    :notsure: difference in rim width/offset?[/QUOTE]

    Didn't even think of that


    Yeah I had a good amount of fuel, about 60%. Possibly more.

    I'm at 3.75" backspace, ditched the spacers... Wheels are pacer aluminum 15x8.[/QUOTE]

    Same here!

    He is @ 3.75" backspacing too. Who knows. They both look bad ass to me...[/QUOTE]

    Lol, thanks brotha

    They have the same wheel width/backspacing/offset. Just different style wheels.

    JohnboyTRD, and Ferny, what kind of power loss did you guys experience with stock gears, and 33x12.50s?

    It is noticeable, that's for sure. Especially when going on moderate inclines. 33x12.5 is doable on stock gears, but a regear is ideal IMHO. I don't regret it for one second though. Also, didn't notice power or mpg difference between 33x10.5 and 33x12.5. As far as mpg... The lift has been the biggest effect on mpg, I think (only got ug while on 33x10.5). Overall with mostly city driving, a bit of hwy driving here and there, and one day of wheeling per month, my total avg mpg is ~ 15.5

    Considering the city, combined and hwy are 14/16/18 respectively, I'm not bummed by the numbers considering all the extra weight and drag :)

    Thats not bad.. I got 15-16 mpg with 33x10.50 with my toyota pickup. But it was sooooo slow. I dont really drive fast but still... I was thinking 33x10.50s on my tacoma but I really hate to regear when I dont really offroad much. I just wanted to know because yours's and Ferny's trucks look awesome with the 12.50s lol. I'm probably going the same route as Timmy if I can aquire a 4door
