31 vs 33 vs 35 (video by 4WD)

[harperrb]

Not Bronco specific, bit for those of you struggling between the Bronco wheel options and sizes, this video (by an Aussie 4WD overland team) goes through the pluses and minuses of tire size. Their overland videos are pretty great as well.

All the better with factory engineering behind the 35s on the Squatch.

So, his "33s" are 33.8" (i'd call them 34s) @64lbs per corner and his 35s are 34.4" @67lbs per corner.

The stock Badlands 33s are 32.7"... and the BFG KO2s, assuming they're rolling with the Load Cs, will come in at 51lbs per corner.

Of course, we don't know the wheel weights yet, but we can also guess that the sasquatch's 17x8.5s will weigh more than the Badlands' 17x8s.

Just thought I'd add some context. And yea, I'm probably compulsive in my attention to rotating and unsprung mass, but IMHO, it can make a huge difference in the driving feel.

I'm really hoping that the BadLands' 33s look "right" on the 2 door. I'd really prefer to keep them.

Only downside I see there with the sas for daily use is breaking and evasive ability. Sounds bad. Buuuuuuuuut I mean come on. Anybody lookin for 35’s already knew that.

Yeah Im looking at DiamondSas but if its not any cheaper I may go badlands and will probably squeeze 36s on there after I go through the 33s. For the speeds we go on the island it doesnt matter much. Bigger is better.
