not much difference really, your truck will sit half an inch lower with 32s, like the others said, the price is great.

Why did you buy them for $750?

They aint the bargain they were at $500.

Why do they suck?

they suck cause they dont look like what i thought they would near my mav and when i went to pick them up the lady said she had offers of $700 for them so i paid and extra 50 to buy them! i rang her and asked if she would take them back but when she told me the exact words "bad luck the moneys spent!" i relised she is right i should have takin my maverick over to sit them near and check before i bought them! lesson learnt this way! no ones fault but mine.

Should have told her to take the offers. Farkin' hate people when they pull that shit. :bad-words:
Apparently people think I'm too patronising (that means I treat them like they’re stupid).

So whats wrong with the LOOK.. ? Try them, learn what your car can do before you cry too much... the car will be more capable than you or most of us are.

Any other brands of tyres run out a 33 x 10.5/11.5 ?

just curious as I don't have the space for 12.5's without better offset wheels

I think you'll find that most major mud and some all terrain tyre makers do offer that size.
If you're after extreme traction, most of the Simex tyres like the ET's don't really go any wider than 10.5"

why do they suck, surely the look difference of 32s or 33s aint going to be much different, if you hate em that much ill give you $500 for em

interesting as i run these exact tyres on mine on toyo offset they fill out the guards right to the edge of the flare and they run great compared to all terrains as i have had noting different but i am going to try 33 claws next.

they did rub the mudflaps until the 2" lift went in.

Familybus,
You need to work on your negotiating skills!! :D

Should have offered her $700 if thats what she was offloading them for, why pay the extra $50? :rofl:

$700 is 700 from whereever or whoever it comes from?!!

For $150 each, ur still laughing, new they are $230+

I got them on my Hilux and they look GREAT, mb u should sell ur MQ and buy a hilux so then the tyres look GREAT as well! :finger:

I shoulda kept them in hind sight, but I needed the cash so they went.
