Crazy Idea!

I don't think i'd do this but... could you run BFG AT KO 33X10.50 in the front to slove steering clearance probs and a BFG AT KO 33X12.50 in the rear for better traction?

Sure, why not? A friend of mine had a set of Mickey Thompson 35-15.50's in front of his dually and dual 35-11.50's in the rear. Worked just fine. Check manufacturers specs on the tires though, tires of a given listed diameter vary in true diameter. Also, putting a 10.50 and a 12.50 on the same width rim can result in different diameters. Probably need to use a 8" rim in front and a 10" rim in the back.

i know of ppl who run boggers on the rear and sx's on the front, when it comes time that they really need rotation on the front, they just reverse the way they are mounted on the rim
