Hmmm, running smaller tires than stock 285s on 18” wheels?

His truck is an XLT so it did not come with 285s

The wheels fit perfectly, hub bore is a dead match and reused my original sensors. The included sensor kit may be the issue, I don't think they were compatible with the RR.
Wheels are +35mm offset vs. stock +55mm and that brought them out about 3/4", no issue there.

As for the caps thats what they had on Ford.com, they had 25% off code (but only up to $250 0ff) vs. Ford Performance (now Fordracing.com) that had the racing caps. Looks like you can get either on Ford.com now.

I'm OK with the caps I got and did ok on the purchase, $250 off + Ford points + sold TPMS kit for $250, net cost ~$1300 for 5 wheels.

Did you sell your sensor kit on Ebay or what? Mine are just gonna sit in the basement and collect dust if I don't do the same.

Nope, I’m running larger wheels and tires than what came on my truck. My truck came on 17” wheels and 255/50/17 Tires.

Yes Ebay for mine but you could always register at Bronco6G and list them there too, ask $275, theres a market for the OEMs. Just do a quick search of the part# so you can list the years and models they fit.

RTR Evo 6

Those were my second pick over the Medot 705s, but for my needs I was willing to trade a couple lbs for bead grip capability and I didnt want to go past ET35 offset although ET30 is still within the stock range Ford uses on the Broncos which share a lot of chassis parts with the Rangers.

I really like that Bronze / Blue combo!

Do Bronco rims have the same offset?

Stock offset range for Broncos is from +55 out to +30. It depends on the tire / suspension / trim package you get as yo what wheel and offset they they use. There are a bazillion Bronco wheel styles from Ford, not so much for the Ranger.

I used the factory wheel offset range for the Broncos as my guide for the Ranger and it seems to work out that Ive not single a single report of rubbing from turning lock to lock, compression when jumping or full articulation if you keep the offset between +55 to +30 as long as your have stock tire size.

I did see someone report mild rubbing with +25 offset wheels on a Raptor even on stock tires when jumping in the dunes in the UAE, but +30 has been good.

I prefer a little more safety margin so my limit was no more than +35 and I ended up with Method 705 17x8.5 ET35 as the best compromise between offset, lighter than stock even if not the highest (25.2lbs is pretty light though) and having bead grip or something similar which was a must for me.
