What wheels are you using to replace your steelies on your XL?

I got some Bronco Sport take offs with Falken Wildpeak AT tires with 500 miles on them for $350 off FB Marketplace. Sold the steelies with Conti's for $250.
I'm not a super fan of this particular wheel (I bought a different 18" Bronco Sport wheel), but this seller has been getting a ton of serveral types of Bronco Sport 18" takeoffs lately.. He is a pleasure to work with and he ships the rims perfectly and quickly... $700 all four shipping included..

17" Bronco Sport Big Bend
$500 w/ tires - as new off of Craigslist
Tim, you could have one of the 'younger' employees scroll FB Marketplace (or I like to use SearchTempest.com) for deals on Bronco Sport take-offs. People replace perfectly good alloys and tires all the time.

Agree that Bronco Sport takeoffs are a good idea.
Otherwise, I think you'd want to zero in on an affordable wheel where the design approximates one of the other Maverick wheel choices. That way the overall design language stays close to what people are seeing on the lot in other trim levels. I could see wheel designs that were too "loud" or ones that look difficult to clean perhaps not gaining enough traction to have been worth your investment.

Voxx Orso.
17" OEM tires fit, although I upgraded to Falken Wildpeak A/T Trails - same 225 width.

My favorite style is usually pretty easy to find. They are called “On Sale”

If steelies are a hangup, then I would think just about anything alloy would do just fine, price factoring in of course. A mix of colors might be a good idea, some bare alloy/polished, painted grey, and some painted black. I choose RTR’s because of price. They are matte grey and I probably would have chosen glossy if they had been available, but for the price I could not pass them up. I do like them a lot as matte still. I thought they would be harder to keep clean being “dull,” but I did a proper ceramic coating on them, and they clean off easily.

Not just better looking than steelies....i prefer those over stock XLT wheelsBorbet Type Y.

Lighter than steel OEM, better looking and affordable (currently around $147 per wheel).
I really dig this set up!! Pow!
