Help a new guy and weigh in on 33 vs 35?????
So can't make up my mind about going with 35x12.5r15 BFG AT TA ko VS 33x12.50r15 BFG MT km2??????
So could a few of you exsperienced jeep guys let me know what you would do? I want to keep the weight down thats why I choose those two set ups.
My jeep is a 2007 X with factory 4.10 and the D44 rear.
Thanks for the help....

Anyone I have talked to or seen who were anywhere REMOTELY close to thinkin about getting 35's over 33's sincerely regret not just going with the 35's. Weight isn't going to be that much of a difference in my opinion. Not like you are going from stock to 37's or 40's. So, my thoughts.....go with the 35's right from the get-go....cause truth be told, when you get the 35's, you're gonna want 37's! haha

Also if you have an auto trans, the 35s will have a huge effect on your highway acceleration. 33's and 4.10s/3.8l motor will still be ok. I had a 6 speed '07 with 4.10s and 35s and it was slow on the highway, barely used 5th gear anymore. Plus I only averaged 14_15 mpg.

Is there really that big of a difference between a 35 and 33. So radius wise its 1 inch total and weight wise their pretty close.
I cant imagine that the power loss compared from a 33 to a 35 is that significant or that it would cost you more than 1-2 miles per gallon? Or am I way off?
Anybody made the switch from 33's to 35's who knows?
