What do you plan to do with old tires and wheels after upgrading?

Think I'm keeping these Sasquatch wheels. They are quite high quality. Far superior to what I was expecting. Now the GY's are quite squirmy.

I may do this. That second to last bounce is epic.

I’ll keep the Sasquatch wheels but switch the tires. I heard they are not quite 35s, more like 34.5.

I don't plan on swapping my wheels, but if I did, I would sell them. I don't want a summer/winter set of tires/wheels, but that would be a good option for someone who would want two sets.

See what the mighty 2.3 can do

Yeah . . . I've seen Ace Frehley do that with his guitar . . . not really what it's made for . . .

Haha definitely. But seriously I will probably hold on to the original set and swap them on for long road trips. I believe the original Goodyear territories are snow rated. I’ll put them on in the winter also.

I would sell them now, as a lot of people will be looking to buy them for non-Sas Broncos, and the market isn't going to get better. Once you have a ton of people out there with take-offs for sale, they will be like Rubicon wheel/tires and they will get low prices...no way would it be worth it to keep them sitting around hoping somehow they are more valuable on the truck or off one day.

Those wheels are nice though...I think most people replacing them are putting on lesser quality wheels that can't be converted to bead-locks...and in many or most cases, not as good looking.

 

[BossMann]

That is true.

the GY seem to likely be pretty darn good off road, but no doubt, I don’t like the look. I’ll keep the factory Sasquatch wheels, bead lock them with trail dedicated tires.

I have a First Edition in production and wondering if I upgrade should I keep the original wheels and tires? Don't plan to sell the Bronco anytime soon, but for collectibility or value of the Bronco later on. Plus would love to know what everyone is planning to do; LIke selling them to the dealership for credit towards new tires and wheels? If you keep them how will you store them?

I don't believe dealer credit will be worth it, better to keep and sell on your own or use this forum. When the day comes that I get to actually receive my bronco, I'll enjoy it for a bit. When the time comes to replace tires, I'll keep the stock wheels and use them for snow tires. That way I can find a nice set with +30 offset over the +55; leaning towards the RTR's and Nitto Ridge grapplers.

Im hoping to score a set of 17 inch steelies off a Black Diamond and I'll keep the stock 16's for snow tires. I'm on the lookout for a set of BD steelies.... so anyone looking to sell me those , I'm buying! Tri State (Northeast)

I like the OEM sas rims. I will use the tires a for times and see if I like them before I sell them or replace.

 

[Hamhands]

I will probably buy a set of bb take offs and then sell my base steel wheels.

Keeping the SAS Rims
Ditching The Tires

Buying Nitto RG 315/70 (34.4x12.7)
Want wider, and stay the same height, especially the tread.

Dont like the narrow tapered (9.2 tread) of The GY, even though the section W is supposed to be (12.5)
You can tell the tread is wider, and more squared at the bottom of the Nittos!

Painting the Silver Rings GM Gray

And putting Zone 1” level

Should be cool and different.

Want it to look more like the B&P CGI picture

My son needed new tires for his F-150.

 

[samjack]

Gave the tires to a friend that could use them. Keeping the steelies for winter use.
