Hey, those are 265/75R-16 AT tires I added. They handle the speed humps at the local Fred Meyer just fine, thank you. 🤪

For me personally... looking at the tried and true BFGoodwich KO2. Which luckily come standard on the Badlands non-Sas.

Longer term I may try these Nitto tires that everyone seems to love. But 3PMSF rated tires are important where I live, and I'm not sure if any of the Nitto tires have that rating.


Happen to have a link or model number for those steelies?

I have the Badlands with the beadlock-capable wheels on order, and I actually plan to install beadlock rings on them. To avoid having to remount tires all the time, hoping to grab a set of steelies I can use for everyday driving.


A lot of the hybrid tires are designed to do that, the Ridge Grapplers being one of them. You air them up to normal pressure 35-40 PSI and it sits largely on the center tread to behave more like All-Terrains. Air them down and they behave more like Mud-Terrains.

If you look at unmounted Ridge Grapplers from a side profile point of view, the center tread looks like it is 3-5mm higher than it "should" be. Milestar Patagonia has a similar setup on their tire. Kind of an interesting design, but truthfully not sure how I feel about it.
Bought through partsengine.ca. YKWWheels is the distributor and I believe they are manufactured by DTDWheels out of Quebec. Model # is YKW203. Under $84CAD a piece.

https://www.partsengine.ca/search.aspx?SearchTerm=Ykw203#SearchTerm=Ykw203

Now, fair warning: all the specs match up and they even have a little ford badge stamped in them. I only ordered my Big Bend last week (have a July 14, 2020 reso). Won’t be able to confirm they fit for a good long while.

Thanks!!

Only shipping in Canada… mmmm…. I live 2 hours away from the Canadian border so I could probably make it happen, but not sure if I’d make it back across the border through customs 😉

Was having a super hard time finding steelies with the correct bolt pattern and yet still had an offset that would keep the tire under the fender. But those you found look to be perfect.

Stock SAS wheels n tires until something breaks or wears out, then see what's available.

If it aint broke don't fix it, but if it breaks then upgrade and it feels like a new vehical

Stock Sasquatch wheels and just ordered a set of 35x12.5 Nitto Mud Grapplers yesterday.

May go beadlock on the stock wheels once there are cheaper 3rd party beadlock rings available.

At least the Alberta news has said they just opened the border to travel. If the price is right, may be worth a phone call to border station and a road trip :)

I added 33s to the stock wheels and a leveling kit. A lot of people like the ‘old school’ look with the steelies.

Went with these: 17x8/0 offset/American Racing AR172s wrapped in BFG KO2s at 295/70/R17. Rubbed a little going forward, but a good bit in reverse at 60% lock. Removed crash bars and now it fits perfectly.

Possible for you to show the poke on these? Love the look and being able to buy a mounted package at Tire Rack makes them an easy purchase. Not sure how the -12mm offset and back spacing mix works out.
