The number one question i see asked on yotatech is about tire sizes, and so many people ask if 33x10.50 will work on stock suspension. So today I decided I needed some new tires for my 4runner and ordered me a set of BF-G A/T tires. I will have them mounted Thursday so I'll post some pics. Goin to break them in at Windrock Sat. if anyone is interested.

 

Cool. I should be getting a set of them in the next few weeks too.

 

There are plenty of us who prove that it works...

 

hey T-money - Where in Cleveland are you located? I'll be up there this weekend, and trying to get a small group together to go to Mt. Aetna in Chatt-town on Sunday afternoon, let me know man!! Shoot me a PM!

 

Well got the tires today and I really like them. I hit 80 on the interstate so they dont seem to bog me down with the stock gears. I hammered the pinch welds but thats about it. No rubbing on flat ground. I will give them a better test this weekend.



/\ /\- bad pic



Also bolted my lift on the rollbar.

 

They look good man!! Like the hi-lift mount too, if you flip the bolt around though, you can just put it on with a wing nut, If we meet up this weekend, make sure to check mine out...

 

Looks really nice man!!

 

Looks good man!! I never thought it'd be a problem on stock wheels, it's when you go to a wider wheel, that you get problems. Let us know how the trail treats you.

 

So am I safe to assume that if you can get 33's on stock wheels that 32's would be no problem?

 

you are correct sir.

 

Yes, but if 33's fit, why would you do 32's?

 

hijack

Tc - i would just like to say, if i could start over on everything i'd done to my 4runner, i'd pretty much do everything you did. I've noticed lately that I envy the trucks on here with little to no lift, 33x10.50s, lots of armor and locked. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

unhijack

those tires look great...i've got the same ones

 

hey tc, what kind of backspacing is best for an 8" rim with 33x10.5's to fit?

 

Ummm - whatever is the same as the stock 7" ers...

I know - lots of help. LOL

 

T$, so what's the 411 on this weekend?? How did your truck do w/the 33's? I bought some 33 this weekend too. Not on the truck yet though.

 

some people prefer width over height i suppose.

 

Hey T$, let us know how they did on the trail at windrock. I am interested to know. The run at Aetna went reall well.... check out my thread HERE

 

well i went up to windrock this weekend and had a pretty good time. the tires did surprisingly well in the mud. i was impressed. it was very dry overall but we did find some nasty wet spots... in the dry dirt and on the rocks i had no complaints at all. awsome traction... the day got cut short when i had no clutch. i had no fluid in the resovoir and had to creep out in first gear. that sucked... no store was open so i had to drive about 20 miles shifting gears without a clutch... if i stoped my friends would have to push me so it would go in first. i had to make lots of right hand turns and u- turns... but other than that it was great. and the tires didnt rub that bad either. i would def go with these tires again.

 

Wow... really?? And you said your Runner is bone stock right?? I bought some 33's, but they are 13.50's... I'm having people tell me I need to do all kindsa stuff to get them in there.. I might have to change my mind about these tires and start looking for a trade or so..

EDIT: and how does it drive w/the 33's and stock gears? You have 4:10s and a 22RE right?

 

Hey T, I bet there is brake fluid (from the clutch master) all in your drivers side floorboard, under the carpet. you can fill the master back up, and bleed the slave (passenger side of the tranny, near the front) and then replace your master cylinder when youhave time, just watch the fluid level.
