• Be EXTREMELY cautious if someone offers to buy your Bronco for more than your asking price and sight unseen. ESPECIALLY if the buyer is overseas. It's probably a scam.

Looking for 3 or 4 OEM Bronco wheels 15x7. They do not need to be pretty, just straight and rust free (surface rust okay).

I see. Do you think 31x9.5s would be okay mounted on a 15x5.5 wheel?

a 31 x 9.5 x 15 tire does not seem to exist

a 31 x 10.5 x 15 tire needs a 7"-9" wide rim

a 30 x 9.5 x 15 tire needs a 6.5" - 8.5" wide rim

This is from Tire Rack, some shops will only follow these guidelines other don't care.

If you are looking for a steel rim, Summit sells Wheel Vintiques which I have used...

I have four Bronco OEM wheels a tad north of you. These are the mag type from 90s Broncos. So... However, they will handle your desired tire size.

They do indeed exist. Interco super swampers. I just got a set.

I saw those Vintiques. Scared they wont fit as I have factory calipers (76 front discs).

Thanks

I managed to find five steelies in a 15x6 size. Prolly from a 70s or early 80s F150 or van. Mine are stamped on the inside of the rim with 15x6. You gotta be carful when searching these out bc not all hub holes will fit a Broncos hub hole. I have 33x10.50 KM2s on these rims.

I bit the bullet and bought the 15x7 Vintiques from Summit. Had to use a 1/4 in spacer to clear the tie rod ends. But now im in compliance with Interco's wheel width for my tires, and they look great. Taking them for powder coating Monday.
