Not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but saw on the Method website showing options for the Bronco.

Screenshots directly from the website above.

No information on factory backspacing/offset yet, but at least they show a few options.

Nice! I love the Method style wheels. For this Bronco, with a black top and other pieces, I think I'm going with the Rhino SPROCKET (Anthracite center, with a Black ring). I'll be taking it to the mall, with either 17" wheels, with 38" Milestar Patagonia's or 18" wheels with 37" Milestar Patagonia's. Check them out!!!

Nice find. I really like the Method wheel. Hopefully the correct backspacing will be available. The Rhino SPROCKET wheels are cool to.

I just made this post for someone else that asked about backspacing, so I think I'll add it here too, so this information will be here in a couple different places.

WHEEL BACKSPACING -- I just responded to someone asking about wheel spacing at bronco6g, because it seems like something people want to know, NOW. While I can say I'm not positive... don't buy wheels yet, I'll just ask you to follow along. If you don't like this post, tell me why. If you don't believe the source of the information, tell them why. If you kinda agree (like me), but you can wait to measure the existing wheels and to look for things that your wheels could rub on, then you're butt-anal, like me!!!
Anyhow:

Well, I'll tell you what I think I know: When you use the Bronco configurator on interactivegarage.com , the available Rhino wheels for the Bronco are listed there to be either -18 or 0 (zero) backspace. When you go the the Rhino website, to review the specifications for the wheel, it is listed to have a 6 x 139.7 pattern (6-lug) and the noted 0 (zero) backspace is 5.3 (inches) backspace, and the also noted -18 backspace is 4.5 (inches). This leads me to expect that the Broncos with a smaller tread width (less than the 12" wide) would be set at 0 (zero). The 33" and the 35" (and the 37", if it's offered as an option) all have 12" width's, so I expect that reduced backspace (about 3/4" less) is to get the tires out there just a little bit wider, so they won't rub on... whatever they would be rubbing on.

If anyone lives in Southern California, I will be selling the Sasquatch 35's and the wheels off of my Badland's, as Brand New Take-Off's. Let me know.

I contacted Fifteen52 recently about the wheels that they had on one of the Broncos. They told me 17x8.5 ET0... so my assumption is 4”-4.5” backspacing is going to be ideal for these trucks.
I could be wrong though. It’s been a while since I’ve crunched wheel specs back in my euro days.

I agree. That sounds perfect for a 12" wide tire... and 3.5" to 4.0" for a 13" wide tire.

They probably will be available through Ford accessories as well being that Ford is showing them off on their 37" build.

I will probably be interested in that, which wheels would they be? The all black bead locks? With mud terrains?

Well, not knowing if I will find a real buyer or not, my plan was only similar. I intend to order the Badlands, with the added Sasquatch, in white, with black top. Currently, they show only one Black gloss wheel, with two trims colors (matching Black or Aluminum/silver). I was thinking about ordering it with the Black wheel and the aluminum/silver. If I do that, I can more easily paint the Aluminum to the same Oxford White to get a good match. Let me know what you think!

So I’m wanting to order the black bead locks with the black trim if it’s possible on the Badlands without the Sasquatch. If I can’t, I would probably be interested in yours and the 35s. Thank you and let me know what you’re thinking...

I like Method, but i hope they make a few wheels without fake beadlock bolts.
I’m not a fan of that look ether. I saw this one.

I emailed fifteen52 this morning and got a reply. I was asking about the Analog HD hoping they would come in white. I got a quick reply which said:

"We in fact do already make the fitment for Bronco! It’s the 6x139.7 fitment ? We just don’t have the wheels hubcentric so you’ll just need to get hubrings. That being said, we are planning on a couple of new rad finishes for the wheel like a cream white to hit that retro look!"

They also sent me a link to a Bronco "cheat sheet":
