Pretty sure the same wheels come in a zero offset instead of -18. That should reduce the poke.
Wheels are a +12 offset. Think they come in a 0 which would’ve been more poke.

Thanks to many that helped get to this point. I bugged a lot of you about specs and I appreciate your responses. @Area51outerbanks and @Southern Girl specifically. Thank you for your the helpful pics on your OBX.

Specs
295/70/18 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss.
18” x 9.5 +12 Black Rhino Apache Bronze Wheel
2” Rough Country lift

I was concerned about the poke with the +12 off set and 295’s. Most pics I saw looked exactly where I wanted to be. But it ended up slightly more poke than I had calculated for. Which is fine. It looks awesome. The MT Baja’s are terrific so far. Love the aggressive sidewall and they’re quiet on the road. Also triple peak snow rated and made in USA.

Crash bars removed on both sides though tire guy said could’ve stayed because he didn’t see rub at full lock.

Have the retro stripe on way and will install black bronco script as well.

Wow, looks really nice.

- What was the total cost, if you don't mind me asking?
- Was the 2" lift necessary to squeeze in those tires? Would a 1" or no lift still accomodate?
- Are you getting a lot of spray on the doors with that poke?

Like how it matches the house too.
Out door with my local tire wheel guy was $4100. I think a 1” lift would clear just fine pulling crash bars.

The tires measure about 34”x11.4”. And ya that’s the draw back with the stance is it’s gonna spray sides on wet/snowy/muddy roads and trails.

Edit: That was a set of 5 with alignment, lugs, tpms transfer.

Might be it was a beauty it seemed to vibrate around 120 though and bottomed out at any jump over 4 ft.

That looks really good!
Really on the fence about going to 18 inch wheels.
A lot of them I like aren’t made in 17s
I just wanted to make sure I had enough tire versus rim for Offroad.
But if you think about it’s only a half inch diameter all around bigger.
Cool!

Wow! It looks great! How do you like the lift? I'm getting a 1" lift next Friday.
Nice to see these, my OBX arrives in a week or two. Southern Girl, what 1" lift are you doing for what tire/wheel combo?

it IS a great color - looks amazing! I was stoked for the green, but this is still better IMO & I've seen some Bronco Sports in person with it, photos don't do justice. So I'm sticking with it on my order....but, will I ever see my Bronco? I seriously doubt it. I will just enjoy other's vicariously!

I am just getting the lift because I want it. I have 275/70/r18 KO2s on my Outer Banks. The lift is the 1" Rough Country. I am not changing the wheels. I can't find any I like with the same offset, and I don't want them to stick out past the flares.
