Whats more of a power loss + 33x10.5 vs 32x11.5

Hey got a newbie question, recently did a 5 speed swap on my 22re 4runner and I wanted to know what would be a better choice. Truck has stock (auto) 4.30 gears. Not sure whether the wider tires, or taller tires would have a greater impact.

I have a link on a set of 33x10.5x15 but not sure if the truck will be livable with them. I am currently running 30x9.5x15s. Thanks

the 33x10.50s will be a bigger power loss.

however... the 33x10.50's will have less wind resistance/ rolling resistance. Have you check the wieght of both tire sizes of the same brand tire?

They are both BFG A/T. I am going to grab them anyway and sell them if its too bad. Just cant pass this deal up.
