33-12.50 vs 33-10.50

i getting new tires but i cant decide which size i dont wont the side of my truck to rust out because of the 12.50 and i live on a gravel road but i wont the look , and 10.50 look to narrow but it wont get any thing on the side of the truck .what do you guys think

 

12.5's and bushwhackers

 

hate to sound like a DA but what are bush
whackers

 

never mind i got ya now but they are high and i don't wont to cut any thing

 

do 12.50 keep te side of your truck dirty all the time

 

Obvious question: why not go with 11.5s then?

 

love my 33x(approx) 11.5's. Sitting next to the 33x12.5s on my jeep, you can't tell a difference.

 

I have 12.5's and 4.0 back spacing and yes the sides of my truck always get dirty

 

haha if they made 33-11.50-15 i would shit my pants

 

i live on a dirt/gravel road so i think my truck might get thrashed every day with 12.50

 

I really like the look of the 10.5's. I've got that size on my 1977 FJ40.

On the Tacoma the 255/85/16.

 

ya right now its between duratracks in 33-12.50-15 or KM2s in 33-10.50 cant decide and i need to order them tomo

 

285/85/15 is pretty close if such a size exists.

 

i think im goin with the 33-10.50 KM2 its not like this is the only set of tires i will ever have so if i dont like the 10.50 i will try some 12.50 next time

 

I love the look of 12.5's but when I jump up to 33's I'm doing 10.5 because they'll tuck in a little better and bite harder on dirt due to the narrower tread width instead of drift. I live on a gravel road and my 32x 11.5 bfg's will throw up a rock or 2 every time I drive down it

 

ya i cant afford to tare the shit out of my truck for wide tires 10.50 go better in the trails to thanks guys im gonna save some bucks bucks to

 

If you run a wider rim it will make the tire look wider.
Just a thought.

 

I have 33x12.50 KM2s and I would rather have 10.50s....

 

what kinda prices you seein?

 

the lowest was 175
