Odd little expereience…

On Monday Nov. 17 I had my summer wheels and tires swapped off for my winter set. Seemingly all good with my Ford dealer delivering me the car when the work was complete.

But when the driver came to give me the key she mentioned someone waved at her at a stoplight to tell her the passenger real wheel was wobbling even though she said she felt nothing amiss when driving. When we went to look at my Bronco everything looked fine, but nonetheless she advised me to drop in a the dealership and…

2025 Bronco Sport Badlands tpms

Hi
I’m receiving my new Badlands and will change tires and wheels as soon as arrives.
Since I will change the wheels for a 18” kmc with 245/60 Geolandar G015, thinking about to keep my oem wheels and tires stores.
For this I will need new TPMS for the new set, but I don’t know the ford cod. I read somewhere that since 2024, the tpms change. Anyone could help with this?
Cheers

Memory seat preset and keyfob setup issue

I have run into a strange issue that I wonder if any other 2025 Badlands owners have encountered. Heck any owners with memory seats!

I have setup my memory seat for position 1. Based on the owner’s manual I should be able to link this preset to my keyfob. The instructions simply say to hold the preset button until you hear a second beep at which point you hit the lock button on the keyfob. The problem is no matter how long I hold the button it never beeps a second time.

Bronco Sport Off-Rodeo Moab Full Report 11/14/2025 (Long)

As promised, I am reporting on my Off-Rodeo Moab trip that I completed last Friday. I will spare the traveling to get there details because I don’t think anyone really cares about that. All I will say is that I drove my 2024 OBX out to Moab from Sacramento, CA, and I drove straight out there in a little under 15 hours with stops for gas and one stop for lunch. It snowed hard in Donner Pass on the way home, so I was really glad I took my Bronco, and this was its first maiden road trip over…

Which JCR skids plate to instal first?

Hello, looking to add some extra under protection to my Badlands. I am leaning towards JCR skid plates but not sure which order to instal them? I can’t do all at once so maybe one or two now then more next year. The options are:

-Evap and floor skid
-Gas Tank Skid
-Engine skid
-Front bumper bash plate
-Catalytic converter skid

Another wheel/tire conundrum question.

I am looking to beef up the look of my sport. I’ve read a lot of threads already and I see the same sizes will/won’t rub. Not sure why it varies so much. To be on the safe side, I am looking at MR701 (17×7.5, +30 offset) wheels with 235/65R17 tires. All opinions welcome. Rubbing potential? Too conservative? My first thought was MR502 rally (17×8 38 offset) wheels with 245/65R17 tires, but I see a lot of talk of rubbing. Thanks for putting up with another tire question.
