    I have a 2012 Tacoma 4x4 access cab 4cyl, 5spd. I just got a 3 inch leveling kit and an inch and a quarter in the rear. I can't decide whether to go with the 31.5 bgf mud terrains or the 33's? I want to get the 33's but I don't know how much power I would lose which is a concern for me. I'm not too worried about gas mileage. So if anyone has a 4cyl 2nd gen Tacoma I would love to hear about how it drives or any suggestions you could give me. Anything helps, thanks.

    The 31.5's are gonna look funny with 3'' of lift, i'd find the metric equivalent of a 32 or 32.5'' and run that.

    If you're worried about power loss, go with the 31's. Going to a 33 will have a slight difference in power and performance. The 33's would definitely look better with the leveling kit, and I personally wouldn't be too concerned with the loss. But it's up to you brotha. Just remember, never skip leg day when it comes to tires! ;)
