Far too many questions. Hoping for help triangulating on a wheel/tire combo.

Howdy Chris,
When speaking of offset, is +6 or +12 a specific unit of measure? What I mean to ask, does “+6” equate to an imperial unit of measure? My concern is that I’d ask for something that’s different and potentially unintended in certain scenarios, or between vendors.
Cheers!

Correction: I meant “-6”.

It's millimeters.

The 285/70/17 is not as tall as the Sasquatch Tire. There will be a perceived loss of power and performance with a larger tire than that with the 3.73 gears. The 285 is also not as wide and it will not stick out past the fender flares as much as the Sasquatch Tire as well.

Many have installed the Sasquatch Tire with the 3.73 gears in their truck. They say it's fine. It's not nearly as good if they had the Sasquatch 4.70 gearing. There is a reason why the Sasquatch Tires are paired with the 4.70 gearing from the factory.

Gotcha- thank you

This is all very helpful- thanks again Chris and MPeugeot

Howdy Stuck,
It’s certainly a consideration. I’d like those wheels more if they were just simple 6 spoke (not split six), but you know- tastes run the gamut. I’d also like to get a bit more offset, to align with the Sasquatch fenders. How do you find the road noise of the K02’s?
cheers!

Wanaka's are a simple 6 spoke pattern. Come in a matte gunmetal as well. I have a set of those waiting for my HPR 2 door. +12 offset.

I’m running a +35mm offset Method 705 wheel with 285/75R17 Toyo AT3 tires. It fits perfectly under my non SAS flares with just some tire sidewall poking out, but no tread past the flare. I don’t see the appeal of the Sasquatch flares. The 705 are easy to clean and come in a titanium color.

To me, that is perfect offset/tire combo for the Non Sas Flares. Nitto makes a 35x11.50 tire which would have the same width/poke. Great looking truck.

Icon rebound titanium
17x8.5 0 offset
305/70 nitto RG (34x11.5)…ish!

Howdy BroncoAZ,
I should do some serious scrutinizing. One of the things I find odd is that it’s easy to find a set of Sasquatch fenders for ~$425, but for the life of me I can’t find “regular” fenders. I have an OBX in blue, and while I like the trim level, I’m not so crazy about the painted fenders. I bet they scratch or show damage easily, and don’t want to even know how hard they are to replace/match. I figured I’d store them and get some gray/black option, and the Sasquatch is all I find.
That being said, I really like the fit you have shown in those images. Sincerely. They look fantastic. By any chance do you know the weight (wheel and/or wheel + tire) for those?
Cheers!

Actually, my OBX fenders seem to be holding up surprisingly well, but then again, I only have 54k miles on my Bronco.

“Only 54k”? Ha! Nice.

Nice looking ride! Just wanted to give a second opinion that the AT3’s have been a phenomenal replacement for the stock Bridgestones. I thought I’d regret not springing for 4A this winter and I haven’t thought twice about it on these tires.

Thanks for the complements. Wheels are 25.3# and tires are 56#. My stock Badlands tires were 50.5# and I think the stock wheels were 30#. I didn’t do before and after on a scale, but I should be within 1-2# per corner to stock.

I went with the Icon Rebound Pros with the Titanium colored finish on them. Many reasons, being very easy to clean among them. I put K02s (37s) and they are fantastic. Almost no noise and just aggressive looking enough for me. I have the 4.7 gears and they work well with the 37s, would be great with 35s as well.

Side note, these wheels and tires balanced out really well with just a few ounces of weight on each wheel consistently. I was impressed considering the size and weight of them.
