I've currently got 31 x 10.5's on my hilux and I need new tyres and want to go bigger. I've got an as new cheap set of 33 x 9.5's lined up. Would it look funny, or would there be any other problems by downsizing from a 10.5 wide tyre to a 9.5 wide tyre?

They will handle differently on corners compared to wider tires.. Also less resistance on the tar which CAN get better economy depending on driver and conditions etc.
but there can be advantages with narrow tires in mud or crap like that.
