Has anyone put spacers on their Bronco with bigger tires and NO lift? I thank you in advance for your input and pictures.

Wheel spacers ? Or suspension spacer?

Assuming the former since you said no lift.

Yes, badlands, manual transmission, came with 33”

35 fit with 1-1.5” hubcentric spacers…

DO NOT USE CHEAP SPACERS!
I would recommend the BORA spacers those are heavy duty steel spacers but they are a bit pricey
I put some aluminum cheap-ish 2" hubcentric spacers, they had tons of great reviews, on my F250 (i know much heavier) and thankfully my front bearing started to go out because when I was loosening the lugs to replace them every stud snapped off with very little effort and the hub centric part had broken off as well.
The left one is a good spacer the right you can see the broken studs and missing hubcentric ring. 42EF6340-8DF5-4BF3-9123-0A6AF5A0EAD6.jpeg

Spacers scare me…I’d rather l have an offset wheel any day of the week for this reason.

Hub Centric spacers are safe as can be. I plan on adding 1 to 1.5 inch spacers, when mine arrive. They are waiting in my Amazon cart.

My spacers where hubcentric. A lighter vehicle may never have any issues but I would seriously consider the BORA spacers.
