Will it look stupid?

So I haven't had time to do my swap over the winter and summer is coming very soon. I need my 4runner for camping in a month and it currently won't get out of it's own way.

Current setup: 4" Suspension, 3" BL, 3.Slow, 4.88 gears, 36x15.50 tires.

What I want to do for the summer: All of the above but put 33x12.50 BFG AT's for the beach and light trails (no real mud).

Do you think it's going to look retarded with 33's at this height?

Taking the BL off is out, so please if that is your suggestion just don't comment, when the swap is done it will recieve brand new BFG KO TA's (35's).

Im not adverse to doing the 5.29 gears but I work for a dealership (Nissan Parts dept.) and I get tires dirt cheap, I have an Xterra daily that I will throw the 33's on after this summer. So none of the this will go to waste.

Thanks in advance.

imo, no. im at 6" and run 33s. but if you think it will, you could try removing a rear spring or block and back off on your torsion bars to get it a little lower. besides who really cares if it mite look a little goofy, its only for a summer.

I ran 33" BFg all terrain's on 15x10 rims with that setup for a while. Didn't look bad at all and ran great on the highway with those gears.
