wider stance

[dirtyhorse]

What would be a good cheap set of offset Rims to give my bronco a wider stance without doing a solid Axel swap

Any cheap steelies with more offset than what yours have, and wider tires I'd say

Just keep in mind the more you offset outward with a rim or spacer the harder it is on wheel bearings ect.

i had 1.5 inch offset wheels on my B II with 32x10.50 tires. it drove like crap! swapped to 0 offset wheels and 33" super swamper bias ply and it actually drove better! the best way to get a wider stance it to swap in explorer front and rear. front is a bolt in, rear just needs some simply mods. way stronger too

I've run 1in wheel spacers before.... It rode better but did eat a wheel bearing 15k miles later.... Always wondered about the cause. Hmm

Ok so I have a 87 b2 xlt what year explorer do I look for and how much they usually run in price and what kind of time frame is it to actually do the swap

any TTB explorer will work. i think 94 was the last year for TTB. with a strong helper you can swap it all in in 3-4 hours. the only drawback to the explorer front is the hubs. you can get good manual hubs new. look in the tech library for the warn part number

How much wider are the explorer axles
