I have a set of 33 x 12.5's that are mounted on 8.5 in. wide rims which gives them a little higher profile but still maintains 12.5 on the road, but for normal road running I use 31 x 10.5's . The 33 x 12.5's look nice but they want to grab every crack in the road and get poorer milage.
Good luck,

I was looking for some good all-terrain tires for my bronco that are wide because i have some goodyear baja champions on there now and there so skinny the look like pizza boxes, and i have another stupid question my tire size is 31/10.5R15 what is the 10.5 for because i see alot of 33/12.5/R15 and i was just wondering if it would fit?
I got good years also, there skinny but there good.

also you may need to get different rims for the 33's I believe they require minimun of 8.5in. rim width, your stock rims might not quite make that.
this is not accurate information. 12.50" wide tires can be mounted on 8" wide wheels, you'll jst need to keep the air pressure down to about 22-25 psi to keep even tread wear. running the narrower wheels will also allow you to air down more off road, creating less ground pressure, and reducing your chances of popping a bead.

I have 35x12.50x16.5's on my f250 and they are on 12 inch wheels whenever i forget to air back up I can tell as soon as i get on the road the handling is crap and it's really unstable.
