yeah that's what I figured
The extra width actually makes fark all diff to grip mate it's the 2" larger diamater that'll do it
Whatever floats ya boat but should look mucho cool either way

OMFG there is a huge difference between 10.5 and 12.5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
10.5 dig great in the mud giving you more traction. The 12.5 just slip on the slopes like my soapy hand on dirty rock stars left nipple. But the 12’5 give heaps more traction on the rock and flex over stuff heaps better.

It just makes it a prick when your half way up a steep hill with loose surface and you just slide backwards into a tree. Trust me this happens regularly

get your license aza
you just want the 12.5s cos they look phat eh ryan?
looks pretty sweet, and looks like u've got enuf clearance for it to still flex.... ya driven anything with them in? i'm guessing u like the s3 in high range now?
33 mtr's have bigger tread blocks, so they're gonna wear a bit slower than your 31s...

Whats all this talk about deciding beetween 10s and 12.5" Just go straight for the 14" boggers they do look phat!!! And they get plenty of traction in the mud and rock.
