Does anyone have pics of these on their rig or some performance issues.
I've read the arguments over height and width in respect to "floating".
But jus wondering. For that deal I could save a buck or two or get an extra set of decent looking wheels.
Currently running some 32x11.5's with rubbing and no lift.
Eventually (soon) will have a 2" lift so i'm thinkint the 33's will be fine.
Just worried about performance (I notice there is a lot less body roll on these 32's...if that is even possible or in my brain since I've only driven it about 50 miles in the past couple days)
Anyway before I jump on the deal wanted to get the ever coveted OPINION.

Some 9.50 vs. 10.50 tire comparisons:

9.50MT vs. 10.50AT:
I do like the 10.50s better on 6" rims than the 9.50s for off road use anyway. The 10.50s air down a lot better and seem to have better side hill stability than the 9.50s.

I think they look a bit better on the stock toyota alloys. Those pics above are from last year. Here are some more current ones:
As for performance, they do fairly well. They are an AT, so they are a great on road/offroad combo tire. I have had some issues in the last year with traction, as they don't like to hook up when the truck gets vertical.

I think the ATs use a harder tread compound than the MTs. I found mine to be a little slipprier on rocks than MTs, like they wanted to slide off a rock every once in a while rather than hold the line you wanted. The trade off is you get better tread wear on the road.

So many choices it is mind boggling.
I think I would need something more for rocks and mud. Though this will be on the highway it is not going to be my commuter.
Thanks for all the input and pictures though. Exactly what I was looking for.
