Goodbye 33’s, hello 35’s 😁

I went with the 35x11.5r17 Falken RT01’s

Sorry about the muck, just that time of year!

man, 35x11.5 keep calling me. Does it make sense downsizing from 35x12.5 to 11.5?

There are always trade offs. a lot of advantages and disadvantages. You will have better clearance all around (although the 12.5 has good clearance already you would have more).... and PSI... not internal pressure, but you will be placing the same corner weight on a slightly smaller tire patch which will result in a higher PSI force between the tire and the surface you are driving on. On some surfaces that is a good thing and on other surfaces not so good.

I’m a non sas Badlands, so 8” wide wheel with +55 offset - 11.5” width was only option with factory wheels ( which I wanted to try first )

In hindsight, I probably should’ve got the Sasquatch package - for no other reason than a factory fit for 35x12.5” tire, and options are basically wide open in that size - the 11.5” width are coming, but not nearly the options right now vs 12.5”

I am thinking about going the same route on mine. Have you noticed any difference in mileage, ride and road noise with the Falken tires? (as compared to stock ones)

1.5 mpg drop, extra weight felt accelerating, not in the steering which feels the same or lighter, they track nicely up and down the road, better than KO2’s, started with a nice little howl, louder than KO2’s initially
