32x 11.5 or 33x 10.5

I am getting new tires soon along with a 2'' body lift. Im debating on getting 32x11.5 or 33x10.5. Would 33s be too tall for a 2'' body lift?

I know I can fit either one stock but im going for what would look best.

Thanks for any opinions

Heres pics of what my runner looks like now. The tires are 30x9.5s

go 33s. i have 33x10.50s on my 4runner with no lift at all, and they don't rub. honestly, if i were you. I'd stay away from the 2" body lift, and keep with the 33x10.50s. pull the plastic off the inner fender and your mud flaps and they wont rub.

yep go with 33's. if you go any bigger than a 10.5 wide you will run into problems. also a 1" Toytec Body Lift wouldnt hurt and help prevent any rubbing problems when flexing.

I have 33x12.50's on a 2" lift, they do rub with full stuff though :/ a 3" lift should clear 33's no prob.

33x10.5. i had 32x11.5 for years and really the extra tire width had no positive effect at all

There's lots of options for 33x10.50s. not only does BFG make a road friendly 33x10.50 now, so does Toyo ( i recommend BFG, my Toyo's stunk ) but honestly, I tried talking myself into getting a body lift, but I couldn't do it. I hate the gap, the shorter shifters, and overall the look. plus raising bumpers is a pain when you cant weld.

from my perspective, I'm locked, armored and rolling on 33x10.50s KM2s. a lift will be the last thing I will do.

my vote is also for 33X10.50's. They look great on a stock suspension truck. Should be better in snow as well. At least in theory.

I can weld so raising the front bumper up to stock height wont be a prob, same with the shifters, ill weld em for now then save money for the short throw kit from URD and cut the shifters once i get the short throw kit.

the gap on the frame isnt that bad, my buddy has a 94 PU with a 3'' BL and 33s, its not bad.


But for now since I just spent money on new springs and shocks, ill stay with the body lift, later down the road ill get some OME 900s

much easier to work on with a bl, makes more room for sliders etc..

a wide tire does better in deep snow/sand. but one inch probably wouldn't make much of a difference.

op, be sure to post some pics of your ride with the new tires

lol well the gap can be covered with sliders. the shifter shortness is what changed my mind...

Oh I you know I will be posting pics once I get new tires and the body lift lol

Ive been waiting for 4crawler to send it out for over a week. He keeps telling me its being fab'ed still.

Mak92-Theres a thread on here about a short throw shifter kit from URD that will raise up the shifter to stock height if you go to a body lift. http://www.urdusa.com/product_info.p..._id=1230100042
