I went with polished Pro Comp style 1069’s, and Pro Comp 35x12.5x17’s on my 2 door OBX. I’ve had it set up this way since March, and very happy with the results.

Thanks again AARDVARK122 for the details on your wheels (just ordered the same set-up and Terry was super helpful) ... really like the FORD detail you added to the caps - can you share how you accomplished this?

I just got my local fast signs make them from red vinyl. And applied them myself. I think they were only about $20 for the 4.

Great & TY ... my wheels arrived and I'll hit up my local Fast Signs. Another question - my Bronco has finally shipped (s/b delivered in ~2 weeks), were you able to use the same Base lug nuts on the new wheels? TY Again John!

 

[AARDVARK122]

Yes I believe so. I had the wheels installed at the dealership and they didn’t charge me for new lug nuts. So I am guessing they are the original ones.

This is clean! Looking at the flat black set for my WT (if it ever comes in).

Very nice....until you have to spend the day just to polish up those rims. I remember those days.

Son of a bitch. These are nearly identical to the wheels I had on my 89 wrangler in high school. Seeing the phrase old school and then seeing these reminded me that I’m old AF.

They actually don’t need to be polished since they were clear coated at the factory. I too remember polishing a set of aftermarket Alcoa wheels on my 96 Bronco back in the day. They would get dull after a short period of time. These wheels are easy maintenance.

Awesome. It looks fantastic. But then again I am biased. . Are you going to do any caps? Or just going for the bare look?

What lift do you have? Im running the same wheels but a 295/70r17, which is about 33.25", on stock BD non sas.

I like your ride. I have a 2” rough country lift on mine. There’s enough room for 37’s according to the shop that did the work, although they recommended switching to Sasquatch flares if I eventually do it. It drives great with the 35’s though.

Im leaning towards 2" just hope it doesnt have too much fender gap. On the plus side however it leaves the option to go with a bigger tire later. Realistically Id like 1.5 front and 1 rear but I havent found anything.

TY and you s/b biased ... Yes on the caps (the same you're using) - still waiting for my local Fast Signs to figure out the font (some things are never simple)!
