Hello,
first of all im not a newbie, i hate that i've had to start all over with the new website change
Im looking to get opinions. Im coming up on soon getting new tires.
Well as you see in my sig. i have the dreaded 3.58 gearing :xbarf:
and of course no money to regear yet.
i know im gonna take a "hit" by going up a 33" (im currently with 265's/31" balloon tires-so it won't be a BIG hit like coming from 29's) but im really wanting to go ahead and move up to the 33's.
my question is, would it help alieve some of the "hit" by using a 10.5 as opposed to a 12.5 or does the width really NOT make much of a difference? the only real reason im even considering a 12.5 is because i can of course actually get SOME 33x12.5's cheaper than the BFG AT or MT 10.5's.
