[Q-4000]

I am wanting to get a bit of a lift but don't want to mess with the suspension too much anyone run a 33" out back I know there are the MT's and Hooser that are WIDE I was wondering if i could use a 33X12.5 BGF AT has anyone tried this?

Not sure how TALL my BFG's are....(I forget details..) I have a set of 285X15 on the rear, 155X15 front.
I see a lot of 32's out there running the same size tires, and I liked the look of the big and little but I didn't want the "Lawn Rollers"....."BH"

I am, but they are on my 4x4

IMO I would think some BFG AT's would be a bit much for a T.

nice looking truck! I was looking at the BFG's because i know my T weighs about the same as my TJ (everything had been striped out of it was running 35" Boggers at the end) and they ran good on there i dont want a 16"+ wide wheel but would like the back to be up a bit more plus the at's can be found CHEEP!

Thanks its my daily driver, and at 12.5mpg not sure for how much longer.

Though I cannot complain to much its a fun truck to drive. Our local 4x4 club is all Jeeps, I had to have something different!

what about them? I run 33 and 34" dirttrackers. With tall tires a lower gear will help. I got a 4.30 rear gear an it fine.

Baby Huey, what size rims are you running with those. I actually like the looks of those on there. I was looking at the 15x15 with the lawn rollers but I have some rims already that may look good as yours.

In my experience, if you have 15" rims, the recommendation from all that I looked at they have a warning about anything taller than 31". I would guess 16" rims would work for 33" tall tires.

I'm planning on running 33x13x15 McCreary's. Or go with something comprable in a drag radial tire.

I was looking for those, I think BFG dropped that size. I think Coker makes them in a wide white though

Those tires that Baby Huey has are the same that I am running. They are 285/70 x 15. They have an OD of 30.70" with a section width of 11.22". Mine are mounted on 10" rims which is what most highboy '32's use. With the 165/80 x 15 up front, I have the look that I was after. The sad part is that they no longer make the 285/70 x 15 so I hope that these last for a L-O-N-G time.

I used to run the 285/70 x 15 ones too... in fact they are on T-odds car! :lol:

I am not sure if these are 32 or 33 tall. They are the right rear tire for a sprint car. They are on a 15 x 14 wheel.

LumenAl "I used to run the 285/70 x 15 ones too... in fact they are on T-odds car!"

This is true... and here they are in Street Rodder magazine!

Hard to find ANY D.O.T. Radial tire larger than 31" Diameter that has a nice tread for those of us that like to drive more than a couple hundred miles. ;P

 

[LumenAl]

Not to mention they appeared in a cherry bomb calendar too! :lol:
