Sasquatch Wheels and Tires Going on Non-SAS OBX!

[22-OBX-Lux]

It works great. Plenty of clearance and not just for pavement. You can still hit the trails. If you aren't looking to rock crawl, it's all good. The SAS package 1 inch taller so it's really not all that much difference in clearance. Throw on a Zone leveling kit or a 2" for a couple hundred bucks and you have as much or more clearance vs. standard SAS package.

Just to clarify, there is zero rub and plenty of clearance once you remove the crash bars w/ OEM SAS Wheel/Tire package.

Did you have to do anything with spare to make it work? Brake Light extension or reinforced mounting plate?

Fits fine. No modifications.

I can also confirm sasquatch wheels can be installed on an OBX provided you remove the crash bars. There is no rubbing lock to lock when driving on level pavement but I will be adding a Rough Country lift to remove the rake and create additional space between the fender opening and wheel. The factory brake light was also retained.

About to do the same with my stock badlands. Have you noticed any extra rocks flying with the slight wheel poke? I added mudflaps on mine but still a little concerned with paint chips with the standard fender flares.

I have decided to add the modified crash bars from 4WP, as well as a third brake light extension.
The Modified crash bars were $199 and the brake light extension was $30

Any concerns with the weight of the SAS setup on the tire carrier? I know the SAS setup weighs in at 87lbs what do the stock OBX wheels and tires weigh?

No.

What gearing does everyone have? Any issues with 3.73 Auto and these SAS takeoffs? I searched but this seems to be a less discussed topic

Now that you have had these on for awhile let me know what you think of the ride. I did the same to my CG OBX 2dr and the ride quality suffered quite a bit especially in the rear!

 

[Redcobra]

No.

And they fit against the lower stops too!

I have rear locker so 4.27 gears. Pulled front crash bars for clearance and no rubbing without a lift

My Sasquatch wheel and tire takeoffs shipment arrived this evening! Can't wait to bolt these bad boys on my non SAS OBX w/ no lift. Or maybe I should Safari the 911, think it would rub? Lol.

Off to the tire shop tomorrow AM!

***EDIT Sasquatch Wheels and tires fit no problem w/ bars removed.

How noticeable was the change in ride quality? And have you noticed more debris getting passed the fenders?

Rides great. Practically no change in ride quality. It is a bit slower though.

That looks GREAT @Swartzzz ! I've got the "same" OBX and looking to put some take-off Wildtrak Tires & Wheels exactly like those on mine. Now that you've had it on for a few months, what are your thoughts?

Curious on your ride quality, gas mileage, and highway drivability.

Thanks!!

Gas mileage is awful on these. But, what I have going for me is this. Whatever it says it is getting is worse on the dash, as it is in real life. Until you program the car, it is a solid 3mph slower than it shows.
