anybody running 33"s on 20"s?

Its about time for new tires, and I'm thinking of going with 33"s instead of 35"s, but would like to see some trucks with 6" lifts with 33"s on 20"s. Also any good ideas on an aggressive tread street tire, I've got Terra Grapplers, but I commute quite a bit each day and these things just dont last like I need.....

When you down grade the tire size that might help the tread last longer as well as help with the MPG's. What kind of tires are you looking at? How long does the terra grapplers last you? The terra grapplers are a pretty decent tire for the tread they have. No matter what you do with a semi aggressive tire your gonna get poor tread wear.

i am running 35 inch toyo open country m/t's and they are great offroad and just as good on road! i have about 40k on mine and still about 25% tread left! definately buying another set! whats nice is they are a 10 ply as well so they are great for trailer pulling without hassle as well! good luck deciding!

personnaly 33s on 20s look kind of wierd they only have about a 5 inch sidewall hieght so they kind of make them look smaller than what they really are compared to a 35 or 37 inch tall tire my previous rig i had 39.5x18 16.5 boggers and they look gigantinc compared to my buddys with 38s on 20inch rims
