What happened to Badlands stock wheels?

Hi everyone,

Finally took delivery of my 2dr Badlands. Was a 2020 reservation holder and stuck to my guns and didn’t change what I wanted. Unfortunately the stock wheels (non-squatch) became unavailable (photo attached) late in the process and I had no alternative but to accept what they had (which I don’t really like).

Does anyone know if these are available? Will Ford be producing them again?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure about the availability of them but these were not the stock wheels for the non-Sasquatch Badlands, they were an upgraded option.

Yep...This is correct. The the option wheels like this were a dark gray ring. The SAS were light gray. At least when I ordered mine.

I just checked on line and they do show them at Ford performance. Check at the BN store, Leathal Performance, Cj Pony Parts or any FP retailer for availability. Good luck!

CJ Pony Parts has a set of five rims, with the gray rings, center caps and new TPMS sensors for $2500. You are looking right at a month to get them

From my recollection, I thought they were. Anyway, they are no longer available in the build and price. My dealer said they weren’t available at the time of final build so I was given the non-squatch option. I’ll check around! Thanks everyone!

Here is the link to Ford Performance @TK1215 was talking about:

https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-1007K-DC178B

Ford Performance's website only sells at MSRP, and often you can find it cheaper from Ford Performance dealers (my personal favorite being Lethal Performance). However, on larger parts like wheels... ordering from Ford has the added perk of heavily discounted shipping to your dealer and the ability to use FordPass points. So check prices for sure.

Bronco Nation also sells Ford Performance parts at a 10% discount if you are a member... BUT... it looks like they don't offer the 5-pack of the wheels. They only offer the wheels with beadlock rings. LINK

I may be misunderstanding, but think the link you guys are providing are for the wheel @Sixteen got with his Bronco, but he prefers the "standard" Badlands wheels over the upgraded non-squatch.

sorry for the misunderstanding, the links are correct for what I originally ordered. It’s been almost 2.5 yrs since I first reserved them so my old man brain forgot!. But I did originally order the optional wheels NOT the stock ones. Right before my order went into production I noticed the only change was that they went back to the stock wheels. My dealer said the optional wheels were no longer available with my trim. Wish I could exchange the stock and get the optional wheel thru Ford Performance and just pay the difference. I’ve only had the vehicle for less than a week.

If you stalk the Bronco forums they do appear from time to time. Here is a post on Bronco6G from the other day.

About a year ago they were readily available online from people selling them. A lot of folks bought them assuming they were the same as the Sasquatch wheels, but those optional wheels are only +55 offset rather than +30, so they were having trouble fitting their 35/37” tires.
