how much size will i lose?
So i have 33's on my ranger now but my dad is just killing me with all this i just think one size smaller blah blah blah, i say 32 is the smallest i even told him that i would buy the 32's to satisfy him. Being that im only 16 i do have to obey but how mucch of a difference could i really tell in height from 33 to 32?

Re: how much size will i lose?
you will lose 1/2 an inch if you get the same tire as you have now, seeing as every tire height is different, but you only lose half an inch on height. you will gain some performance and see an mpg increase. i say do it.

Re: how much size will i lose?
as far as a mud terrain, look towards the bfg km2, or the hanook dynapro, there are lots of good tires, depends on what type of wheeling you do, and your budget.

Re: how much size will i lose?
hahaha yeah, to each his own, as far as the tires, it will look funky with anything smaller than the 32s, but the 4.10 gearing is fine for the 33s.

Re: how much size will i lose?
yeah if ya got 4.10's youre good. But i can see where gas is killer. Im getting about 14 now if i drive how i wanna and im about to BL and add 33's so ill probably be f'ed cause i kinda have a hard time with gas now. But if i get a job for summer in my tourist driven town ill be fine. The winter is what does it. Just tell him its gunna look super weird if you dont get at leasssst 32's.
