I was wondering what the advantages and disadvantages of each size is (33x10.50 vs 33x12.50). I only want to do a 4 inch lift so that is why I was looking at the 10.50s, plus I can use my stock rims and save some $$. Are they going to dig to China? Also, is it going to cause much of a difference in side hilling? Of course I don't wanna roll. Thanks for any suggestions.

if your whelling on sand or lose greavel get the wider tread. the skinier tread will help on your turning radius.

Yeah, that makes sense. Anyone else? Are the 10.50s going to make the vehicle more prone to roll?

Roll resistance depends on the overall tire width from side to side of the truck. If the outside edges of the 10.50s vs 12.50s are at the same distance, the rollover risk will be the same.

However, 12.50s will give you better handling and overall feel.

I just upgraded my tires from a 33 x 9.50 to a 34 x 10.50, I have the 6" lift on mine. The only difference I noticed was that I have to watch my turning radius. Other than that, no problems.

If you go with the 12.5, check your backspacing. I have my rims sticking out alittle bit, but because of the wide stance I get a LOT of rubbing. I'm having to go glass fenders because of it. I do however like the look and stance of the wider rims, tires, and backspacing.

Great! Thanks for all the input. I will probably have to go with a slightly narrower tire since I con't want to have to chop up my fenders too much. Probably a 32x11.50 with 4 inches of lift. Thats an alright compromise.
