This is the kind of channel that has real value. Not the music, not showing an all-optioned out kit that was sponsored by the manufacturer or a dealer, but a real dude using his own real money for the benefit of a lot that might not have otherwise thought about this route.

I'm so glad that all these base model Bronco videos are coming out!

If your keep the steelies powder coated in white they should look good!

Those tires look great! Glad you’re showing how you can make the base model look cool and perform well too. Much love from Texas!

Looks great on the new tires. I look forward to your updates while I wait for my Bronco to arrive...

Love the retro look of the stock wheels and RWL. 285/75 looks much better than 255/70, great choice!

Wow the tires make a huge difference in the way it looks!

Thank you for showing us! The new tires look sharp! I keep hearing people complain about the wheels but those look perfectly fine! It gives that retro look. The more I search, I'm leaning towards the basic model and upgrade as needed... thank you again!!

33's look perfect on base 2 door. Could you do a video of a walk around to show stance from the rear, and head on. Thanks for the vids.

Love it. Great choice going with the base and aftermarket add-ons.

Looks good with the white lettering. Good tire choice. 33 is the standard size for Badlands, so it makes sense that it would fit without issue as long as the offsets were done right. Nice!

This is going to be the Bronco build I’ll be most interested in, seen plenty 80-100k Broncos and Wranglers, this will be truly unique!

I really enjoy your channel. After ordering in March 2021 my 4 door base finally came in Friday! After your video for inspiration….I applied the same size tires to mine, also keeping the stock steelies! I opted for the BFG A/T KO2 (mainly due to availability) And it looks awesome! Very pleased!

This video was instrumental in helping me decide on my tires! I put 33" Hakkapeliita LT3s on my base Bronco. It drives perfectly and it looks great! Fills the wheel wells nicely and gives me an increase in ground clearance and ride height by 1.5". Thanks for this!

Great work explaining the mysteries of tire dimensions. We are seeing a lot of video work chronicling how much wheel and tire can be stuffed effectively under a stock Bronco. This helps make the case for Ford starting with a 33" (32+") tire. as opposed to those cheap slicks they ship with. Most of that rubber will end up in a landfill. So, from a practical and sustainability perspective, starting with larger AT's is a better move for everyone.

Love the channel. I have an budget bronco coming. Mine is just like yours except I am getting velocity blue and a brush guard. I am getting base two door. 7sp man, metal modular bumper and aux light switches. Those are the only options. I can’t wait to see how you build yours out.

Looking really good! Thanks for sharing your progress.

wow nice job, I ordered base 2 door with Sasquatch, wasn't keen on doing my own mods and getting everything right since ford put a lot of thought into balancing this vehicle's options but now seeing what you are doing I wish this video was available before I ordered.......Can't wait to see your progress

Wow that looks shockingly good! I think this might be the vehicle to finally replace my XJ

That looks fantastic, love the white lettering. I wish I was able to get that option with my Falkens

This is exactly the video I've been looking for. Well done, straight to the point.

Great job on the tires! Excellent job on all of your mods!

Looking good. Glad you kept those original rims too. They're the best looking rims in my opinion with that simple old school look which adds to the Bronco vibe.

New to the channel and have watched both videos. Love them. And those steelies look GREAT with those tires. Hopefully if I get a Bronco, then it is something I would love to do. Big sucker for vintage style wheels and steelies just look good with everything. Can't wait to see more!

Looks great keep mpgs updated

Such a good video!!! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks to this video I was able to make my decision with upgrading my base tires without any worries. Awesome video. Super helpful. Thank you.

Looks good, love the steelies

The biggest advantage of the 285/75 16, it's available from a myriad of brands at almost every tire shop. 255/85 16s are much less manufactured, and much harder to find if you are out in the boonies. I went the same size on my Ranger with Tacoma wheels. Works great with a front end lift. Edit: with all that sidewall, they are excellent on potholes.

Looks awesome!!

I just found your channel. Your Bronco looks great. Near my home in FL there is a 72 Bronco that looks a lot like yours for sale on the side of the road. I pulled over thinking I wanted to buy it. As it turns out, they are upwards of $200K. Wow!

Looks more beefy and aggressive…love it!! Looking forward to seeing the rims painted. I really like Lenos restored Bronco🤤…can’t wait to see yours finished…waiting on my 2dr/BL w/Sas…. honestly don’t need all that but love the look…so maybe seeing your mod will convince me to change trims…I was a late res order so I’m sure I’ve got plenty of time w/how slow they’re rolling out.🙄

Man I gotta handed! The plain Jane Bronco with Steelies looks great! But with larger tires in the steel wheels! Now it looks way better! Nicely done!👌😎👍

Literally this one change perfects the look!

I really like it! Perfect. Little flash back: I remember in the late 80s and and early 90s when i was working at Sam's club, they had general grabber ATs in tires section. I ended up installing 285 75 15 on my then new 89 Wrangler base model Jeep. Back then my base keep cost 8999 brand new. I love awesome budget and good off-road vehicles Something about base model steel wheels just look great. And the General Grabber tires are perfect upgrades.

Thanks so much - just a great job. The Bronco looks awesome!

Nice looking ride. Canceled my reservation, but I may jump back in when the chip shortage & markups are done.

Looks great. Super classic looking. I love that you have an articulation test area in your driveway lol.

Looks nice on the steelies to. Thanks 👍

Just ordered a Base Bronco, thank you for the info. I like the painted wheels and grille on you other video.

So much better! Ive seen some videos with 35s removing the crash bars but its tight. 33s look good

Love the content and to the point style. Keep it up!

Have same tires on my FJ cruiser. Great tires! No complaints.

