Fifteen52 Wheels

EGBronco

I ordered a set of fifteen52 Wheels for my bronco. I’m wondering if anyone who has purchased wheels from fifteen52 can let me know if they came with lug nuts or if I have to use separate ones?

They did NOT come with lug nuts.

This is a great opportunity to ditch the ford two-piece lug nuts. They can corrode and swell.

Which ones did you get, @EGBronco? I'm kind of sold on the Patrol HDs. @bdawson24, you went with the Analogs? I haven't seen them on yet, but @jparker said they look awesome.

I actually just picked up my bronco from the dealer after they upfitted it. The analogs look fire, super pleased. I think the 17in fits the proportions well. @Laura

Yeah, that's a great choice!

Upgraded to 35s and a lift, couldn’t be more excited to hit the trails again

We were leaning towards the analogs and having them blasted and re-powdercoated to match the sliders, but decided against it. instead we will take the stock squatch rims and do the same!

Im trying to keep the narrower track and the analog backspacing was wider than "stock" squatched rims.

Ive not seen it done yet so I have my fingers crossed! haha

Understood. That's the one reason I haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Good to see 2 door brethren representing!

@bdawson24 Great minds think alike!

I spy some Ko2 tires!!
Do you have a front to rear side pic, showing the "poke" ?
Info on the offset?

@Laura Have you pulled the trigger on the fifteen52 Patrol HDs yet?

Not yet -- I might go for a roof rack first 😅 I'm not great at making more "permanent" decisions.

Which roof rack? I’m split between the Ford one or the trailrax

I love the TrailRax one, but it's not the right one for me for two reasons:

• 1) I'm staying in 33s for the near future but I want a rack for my kayak by spring. I feel like the TrailRax will look too dominant on my otherwise-stock and small Bronco. 2) Even though the BN Broncos are not mine, we already have the rack on two of our three. I have the chance to review another option and differentiate the look of mine.

I saw the ARB base rack at SEMA and liked it.

The lugs nuts swell on the bronco ?

Keep on her, she needs to pull the trigger here.

Its been a Ford issue since 2004, I'm pretty sure... the nuts have a thin layer of chrome on an otherwise normal metal nut... making them 2 piece. And when the tire shop does a number on them, and you have to change a tire in the field.... you'll know why people hate them.
