What do you guys recommend with 35/12.5/15 bfg a/t? Im thinking 15x8 but not sure. Just curious if I ever did 35s.

I'm running 35x12.50s on 15x8 rims, no issues here.

8s. They will hold a bead better aired down, and will clear better.

I prefer 10" width on a 12.50 tire so it keeps the tread flat. I thought the 8" rims with the 12.50 tires let it wander/roll side to side on the tires going down the road.

That's why you adjust tire psi, even tread wear and not as harsh of ride. I have 11.5s on 7s on the sonoma right now, and have 12.5s on 8s on my K20. A lot of people have run 12.5s on the stock 7" wheels too.
