I've been worried ever since I ordered the wheels and tires... Will they fit? Will they rub? Do I need to remove the crash bars? Will I need a lift?

No lift and no crash bar removal. Perfect amount of poke in my opinion.

My commute is about 120 miles a day, so we'll see how the Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP's last. The last set of Toyo Open Country AT3's lasted 59k miles and I probably could have squeezed a little more out of them. So far, in just the 10 miles I put on them to get home, the Bronco feels a little taller and I like the tiny bit wider stance over the 275/70-18s that I had on previously. Took it up to 75 and there was a very light amount of road noise. Nothing that will bother me on my commute. She needs a wash, which I'll do if the rain goes away today. But very happy with the look and feel so far!

Looks good. What wheels and offset did you go with?

Looks good!
On my 4WD Excursion I replaced my 33” Nitto terra grapplers with 35” MT Baja Legends and noticed they are definitely louder (the Nittos were almost silent) still on the fence about if I made a good choice or not. Price and availability on Amazon was why I bought them.

@MattAttack85 Great looking set up! The gray wheel really makes the red pop! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! Your guys at the store here in Palm Coast, Florida were quick and very professional. Very happy to take my vehicles over there whenever I need tires.

I have the same size tires except my wheels are -6 offset so I had a little rub and full turn. Removed front crash bars and solved that problem.
