12.5 on front 14.5 on back? craigslist sucks

So craigslist whooped my ars again... i bought a set of 33 12.5 super swamper TSLs from a guy and a bunch of spares and the bead is blown out on one the TSLs so i have been trying to find another one so i have a set, needless to say i have had no luck. A friend of mine has 2, 33 14.5 super swamper boggers for cheap so my question is, do I buy the boggers and run them on the back end? or do i cut my loses and sell the TSLs and take a $200=$300 hit? god i HATE craigslist!!!!!

Depends on your rim backspacing but at full flex probably. Yeah it wont really made a difference, alot of cars do it.

My neighbor had the same set up with the 12.50's on front and 14.50's on the rear, just do a little fender cutting and smashing and hitting then it will be fine when ya flex out

Yea you should be fine my buddy runs 33x14x15 boggers on the rear and 33x13x15 ltbs upfront works great but are ur tsl's radials? Because if so they'll be about 2 inches taller then the boggers

wow i haven't been on in a while but thanks everyone for the info i still haven't pulled the trigger on the deal yet. The TSLs are bias and i have no idea about the boggers but i think i have been persuaded by you guys. thanks again for the info

No matter what, make sure that when on rims the measure out to the same height. If not binding and breaking will follow....

well i know they have to be the same height on the axle like from left to right but does it have to be the same front to rear? like if the tires on the rear end match up to each other but they are taller than the fronts? if that even makes any sense...