Great vid. Look forward for when you paint them rims!

Damn looks fantastic!!

Looks great 👍..first thing I'm doing whenever that is.

Your Bronco looks excellent with the new tires, nice upgrade!

Very nice looking, you’re Bronco Bob Approved! 👍

Base bronco looks great with 33s. Just subscribed looking forward to more videos.

First mod I’m doing. Terrific video

Nice work, I’m going to do the same thing as soon as I get my 4 door Base. I will show your video to Costco guys as they usually go with what the sticker on the door.

Great fit and the RWL tires look great on the stock steelies. No need to upgrade the wheels at all. Perfect.

Looks nice. I love the base model with proper tires.

paint rims white, VERY COOL, this is the bronco id buy, back to the basics, I would order them with the BFG K02 tires white letters out old school

I love general grabbers, best on / off road tire I have purchased. I run them on all my SUVs

Those 33s look great! Ordered my base model yesterday, $31,410 cannot wait, I initially wanted to try 35s but I know I would have to remove the crash bars which I'm ok with but it may also need a 2" lift to fit 35s so I think I will get myself some good looking 33s

Awesome vid, shows 33's will work fine with any stock suspension trim level.

Looks outstanding

Nice!!! That exactly what I would do…love the old school steel rims!

This is very helpful. Love videos that answer my dumb questions.

Looks awesome 😎

I prefer the bronco in a basic level. Looks like I would order mine

Love the look awesome choice

Looks amazing

Night & day difference!! Look great!! The new Grabber AT is much better then the previous, almost identical looking Grabber ATs. The new ones are much softer, but still long lived. The priors were such hard rubber and after a couple of years squealed on almost every corner, depending on what you drove and nearly useless in the winter once they hardened up. Silica is like a wonder cure!! These tires are so very similar in appearance as to their original release back in the 80s boy unlike the BFG KO2s from the very early 80s or 1979!!! The compounds changed and improved over time of course. The casings definitely improved! The KO2 used to be called the All Terrain TA back then! Sometimes you can’t mess with perfection,,,,, hahaha!! I do also like the new amendments to tread design on the Grabber ATs. I was 15 when I started working in a tire shop in 77, then at 17 I invested 1/3 in the shop. At 18 we caught a partner stealing so I bought that 1/3 and owned just over 66% of the business. At 19 I bought the final 1/3. At 21 was debt free. All the while I was working for my dad on the ranch as well, also finished high school. At 21 is when I leveraged the business and started buying the ranch!! It was a long haul to true $$$ security but I got there in time!! All the while, the Tire shop/front end and suspension shop (eventually) paid the bills, put food on the table and bought the occasional toy for momma or I. Unfortunately no kids. That made it quite a bit easier financially, but not so emotionally. Retired at 55 after selling everything to relax,,,,, that’s a hard thing to do after working a minimum of 2 jobs since 15 years old! Haha. Even at 55 I would work for the Manager on Saturdays and Mondays once in a while to give him some nice weekends with his family. Still put tires on, worked with anything from bicycle tires to earthmover tires right to retirement! The bigger tires and winter changeover season really started to kick my butt!! Haha. This d*mn BFGs and Generals stayed basically the same ALL that time. Sold soooo many,,,,, even though Coopers, eventually, were my primary tires!! Haha.

That looks great!

Finally a base model! Thanks for making a great overview of a tire upgrade!

Looks good man. New sub from South Carolina

btw….i very much enjoy the detail you provide!

Hello fellow Pittsburgher! I am very interested in the base 2 door myself so I have subbed. Congrats on your Bronco!

Looks awesome 👏

Damn that looks sharp!

That…. Loooks so good!! The stock tires just don’t look quite right. But I love the look of the steelies. This is a perfect combo

The engine in that Bronco sounds like an air pump running. The Branco looks really good with those tires on it.

looks great

Heck yeah makes a big difference. Ima get my base rim painted black

Love the 2 door with steel wheels. Seems to fit what the bronco should be better than other trims. If I got one it would be as base as possible but with the lockers and 33s.

Looks awesome

Keep up the great conversion. White rims like everyone mentioned. Maybe a retro white pin strip.

Very nice, I wanna do this to mines when I get it in

Looks so good with those steel wheels.

this is a great channel

looks beautiful on the 33's. thats just the right size for a stock bronco.

Classic look 👍🏻👍🏻

It looks real good

Man I appreciate you doing these budget bronco videos. It looks great. Very Inspiring , Very Needed

Wow, looks great. That size should be the one the base comes with.

Perfect size for 2 door!

Cool video, good info

Man looks good

I have 33x10.50 15s on my 03 taco and love them

I ordered the base with the Sasquatch package although I’m using it for mostly road driving. I will change my order to base with the bumper upgrades instead.

Great video Tim. I’d like to hear your thoughts on the 2.3 litre / manual setup. I always thought the V6 / auto would be best for me but I’m open to the 4. Thanks!

This is ideal. That looks amazing, makes great use of the wheels, and probably doesn't take it completely down to 15 MPH in gas mileage.

I love the channel and will be orderingine July 15th. Are you still happy with the 33s on the stock steelies? Thanks again for the great documentation, I think that it helps a lot of us out here, plus it's just cool to watch someone modifying his ride 👍

OMG that looks good

Thank you for putting the white letters out Like there supposed to be 👍

Great video. Tires look good, not overkill but it gives it a classic off road look. Perfection. Any idea of speedometer change? 1 and 1/2 inch ground clearance add? Perfect! It’s perfect.

looks good and not over doing it with a way over size tire.

Yea that looks great. Since you’re painting will you paint the top in that antimatter blue? That would look awesome.
