Why the obsession with 35's?

I get it for some uses, but the down sides have been noted here in a number of threads.
So why the 35 obsession?
Asking for a friend.

 

I couldn't tell ya

 

Proportionate to the big truck in my opinion. Just depends on what youre willing to sacrafice for looks.

 

Looks is so bad ass

 

Because it is the size of tire that starts to look like a bigger class of tire. You can tell from across the street when a truck has 35x12s

 

OP, I assume youre asking about 35 inch tire specifically since thats the size you wrote. Are you against oversize tires all together, or do you have a preferred size you think is best?

 

Pffft... 37s are the new 35s.

 

This is true.


I remember when 33x12.5 on 15x10 wheels was cool.

 

I like little tires to compensate for my huge...












...ego.

 

No, nothing against 35's or larger tires at all. It really depends on your individual use case. Mainly a curiosity.

That, and thinking about what I will do when I have to replace the factory install tires when the time comes.

 

95% are mall crawlers. It’s because it looks cool. To do it right requires a lift, gears, wheels and tires.

 

The reason everyone has 35’s is because that’s what fits with very little work. If 37’s fit that easy, everyone would have 37’s.

 

I could definitely be fine and probably better off with small tires but I cant stand the look of the stock size tires, it just doesn't look right.

 

The bigger tire the better when ur off-roading But if u drive s street queen that doesn’t like to get scratched u go 20” rims on 35 so it looks cool.

 

I’m going to go 33‘s

 

Because they can’t fit 37s?

 

Clearance, looks cool, minimal work to fit, and don’t need to regear.

 

Just because

 

We need to justify our CMC’s

 

OP, you should downsize and go with the smallest setup you can find. Maybe you'll start a new trend

 

holy shit. unicorn sighting.

 

35’s provide more ground clearance or any size bigger than stock, that is the only way to lift the diffs higher from the ground a “lift” kit won’t do that. Bigger tires put more pounds per square inch to the ground, increasing traction.

 

Google Hawaiian truck style

 

35'S.............SHHH, why 37's! because anything else would be uncivilized....

 

I had 33's on my 2012 Tundra, then on 2016 I have 35's and Im loving it. Kinda gives me a little "birds eye view" ahead.

 

Cause can't skip leg day.

 

Copy Cats, following others is the trend, What size fits blah blah etc.
