Default 35"x10.5 tires

Looking to find if anyone has gone with the skinnier 10.5" wide 35's? If so can you please post pics and provide feedback about how you have liked the setup.

I am thinking of getting a set of 35x10.5R16 Supper Swamper SSR tires to put on my factory steel sport rims. I think this would both allow me to keep the stock rims as well as keep me legal by keeping the tire under the flare better. I am also thinking this would reduce the rooster tail off the front tires n bad weather, my TJ had a lot of this with the 12.5 wide size and it was an issue in the winter.

Only SuperSWamper carries that size in TSL and Narrow variants.

I want the same 35x10 or 34X10

I know to follow fender cover laws, several guys go 235/85/17 tires. They're a 33" tire that's pretty narrow. They look real good. Not many people run Super Swampers for a DD.

All I have found so far are Super Swapers in this size, but there must be more choices because it is the size the the full size dually guys run when they go up to 35's.

As to swampers on the road, I have owned them before and like them and the SSR has very good wet pavement handling for its large lugs.
