Hello All,

I‘m new to the off-road world. Well, kinda. I have a quick question.

The tires on the build and price look big. Bigger than I would think. What is the actual side difference between the Sasquatch tires and the Badlands tires? Taller, wider, what?

Either one ride better on the highway than the other?

Anything else I should know?

Thank you

Badlands tires are 285/70R17 and are 32.7". Sasquatch are 315/70R17 and are 34.6". So, Sasquatch are 3 centimeters wider and about 2 inches taller. They're also heavier. The 33s will be a lot better on the highway, shorter breaking distance, quicker acceleration, better mpg and quieter. Handling around turns, etc will also be better with 33s. 35s will definitely out perform the 33s off-road and will look cooler to some people.

I am going to go badlands without squach. Might go to a like 295/70r17 or so when the tires wear out for something a little bigger. But I will only really be driving on pavement so want better ride quality than the 35s.

34s that should not need a lift or rub if you have the Badlands.

so you don’t think 35s would fit on non squach badlands?

They'd fit, but more likely to rub. See the A51 overland build. That is a non-sas build with 35s. The profile accepts the 35s, but it's lost articulation or it's going to rub.
