Painted black steelies on BFGoodrich KO2 245/65/17

Some people wanted to see what it looked like with the original hub cap covers so here they are. I'll be going with these hup caps I bought off Amazon.

While we have a hybrid XLT on order, still planning on adding an XL eco boost AWD next summer and doing the same. Great job on painting the wheels and adding these tires, really looks sharp. Maverick value at it's finest! If it wasn't for the Lady of the house, I would have ordered the XL on the hybrid as well.

I can see a set of '65 VW Bug dog-bowl chrome hubcaps in the middle of the black wheels.

WOW!!! Looks great

Seriously, this looks great. Has almost a retro look with a contemporary twist. I think the lighter body colors play well with the dark wheels and body accents. Dark colors look too monochromatic with dark wheels.

Looks incredible - thanks for sharing!

I saw this Bronco video when I was debating between A51 and CG. I ordered a CG XL for the steelies and black interior. Plan to order chrome lug nuts and a Ford center cap to complete the look.

Meh - I used plastidip on my Honda Pilot steelies. They still look great 5 years later.

The whole point is to keep costs low. Getting them professionally powder coated - you might as well just go buy new rims.

That would be the point for you. I believe in doing something the correct way the first time so I don't have to re do it a second time.
why I said new factory rims are the perfect candidat for powder coating. No rust, oxidation or long term exposure from chemical residues to worry about.

ive known quiet a few people who use plast dip on parts including rims. It’s a ok method but prone to fading, cracking and peeling over long periods of time.

ive even seen plasti dip cars before, still not a fan. To much maintenance and touch up sessions by those owners.

Discount Tire offers a black Unique wheel with a similar look for under $100 per wheel. Might be an option for the DIY challenged, like myself. Had to search for it using the ‘21 bronco sport

I thought about this but it would be the same cost if not more to just have them powder coated

Looks great ! A really good upgrade from the plastic looking stock steelies on the XL.

Do the tires rub?

I'm a middle aged ret veteran and have played the tire clearance game for years. He shows full lock with a little contact at the rear of wheel well. I am interested in the distance(or lack of) between tire and front plastic air dam/deflector. Looks can be deceiving but, It looks like it will make contact when turned. It looks great but I'd like to know more.

I get no rubbing at all there is actually decent amount of room but I won't go any bigger. Alot of other people have this set up now and no one has reported any rubbing
