17" wheels & 35" tires going on my truck, currently running 15's & 33's.

Will order a matching spare since I already have the 5 35" tires.

It has a new tan/spice interior from Tom's Bronco since these photos were taken.

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Option 3
The others would look out of place on a classic, in my opinion.

Option 3 looks the same as what you already have in 15's?

They look the best of the 3 options to me.

Though with the classic styling of your Bronco I would be inclined to get the US Indy Mags.

sooo.....what is wrong with the wheels that are on it? they look in nice shape

I'm with you Crush. 33X15's are the perfect wheel/tire combo in my opinion, unless you're crawling or muddin!
It looks great just like it is.

Agree with crush. Other than Indy, I think option 3 is the best looking aftermarket wheel

I like option ONE (1).
Not that three doesn't look nice, it's just redundant. Another look alike.

I agree, just too many of those around. 15x10 Slots would be a good option if you are an old school look guy and more rare than the Classics

You could always add a little black like on your flares and do a rim with some black or gray. I ordered these off tire rack and was not sure they would look right on our classics, but loved them once I got them. I think the 10" wide helps rims look better than the stock photo on most websites.

Indy wheel option was just more money than I wanted to spend.

I’ve had it like this for 8 years and I’m ready to freshen it up. Not selling what’s on it until I’m happy with the new look. Nothing wrong with the current wheels and tires, they still have 60-70% tread on them.

Thanks for the feedback though!

Yeah splurging $1k for the 17" Indy's when you don't really need new wheels is a tough pill to swallow!

If you're ready to freshen it up I wouldn't chose option 3 as it's the same look and you won't get as much "retail therapy" from the purchase ;D

Your Bronco is perfectly suited for some 17" steelies painted Argent. Would look sweet as with the green. They are cheap as well, though depending on the width of your 35's they may not work, as the widest they come is 7.5".

Then you can keep what you have and switch up your looks when it suits.

It is such a great idea I am doing it myself ;D
