Title: opinions/advice
Post by: willbacker45 on August 19, 2008, 10:22:07 PM: ok so i just got done with my lift total came out to 3.75 inches completely level...so now its time for some new meats :biggrin:

i was thinkin BFG MTs 33x10.50 i have crager soft8s with 4.75 BS or 4.25 cant remember what do you guys think?

i dont want my tires way out but a lil is ok...i also dont want to look too skinny...i have 31s but they are extremely bald and old so i doubt they are anywhere close to a true 31x10.50 however they stick out about the right amount so just some opinions would be nice

The 33"x10.5" will look a little skinny, stick with the 12.5" if you don't want that.

Look for pics of Moz's jeep when it had 31x10.5R15's on 8's. They are common place. They fit the tire better then if you went narrower like the stock 6's. The 6's cause the tire to donut a bit because the sidewalls get pinched inwards. Then you have to run lower pressure just to get an even tread pattern. The 8's will also give you the option of going with 12.5's later on.
