Sasquatch Guidance Needed for Build

[HTX_Bronco_Doom]

Team,

This thread will be my build thread shortly but could really use some help. I have a 2022 Outer Banks 4 Door. But I want to give it the Sasquatch look on the tires. I've done a lot of reading on this group and read some differing opinions.

Question: If I do a 2 inch level kit (not lift), could i fit Sasquatch size rims and tires without trimming anything like the crash bar or fender wall? And what offset do i need to add to my rims to give it that look?

I would love the help of someone who has done this.

Whatever you do, please do yourself a favor and buy better tires than what the Sasquatch comes with.

It's not "cutting" crash bars. They simply unbolt and slide out. In fact the Sasquatch comes from the factory w/o said crash bars.

I have a bone stock suspension '22 Big Bend 2dr. I mounted 315/70/17 (Sasquatch size) Nittos and 17x8.5 0 offset wheels the day we picked it up. Zero rubbing. Rides / pulls / runs great. All I did was remove the crash bars.

Can you elaborate? Are you seeing issues with the current Sasquatch tires?

Just read the forums. They love to throw gravel. They're also not E rated to the sidewalls aren't exactly thick. If you aren't a serious off roader, that part likely won't bother you. In essence, don't buy them if you are replacing tires, there are better tires at that price point or even cheaper.

All proper off-road tires will throw gravel, that's not the issue.

As you will find with a bit of searching, the OEM sasquatch tires are a great size and fit that "Factory 35" tires!" marketing victory.

But, to be blunt, they are cheap and shitty offroad tires. For the same money you'll drop buying them, go buy a better off-road tire.

As to what to buy.... Personal preference. But if you want to go with the factory tires because they are "great tires", then let me offer you a sweetheart of a deal on a pair of low-rolling-resistance Prius tires which are perfect for track days in your BMW! For you, only $3,500 if you act quickly and paypal the money to me today (Friends and family, of course).

I plan on getting better tires but i am more focused on removing or altering the crash bar. Would i have to make any other mods other than getting a 2 inch lift?

Yes, the other posters in this thread are correct.

Doing some searching and researching this yourself will be vastly more beneficial to you than just being supplied with answers. There are a LOT of threads on this subject and plenty of folks have done variations of this and posted their vehicles with pics and input.

First thing i wrote in this thread was that i have done a lot of research and have read various implementations. So keep the cute comment to yourself unless you want to help

What help was provided, you scoffed at.


I'll ignore your profile from now so that you can focus on rejecting when people provide some assistance.

Several vendors offer an alternate crash bar that will allow the 315s and not rub. Crash bars are easily removed/re-installed...no cutting, pull two bolts and they slide out.
