2025 Maverick Lariat Wheel Size

[colinl]

I found someone somewhat local with Bronco 17" wheels for sale

I assume you mean Bronco Sport wheels, but that's a good plan.

Correct.

Correct.

You will find buyers for your stock wheels & tires but unfortunately a lot of street truck crowd is far from Michigan and shipping them will be expensive.

Yea I am in Rural Minnesota so I am in a similar boat.

I've looked at what tires i could eventually get for a Lobo.. the default 19" size really limits the choices to anything "road sporty".. basically nothing

you're in florida and you bought a lobo, were you actually wanting all-terrain or 3pms rated all-season? and if so... why?

I think the 19" tires available suit a lobo perfectly.

Sure all seasons are alright, i'm more looking at summer tires. there are none with a 55 radius on 19's is what i'm talking about.

255/50-19 or 245/50-19. tons of summer tires.

check the sidewall height of a 255/50-19 and 225/55-19. it'll ride fine... as far as summer tires go, that is.

only part worries me is everything would fit with that width is all. also would it properly sit on the wheel like that being isnt it like 7" or 7.5", not much info on wheel width-tire size rule of thumb

worst case you would pay for one tire mounting for a test fit at a local discount tire.

I'm confident it will fit, look at my pics over here of the clearance on a 255/55-18 on my factory 18x7 wheels. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/f...nstalled-on-stock-18-wheels.48656/post-843896

that said... if you're planning to drive on the stock tires a while, you can just wait until someone else tries it and reports back. we should see Lobos delivered in about a month. after that I bet it's not long after we see the first lobo lowered, and first lobo on oversized tires.

I found 20+ options in the 235 55 19 size in summer performance tires on Tire Rack. Looking at the list there are Michelin Pilot Sports that are a good tire and I think would work well on a Lobo.

Discount has the Goodyear Eagle F1 that I think would also be a good Lobo Tire.


EDIT: Saw you are looking to run a 255 55. Thats a pretty dang wide tire for a truck that makes very little power unless you plan to also do some performance work in that department as well not sure why you would be looking at such a wide tire?

my truck is an ecoboost awd and it is tuned for E30 93 octane. it's probably making around 290-300 hp, but I don't really care about the specifics.

a few replies up I linked to the 255/55-18 summer tires I use for autocross and just having fun. I have a set of 235/65-17 all-terrain tires on a second set of wheels on the truck right now. this coming year they'll probably stay on the truck unless I'm autocrossing, because I like the look and the AT is rated for a whole bunch more miles of treadlife than the summer tires.

when I had the all-terrain tires & wheels mounted I weighed one of the summer tires (mounted on 18x7) and they were the same weight. so, even if a person has a hybrid, there are cosmetic reasons to run an oversized tire.
