C load. I would not go with anything higher.

That is a damn fine looking tire. The only decision you have is letters in or letters out.

they're heavier- at 60 pounds a piece instead of 40, adding 100 pounds to your weight when you include the spare for no good reason if you're not driving a f 250 and hauling stuff. they'll prob ride harsher and slow acceleration and they make general grabber in standard load- just select it in the filter under load rating

You are going to have to look hard to find a standard load in 275/70/18

Feel like I'd rather tune the engine then get different tires.
