    I've just ordered my 2" body lift kit (already have the 2" longer spring and uprated torsion bars) so a total of 4" lift. I would like some 33" tyres.
    What is better? 33x12 or 33x10,50?
    I will be fitting a winch bumper once I get the body lift kit fitted so will have more clearance on the front arches. And plan to make a new rear tubular bumper as I bent mine whilst playing in the mud. Also will be making some rock sliders.

    Now if I go for 33x12 I presume I will need wider wheels?

    What make of wheel is good "value for money"? I'm not overly fused about look as its function over form.

    Secondly I am currently running kumho kl71MT's which I am quite impressed with for on and off road use.
    Would you recommend I stick with kumho or try another. The car is used fairly regularly on road but I also like to go to pay and play sites on a bi-monthly basis so need a tyre that will grip I the sloppy stuff.
    Thanks

      Go for 12.5s, way better having the extra surface area in shingle beds and loose stuff.

      Ill second that, my 33's are still sitting on 15x7 rims at the moment (waiting to pick up my 15x10s in next few weeks) and corners are horrible
      The side wall just tucks under so far and feels so unstable I have to take corners extra slow for now, 12.5 tyres on 7 inch rims is pulling the side walls in a lot it looks stupid
      Its a new truck, Because every parts been replaced
