Best Tires for Ford Bronco Sport

The Ford Bronco Sport is a compact AWD crossover with genuine off-road aspirations — especially the Badlands trim, which has a twin-clutch rear differential and G.O.A.T. modes. Tire selection depends on which version you drive.

Common Ford Bronco Sport tire sizes

Bronco Sport (2021-current): 225/60R17 (Base, Big Bend), 245/60R18 (Outer Banks, Heritage), 245/55R19 (Badlands, Heritage Limited).

The 245/60R18 is the dominant size for most mid-to-upper trims.

Best tires — Base and Big Bend (225/60R17)

Michelin CrossClimate2 in 225/60R17: the best upgrade for Base owners. Year-round 3PMSF confidence, excellent wet grip.

Continental CrossContact LX25: wet performance and fuel efficiency for standard AWD Bronco Sport owners.

Best tires — Badlands (245/55R19)

Falken Wildpeak AT3W in 245/55R19: the standard Badlands upgrade — 3PMSF rated, genuine off-road capability. The Badlands twin-clutch rear diff is wasted with highway tires.

BF Goodrich KO2 in 245/55R19: for Badlands owners who use the off-road hardware seriously — trail running, rock, and clay.

General Grabber ATX in 245/55R19: for Outer Banks and Heritage owners who want light A/T capability without the full A/T noise penalty.
