Default 275/65/20 vs. 35x12.50x20, who's ran both?

By most charts the 35 is only 3/8" taller, but atleast 1 1/4" wider and considerably heavier. I'm currently leveled and running the 275/65, but have considered the larger 35. I don't mind trimming if I need to. Who has ran both and felt like the 35s were worth the negatives simply because they look better.

How wide are your wheels and whats the offset?

Might help to mention if you're leveled or lifted?

Why not split the difference and go with 295/60/20 or 295/65/20 ? They are 12.13" wide.

I previously ran 275/65/20 with a 20x9 -12mm on my leveled truck. Even with the negative offset I think the 275s look too narrow, I would go with a 295/60/20.

I run a 295/65R20 which compared to the true 35X12.50 (really a 34.5X12.5) is a 35.1 X11.8. They look great and are 14lbs less per tire than the aforementioned. No rub whatsoever and ride great.
