Anyone running 35x11.5s on a Sasquatch? Do they look smaller than stock?
Tires are a dice roll when it comes to true to size variations. I was happy that my 37s were a solid 36 plus.

As most say - an actual 35x11.5 will be ~slightly~ taller than the SAS 315/70 - but the difference is not really noticeable
The width you will notice from front on view - hence the pizza cutter nickname. You already run spacers - so 1/2” less poke may or may not be noticeable depending on how close your tire edge is to the fender flair line

The Goodyear Territory MT is one of the most square tires I've seen.....a flat tread with no crowning! If I could get the Territory in a 37.....aka 36.....I would have done so. I like them. Great traction and low noise, seems to wear well.
It measures at 33 3/4 at 39 psi and 12/32 tread. It is 16/32 new. Take that for what its worth, but these tire are significantly smaller than most labeled 35s.
Next to a 36.25 aka 37.

35x12.5 look great but are wider
I am a believer that with all things considered, the 33x10.5, 35x11.5, and the 37x12.5 are geometrically same, and look and function superior to the wider tire. I've ran 35x12.5 on an 86 (3G), because they looked good and fit back in the 1900s. I am running the 33x10.5 on the Tacoma and 37x12.5 on the 24 6G. I've seen a 35x10.5, yes 10.5, on a 6G and I'd do it as well. If you can get a 35x11.5 for your 6G....do it!
Kendra Klever makes a 35-10.50 … guessing they d be slightly taller than GY Territory stock size but a couple inches narrower. 1” per tire side)
not a Pizza Cutter but more noticeably narrower than 12.50

oh, but wait.......
35x10.5 is a pizza cutter, just like the 33x9.5 on the old mil jeeps and old Cruisers.

I’d say it all depends on the tire?…
Stock Goodyears were noticeably shorter than the KO3’s I replaced them with. ( 12.7x34.1 vs 12.5x34.4 respectively )
I ran 35x11.5” RTO1’s on my Badlands and they measured narrow on the tread, so they looked and felt narrow on road, which I loved. They were also closer to 35” tall vs a 315 or comparable 35 - measuring 34.8” - so a side profile really filled the wheel well. Loved the tires.
The skinnier tire is going to look different for sure, but I swear by the feel of a more narrow tire when aired down, it seems more planted, wish I could describe it better?!
I dunno, sometimes you just gotta trust your gut and pull the trigger and then you can post some pics for us?!

Yeah, I think you’re right, it really does depend on the tire.
I actually put the 35x11.5 KO3s on today. Funny thing is, they don’t really look that much narrower to me, but somehow the whole tire just looks smaller on the truck. Maybe it’s because the stock Territory MT has a more aggressive tread and shoulder, so it looks beefier than it actually is.
I was originally going with the AT4W but they were backordered, so I went with the KO3. Kinda wish I had waited lol, but maybe I just need some time to get used to the new look.
Just a heads up for anyone thinking about 35x11.5 KO3s on a Sas — if you really like that chunky factory Sas stance, be prepared for the KO3 to look a little smaller even though the numbers say otherwise. Not necessarily bad, just definitely different in person.
At least I’m hoping these can take a beating better than the Goodyears. I put about 60k miles on the stock set in two years and managed to kill three of them
