Bronco Sasquatch wheels

[SDXLT]

Scored a sweet deal on 5 Sasquatch wheels that were brand new take offs and got them installed today. I didn’t want a lot of poke but hated how the stock rims looked tucked. These are 17x8.5 +30 and it moved them out a little over an inch. The beauty rings can be replaced with bead lockers. They look pretty sweet to me and are different than all the Methods and Fuels I see out here. The “Ford” caps fit perfect and the magnetic gray doesn’t look too shabby with the black and silver. Thanks @Discount Tire for the super fast install but I was a bit peeved by the $12 a wheel up charge to use a drill driver to install the beauty rings. It was literally an additional 2 minutes a wheel and $12 was egregious. They worked with me to get the install down a little more reasonable which I appreciate. Before I get flamed by anyone, the quote didn’t include the up charge and it wasn’t until the wheels were on the truck they told me about it. I still paid most of it because they have to make their money too. I’m a fair person. But honestly I know it’s not worth the charge.

Tires are 265/70/17 but pretty sure with this I could run 285/70/17 no problem.

Those look pretty good. I picked up a bronco but have the the standard aluminum wheels with 32" tires. Did you happen to notice if they are a lot heavier than the stock ranger rims? I read they're pretty heavy. some day I'd like to change out the rims too.

I don’t think they are much heavier. I think OEM Ranger wheels are 36 lbs. These are 35.5 lbs according to info on bronco6g. I think when you do the bead-lock rings that adds more weight.

I think those 35's on those wheels make for nearly a 100 pound tire/wheel combo. My daugher has a sasquatch package I can't imagine her changing a tire!

Yeah I don’t look forward to having to change one of these outside of my garage haha

 

[SDXLT]

Ok looks like I was wrong. Wheels I replaced are 27lbs so these added ~9lbs.

They look great!

Thanks now you have me shopping for a set!!

Check out the marketplace in Bronco6g.com. I was almost ready to drive to Fresno for a set that were $675. I found a set of 4 on OfferUp with black rings that the guy was letting go after we negotiated for $900. Then I found another set of 5 on Craigslist that were brand new take offs from a guy down the road from me a few miles that said yes to $900 and I drove over there like I had stolen them.

I went wheeling with them today and they were great. I haven’t noticed any significant hit to the mileage though mines not good because of short trips and hills.

All in all I’m pretty happy I went with these

Welcome to the club, gotta run 35's though none of this tiny tire malarky lol

Nah they aren't heavy even with the 35's

There is zero way they are any where near 100 pounds, I am strong but I aint that strong to where I could lug around 100 pounds as easy as I have the wheels (ive been running the sasquatch wheels and tires for over a year now)

 

[SDXLT]

I’ll go bigger with my next set but doubt I’ll get 35’s. My wife already complains about the height with the very modest lift even with the factory steps and my 5 and 8 year old still have to climb in.
