Bronco Tire Options

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Just placed my order today for a 2023 four-door bronco OBX non-Sasquatch, and I’m looking for some guidance on keeping the 18 inch stock rims, but upgrading the tires to something with more aggressive tread that fills the wheel wells better. I’m not an off-roader and am most concerned about ride comfort/quietness, winter traction, and treadwear. My tire store representative recommended four different tires, but I’m not sure if I trust his judgment as I’ve had a run of bad luck with occasional tire reps giving me bad info. Can anyone give me an idea if any of these options are legit and how to determine how big I can go without needing mods, lifts, or levels, (which I don’t want)? Also, does anyone know of a decent tire visualizer website where I can see a tire on my vehicle before I commit? Most are pretty bad. Thanks!

He recommended a 265/70 18 (stock is 255/70 18). I’m not sure these will look a ton different. He also said not to go with any that start with “LT” because as a labeled “light truck” tire they can be less quiet and comfortable.

Go to Tire Rack and checkout tire and wheel packages.  That will provide you with a "visualizer".  I use Cooper tires (now owned by Goodyear) and have been very happy with them.  Opinions are all over the place on the best tire. I do see NItto and K02 being recommended on other forums.  Checkout https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/ if you want to go down the Bronco rabbit hole!!?
