33X12.50R15 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/AKO RWL

Thanks Steve!! I know that this particular tire size is very popular around here.

I am going to go ahead and sticky this. I hope Brett doesn't mind.

No problem, I noticed some of the stock sizes are called out also- 235/75-15s one of the 16" sizes IIRC.
 






Hmmm just came here to post today's experience and then see this....

I just had a flat this morning and went to get it fixed. At the tire shop it was determined that the flat was not caused by anything puncturing the tire, but the same area as described had bubbled up and the air was leaking through one of the bubbles. After inspecting all of my tires they were actually all like that, just the others weren't leaking. The bubbles were the size of peas and were in between every tread on the outer edges of the tires. I had BFG AT KO 31x10.50xR15's. I replaced all 4 tires with a new set. I did have plenty of miles on that set of tires, so I wonder if the tires were just past their life or if there was any defect from earlier tires also which could mean the new ones could eventually have problems too.... :(
 












I wish. LOL I didn't notice this thread until after I got the tires, plus mine weren't in the list of recalled tires. I just thought it odd that my old tires had the same problem as described.


Man I had forgotten how bad they pick up small gravels when they have new tread... :rolleyes:
 






What Fits

Just to let you all know...I have 33 x 10.5 BFG MT's installed on my 92 with a 4" lift. I had trim some of the inner fender to prevent rubbing. Other than that no other body mods needed.
