After looking at the large amount of tire clearance I have and not being real happy with my freeway RPMs, I headed down to our friendly Discount Tire today for a set of 33x12.50s. The manager I was dealing with INSISTED that 33s would NOT fit my rig. "I had a Jeep with more lift than that, and 33s rubbed!" :bs:
After I repeatadly told him that with nearly 6" of lift they'd fit fine, he agreed to mount one "just to show me". :lecture: He was QUITE suprised to see that they indeed fit fine. :laugh:
The result is a new set of BFG TA/KO 33s that DON'T rub! (full-turns, stuffs OK in front) I'll need to bumpstop the rear a little until I feel like trimming, but the result is worth it. I didn't notice much power loss compared to the 32s I had on there, and I'm still running the 4:11s.
I like 'em! :yelclap:
