Tire size

[Dmorty217]

What’s the largest tire I can put on my factory wheels on my black diamond with these https://www.mishimoto.com/checkout/cart/
And not have rubbing without a lift? I have about 5” from factory height before the bronco won’t fit in my garage anymore which is a no go. Ideally I would like 35s but 285/75/17 would also be ok if that’s the route I have to go. I paid for the upgraded wheels from ford so having those with the brand new tires from the factory sitting in my garage taking up space while spending $4500+ for new wheels and tires I would like to avoid.

a 1" level and 33s on the bd is the sweet spot imo

285/75 or 295/70 is the largest I've seen without requiring mods. I think some people may have squeezed sasquach sized tires(315/70) but at a minimum you will need to remove the crash bars and IMO they look overstuffed on the narrow rim.
To me 285/70 is the sweet spot for stock BD or BB wheels and that's what I will end up going for. There are also a lot more choices in this size.
A lot of the 285/75's and 295/70's that I have seen are E rated and very heavy/stiff. This is something else to keep in mind.

What size spacers did you go for? I also ordered Mishimoto Spacers in 1in. My black diamond should be here by the end of the month.

I haven’t ordered the spacers yet since I was waiting to hear replies to this thread before ordering. I’m leaning towards the 2” though. My blend date is tomorrow and hope to have a delivery estimate by the end of the week/beginning of next. I know it’s coming by rail so I’m sure it will be a slow, painful wait.

there's some good threads on this too, do some digging.

i'd note if you are 2 door look at a 1" level and 285/70/R17 KO2s. 2" lift may be a little much unless you are going bigger wheels. 4d i'd probably consider 2" level and 33-35's to help with the stance. 2d on 33s is perfect, 4d needs a little more imo.

It’s a 4 door. My dealer tried to tell me $850 for a 2” lift installed (I provide the lift) which is crazy high IMO. Other places I have spoke with told me 3-4 hrs at $100-110 a hr. I guess the question is with the 2” lift and 2” spacers is that enough to prevent rubbing with 35s? I read different things here and can’t keep it all straight.

all in the wheel offset.

+1 wheel offset gets you 35s no lift

2" you should be good

2+2 definitely good and will be poking out.

remember to get your speedo recalibrated. you will be 5-6mph under with 32-35s.

How do you recalibrate the speedometer, forscan? That’s one thing I feel I’m way under qualified to use. I do like things you can do with it that I have read but it seems daunting.
