Damn 35s are big

[evgenyvasenev]

Yes. 10mm = 0.4"....plus 1/2 of 34.4 - 32.7

So, basically, it's about 2"? right? Not 11.6 but 9,6 or so?

That sounds like a man math answer!

After watching the Bronco Nation video, "conquering the Hell's Challenge Trail in Moab", I decided that the Sasquatch is not needed. They used a variety of Bronco's, some with squatch, some without and they all appeared to do equally the same. Reality is that (in the video) the 35's don't even stand out aesthetically when you see them along side a bronco with 32's. Didn't appear to be any noticeable or absolute differences even though I am certain the purists in the group would disagree.
My personal viewpoint is the 32's on many of the Bronco versions provide a good balance for daily driving and getting off road reliably. I also believe the smarter bet for a broader audience is to order the lockers if you have any desire to go off roading. Anyway, after viewing that video I feel more confident in finalizing the configuration I'll order and it won't include Sasquatch.
Now, if only they would allow me to place an order.....

Good call on that video. I hadn't seen before. I'll never be doing anything like this. I like the idea of the Sasquatch package, but it's likely totally wasted on me.

Not quite. The exact amount is (34.4“- 32.8”)/2 plus 0.4“ = 1.2”

I have 35s MT on both my wrangler and my F150. Takes quite a bit to lift my spare tire up to the rear tire carrier. They’re huge compared to my wife’s 32” KO2 tires.

It's a good way to ensure that we stay in shape. We don't want to get embarrassed because we can't swap out a blown tire with the spare. ?

I like the look of the 315s on the two door Wildtrak. I only wish I could go with some KO2s instead of the MTs.

How come? I'm between the KO2 and the MT (33s) on the Badlands.

haha. What!? How did you conclude that? I’m no rocket scientist although I did get a 780/800 on my math SATs almost 20 years ago. Which came as a surprise to everyone. But still...the math equals 1.25” not 2.00”.

PEMDAS?

BFG K02s have established themselves as some of the most versatile A/T tires out there. Very good road manners, quiet, long treadwear, great grip in most off-road conditions, and very good performance in snow. These 'Goodyear Territory MTs' they're showing on the Bronco are brand new and still an unknown quantity.

Maybe they're great. But nobody knows yet.

road noise will depend more on the tire and not the size of the tires. Raptors come with KO2s and You can barely hear them. I switched to Duratracs and the Duratracs are def louder but not crazy loud like what you would get from mud tires.

The road noise is going to shock a lot of people that haven't driven wheels of this size on a jeep (which will have similar road noise characteristics). If people plan on daily driving their bronco, especially on highways, then getting the sasquatch package is a massive mistake in my opinion.

 

[dgorsett]

Even though I have 35s on my jeep and f150, my wife will be wheeling her 4dr BL on 33s and going where 99% of other Broncos can go. Not worth the Sasquatch upgrade for her on a BL if she’d be swapping out the wheels & tires anyways.

If I go Sauatch I'd like to trade to 33's, I see you're in CO let me know if you want Squatchs

Um...your first sentence doesn't jive with basic physics. The. larger and wider tires with more aggressive tread patterns you'll get with sasquatch will 100% have more road noise then the standard wheels/tires.

 

[bdub2you]

I don’t know about that...lots of people DD Jeeps and trucks with 35 and bigger with no problems. It becomes fun to drive a truck like that, not a chore. You don’t run into people with that type of vehicle who wish for smaller tires very often...but very often the opposite....people always looking to lift and go bigger. I think a lot more will regret not getting Sasquatch than any who would regret getting it. I think if you’re going Bronco...go all in.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Most people that do swaps to the larger wheels are doing it because they're fairly hardcore off roaders, but if you did a survey of all jeep wrangler owners you'll find that the vast majority don't go bigger. If you're on the road over 90% of the time like 99% of jeep owners, it would be foolish to make your vehicle objectively worse to drive for the conditions you're mostly driving in.

we will see how loud the 35s (GY Territory) are on the Bronco when they come out then. And compare it to the stock tire.

The tread blocks along the center of the tire look like they won't be too bad noise-wise

 

[Raptor911]

and C-rated ... they will not be loud.
