When Ford resurrected the Bronco nameplate, it sparked more than just nostalgia — it sparked a movement. Adventure-seekers and 4×4 enthusiasts found a new canvas for expression, capable of handling harsh off-road environments while still turning heads on city streets. And few builds capture this spirit as boldly and completely as this fully customized Ford Bronco featuring a 3.5-inch Rough Country lift kit, 35×12.5R20 Toyo Open Country AT3 tires, 20×9 Fuel Clash wheels, and XPEL Ultimate Plus ceramic window tint. This Bronco doesn’t just perform — it commands attention.
The Foundation of Performance: Rough Country 3.5-Inch Lift Kit
A truly off-road capable Bronco begins with a solid foundation, and the Rough Country 3.5” Suspension Lift Kitdelivers exactly that. Designed specifically for the modern Bronco platform, this lift increases ground clearance, providing essential room for larger tires and more suspension articulation on rugged terrain.
Unlike a basic spacer lift, this system includes high-clearance crossmembers, precision-engineered brackets, and lifted coil spring spacers. This means the Bronco maintains factory ride quality while significantly boosting off-road potential. By raising the vehicle’s stance by 3.5 inches, obstacles that once posed a challenge — like deep ruts, rocks, and steep embankments — are now easy conquests.
Rough Country’s engineering ensures OEM alignment geometry and driveline angles are preserved, making this lift ideal for both daily driving and weekend trailblazing. The added height also delivers a commanding view of the road, offering a sense of presence that goes beyond pure performance.
The Ultimate All-Terrain Companion: 35×12.5R20 Toyo Open Country AT3 Tires
No off-road Bronco build is complete without tires that match the vehicle’s capability and character. Enter the Toyo Open Country AT3 in a formidable 35×12.5R20 size. This tire is built to handle a wide range of driving conditions — from muddy trails and snowy backroads to paved highways and city commutes.
Toyo’s AT3 is known for its balance between aggressive off-road capability and refined on-road manners. With a tread pattern that includes deep lugs, stone ejectors, and a multi-wave siping system, the AT3 offers serious traction without excessive road noise. The 35-inch height gives the Bronco more clearance and a bolder stance, while the 12.5-inch width ensures stability on uneven terrain.
Additionally, the tire’s cut-and-chip-resistant compound enhances durability on gravel and rocky surfaces, and its staggered shoulder blocks offer additional grip in soft soil and snow. Whether it’s crawling through slick creek beds or cruising the highway at 70 mph, the AT3 handles it with confidence and control.
Rugged Elegance: 20×9 Fuel Clash Wheels
Enhancing the tire setup are the 20×9 Fuel Clash wheels, which bring a stylish edge to this Bronco’s brawny setup. Featuring a bold, angular design with deep-set spokes and a simulated beadlock appearance, these wheels scream performance without sacrificing aesthetics.
Fuel Off-Road is a brand synonymous with strength and aggressive styling, and the Clash series in particular stands out for its intricate detailing and durable construction. The 20-inch diameter provides the perfect balance between visual appeal and practical function, while the 9-inch width offers proper support for wider tires like the 35s.
These wheels aren’t just about looks — they’re made from one-piece aluminum castings, providing the strength needed for tough terrains while keeping unsprung weight down for better ride quality and handling. Finished in a rugged black and machined face, the Clash wheels elevate the Bronco’s appearance to something truly showroom-worthy — even if that showroom is deep in the backcountry.
Tinted to Perfection: XPEL Ultimate Plus Ceramic Window Film
It’s not just the outside that’s been transformed. Inside, the Bronco features XPEL Ultimate Plus ceramic window tint, one of the highest-rated window protection films on the market. This isn’t your average tint — it’s a multi-layer, nano-ceramic film engineered to block up to 98% of infrared heat, significantly cooling the interior and enhancing comfort.
With 99% UV protection, this tint not only shields occupants from harmful rays but also prevents fading and damage to interior surfaces like leather, plastic, and stitching. The film’s crystal-clear optical clarity ensures there’s no distortion, even with a darker tint level, and its scratch-resistant surface keeps it looking sharp for years to come.
From a styling standpoint, the ceramic tint gives the Bronco a clean, cohesive look — adding an element of privacy and polish that matches the aggressive exterior perfectly. Whether navigating sun-drenched trails or parked on an urban street, the XPEL tint contributes both to the Bronco’s function and form.
This Ford Bronco build perfectly balances off-road capability, daily drivability, and modern luxury. It’s the kind of setup that doesn’t just look good at a car meet — it performs where it counts. The Rough Country lift provides articulation and clearance for real trail use, the Toyo tires ensure year-round confidence, the Fuel wheels make a bold visual statement, and the XPEL tint elevates comfort and protection to luxury levels.
For many, modifying a Bronco is about more than just upgrading parts — it’s about crafting a vehicle that reflects personal identity and adventure-ready attitude. This build does that, and more. It’s not just a Bronco — it’s a statement.
