What "backspacing" are you referring to? Is the geometry the same a Badlands otherwise?
Think the 11.5" wide will make a difference?
Maybe back spacing is the wrong verbiage. Offset is what I was referring too. I think it is the same for badlands and BD so it may not be an issue. It does change for sasquatch.

My Toyo order still says Backordered (without a date) - and the 285/75R17 aren't expected until MARCH.

What lift/level kit did you use to fit these? Also; any pictures from the side, on flat ground, to see what the tires look like when you're not out having fun? LolThese are 35x10.5 Kendas. Only other concern as you go wider is if you have problems rubbing with the stock backspacing. I know some have done it with minimal rubbing
The 35/11.5 Toyos. I ordered them Monday on Simple Tire and they’re already shipped. Still showing available too.

I added the sasquatch shocks and springs for my lift. I don't have any pictures on level ground on my phone. Picture 1 is just lift on the rear. Pic 2 is after the fronts were installed. It doesn't look like it in the picture because my driveway slopes but the rake front to back is about 1/2"

That looks amazing! Where did you find find sasquatch takeoffs? I checked ebay and couldn't find any. It would be great to know (roughly) how much you paid too.@StalePrinceOfBelAir

I don't have steelies but I'd definitely recommend the Kenda's. Put a set on my Badlands, loving them. No poke, no rubbing, even when wheeling.

Well, crap. If I wasn't getting 5 out the door from Tire Rack for $1445 - I would jump on that. They called today out of the blue and said likely February/March. I had a warranty claim that saved me some buckaroos. I'll have to wait it out since I am getting 5 for the price of 4.

285/70R17 fit no problem. I put some on today and look good with the steelies. Cooper AT3 4S. Wow and what a difference over the crappy factory Generals. Had them rebalanced twice but still had a nasty natural frequency type vibration. Cabin vibration was terrible with those things. I thought it was in the drivetrain but nope just the tires. All I hear is wind noise now. Much better.
Did you have to remove the crash bars?
2” RC lift, 35x11.5 Toyo ATs. No rubbing to speak of and ride really well.
As far as I have ever seen, you will always need to remove the crash bars for 35s and larger. Even with a lift. I could be wrong though.
