Upon the introduction of the Ford Bronco almost two years ago, Ford Authority put together a comprehensive guide to all the unique tire and wheel options available for the rugged pony. Now that some new models have been released to bolster the off-road SUV’s lineup, we decided to make a new guide to provide the most accurate list of Bronco tire and wheel options for the 2023 model year, broken out by trim level and package.
| Trim | Tire Size | Tire Make & Model | Wheel Type | Tire Diameter (inches) | Wheel Size (inches) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base | 255/70 | Bridgestone Dueler H/T | Steel | 30 | 16 |
| Big Bend | 255/75 | Bridgestone Dueler A/T RH-S | Aluminum | 32 | 17 |
| Outer Banks | 255/70 | Bridgestone Dueler A/T RH-S | Aluminum | 32 | 18 |
| Black Diamond | 265/70 | General Grabber A/T | Steel | 32 | 17 |
| Badlands | 285/70 | BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 & Goodyear Territory | Aluminum | 33 | 17 |
| Wildtrak | 315/70 | Goodyear Territory | Aluminum | 35 | 17 |
| First Edition | 315/70 | Goodyear Territory | Aluminum | 35 | 17 |
| Everglades | 315/70 | Goodyear Territory | Alloy | 35 | 17 |
| Heritage Limited35-Edition | 315/70 | Goodyear Territory | Aluminum | 35 | 17 |
| Sasquatch Package | 315/70 | Goodyear Territory | Aluminum | 35 | 17 |
| Bronco Raptor | 315/80 | BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 | Alloy | 37 | 17 |
Every Ford Bronco variant rolls right off the assembly line with a set of rugged tires ready for any off-road adventure. Even the Bronco Base is outfitted with 30-inch Bridgestone Dueler H/T tires wrapped around 16-inch Bright Polished Silver painted steel wheels, although those are all-season tires, so their ability to go seriously off-road may be limited. The Big Bend and Outer Banks trims are each outfitted with 32-inch Bridgestone Dueler A/T RH-S tires, with the former rolling on 17-inch Carbonized Gray painted aluminum wheels and the latter on 17-inch Black High-Gloss painted aluminum wheels.
Meanwhile, Black Diamond gets 17-inch Black Gloss painted steel wheels as standard, with optional 17-inch Black High Gloss painted aluminum wheels. Outer Banks models get 18-inch Bright Machined Black High Gloss painted aluminum wheels as standard, and 17-inch Machined Carbonized Gray painted aluminum wheels are standard on Badlands. Optional 17-inch Black High Gloss painted aluminum wheels with Carbonized Gray beauty rings are optional on this trim. Additionally, the Bronco Heritage Limited Edition gets 17-inch Unique White wheels as standard wrapped in 35-inch Goodyear Territory tires. Included in the Sasquatch Package, these wheels are late availability.
However, the Ford Bronco Raptor sports the meanest set of tires and wheels on the list: beefy 37-inch BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires on 17-inch High Gloss painted alloy wheels. The Bronco Raptor also has 17-inch Dark Carbonized Gray alloy painted, beadlock-capable forged wheels.
There are also plenty of wheel options available from Ford directly, such as beadlock wheel kits, a set of 17-inch wheels for Badlands, along with a functional beadlock kit. That enables Bronco owners to purchase wheels they might not have received on their models should they desire a spare set or simply want to upgrade.

Actually, the Raptor has 37 X 12.5″ tires.
Come Tuesday, some of that isnt going to matter. No more wildtrack, no more hardtops, no sasquatch, and no lux package. Anybody still waiting 2.5 years to get exactly what they want now have to drop those features if they want (a shot at getting) a bronco in 2023. And anyone not willing to drop those features, will get their orders cancelled at the end of the year and lose any and all price protection accrued during their wait. no idea what is going to happen with 2 door orders. Also, dealers that have more people on the waitlist than allocations, will get the boost to try to clear the backlog but will lose allocation in future years.
I want to know if 15″ wheels will fit on a 2023, 2 door Bronco?
No luck finding 16×12’s.
15×12’s are easier to find.
I own a 2022 Bronco Big Ben and would like to upgade to bigger and more aggressive looking tires. I would like to know what my options are.
If you have a Base model or Big Bend (non Susquatch) you will need a lift kit and remove the front wheel well crash bars for the bigger wheels to fit. The end result is well worth it!
You’ll have to remove the crash bars yourself as the dealership won’t do it.
