35x10.50 R17 / 35x11.5 R17 Sasquatch Badlands? Anyone have photos?

[ChompSticks]

Finally mounted.

is that no lift or level up front? I am thinking of getting 255/85r17s 35x10.5r17. I am on on stock sasquatch suspension with a 1/3" level

Hopefully today or tommorrow I'll have a Bronco to mount these to

Kenda 10.5 here as well. For the price, I couldn't beat the deal. The Sas tires were WAY too lightweight for my liking. Don't want a flat just for driving across thorns.

Although, depending on how you want your rig to look, these are not plump at all, and with an increased offset wheel, it totally changes the stocky look of a Squatch. Lots more undercarriage shows from head-on.

Up to you I guess.

I will say the the biggest selling point of the Sasquatch package on the Badlands trim is the factory 315/70r17 tires. So it's a bit odd to spend $2,500 to get the Sasquatch package, and then get a smaller tire than what the Sasquatch package came with.

People that are running 35x10.5r17 and 35x11.5r17 are usually those who did not order the Sasquatch package but are wanting to upgrade without blowing up the budget. But if you wanted to downsize your tire... go for it I guess?

Technically, most of these exchanges increased tire sizes. The Sas tires barely belongs in the 35“ category; the Kenda's are 0.5"+ taller. They are quite a bit more rugged (10 ply equivalent), so I look at them as an upgrade in that area as well. Then, considering the sale of Sas takeoffs for over 2k, I am very happy with my results.

Is your rig squatched, and are those the factory non-squatch wheels? It looks lifted but I can't tell if those are the squatch flares or the non-squatch ones

Those look like the non-sas Black diamond steelies with some 1 or 2 inch wheel spacers

At the time of the pics, just cheap Rough Country spacer lift and 1.25" wheel spacers. Other than that, it's a stock Black Diamond.

Nice! Can we get some more photos please. Also, is this a factory Sasquatch with only tires and wheels?

Sure! It is a stock SAS aside from a 1.5“ level kit, wheels, and tires. The weight I added with the drawer and sliders almost necessitated the level, and now I need to bump the rear to get a little positive rake.

I grabbed some lighter Fuel wheels (31Lbs) to offset heavier tires, and make the whole assembly the same weight as stock; they have a +07mm offset. Since then, some even lighter wheels in similar offsets have become available. The manufacturer posted recently but I forget the name.

Say @B Miller did you ever wind up coming across an example of 35x11.5s on a stock SAS wheel?

Would love to see if they're still at least flush with the fenders. If I was a betting man I'd say it would probably be ok, seeing as the stock 315 Goodyears sidewalls do poke out ever so slightly from the fender, and they're barely 12" wide mounted and inflated I'm thinking it might sit just at flush.

I've just turned 5000 miles with my Kendras and absolutely love them. Off-road they are extremely capable and highway travel is as smooth as silk.
Highly recommend the 35 10.50 R/Ts! (plus, I love the utilitarian look)
